Weibo user WhyLab confirmed Redmi Note 15 Pro+ recently received certification from China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). This confirms support for satellite messaging via the BeiDou system, a milestone that isn’t just a first for the Note series, but for Redmi as a whole. Even the higher-end K and K Ultra lineups haven’t yet adopted satellite features.

According to well-known tipster Digital Chat Station, the satellite messaging function will be exclusive to the Note 15 Pro+, and not all variants will include it. Xiaomi reportedly plans to offer this feature in a special edition of the phone, likely as a way to keep costs down while catering to users who truly need off-grid communication.

Satellite messaging, which enables users to send and receive texts without cellular coverage, has so far been limited to flagship models. Redmi’s move signals a significant shift, making the feature more accessible in the mid-range segment.

The phone is also tipped to include a quad-curved OLED display with slim, symmetrical bezels and a 1.5K resolution. On the imaging front, users can expect a 50MP primary sensor with a large sensor size, accompanied by a 50MP telephoto lens.
Other features include symmetrical dual stereo speakers for an immersive audio experience. The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ is expected to launch in August, as part of Xiaomi’s traditional summer release cycle.
