Redmi Book Pro 14 2024 • Redmi Book Pro 16 2024 • Redmi Display G Pro 27
The Redmi Book Pro 14 2024 has a 14” display with 2,880 x 1,800px resolution (16:10) and dynamic refresh rate up to 120Hz. The panel covers 100% of sRGB and promises up to 400 nits of brightness with DC dimming. The laptop has an all-metal body that measures 15.9mm thick and weighs 1.46kg.
The base configuration features an Intel Core Ultra 5 125H with 4 performance cores, 8 efficiency cores and 2 low power cores (18 threads total), plus 18MP L3 cache. This can be configured with 16GB of RAM and 512GB storage or 32GB and 1TB (the RAM is LPDDR5x 7,467MTs, the SSD is PCIe 4.0).
Intel Core Ultra 5 or 7 processor with dual fan cooling
For more power there is the Intel Core Ultra 7 155H with 6 performance cores, 8 efficiency cores and 2 low power cores (22 threads total), plus 24MB L3 cache. This one is available only with 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD.
The laptop relies on the integrated Intel Arc graphics. The Ultra 5 chip has 7 Xe cores at 2.2GHz, the Ultra 7 gets an extra Xe core and a slightly higher frequency at 2.25GHz. Both support hardware accelerated ray tracing and have NPU cores that speed up AI features in apps.
AI tasks include noise reduction, transcription, framing you in the center of the 1080p web camera and more. WPS AI will help you write documents, summarize existing ones and even help you out with formulas for a spreadsheet.
The 14” model has dual fans with dual heat pipes and can be cranked up to 65W TDP. It is powered by an 80Wh battery with 100W charging using a GaN adapter that is included in the packaging.

The Redmi Book Pro 16 2024 has a 16” display with 3,072 x 1,920px resolution (16:10) and a dynamic refresh rate that can go up to 165Hz. It is also brighter than the 14” panel at 500 nits while maintaining the 100% sRGB coverage and DDC dimming. Both support Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos with two 2W speakers.
The choice of processors is the same – Intel Core Ultra 5 125H or Ultra 7 155H – however this time the only memory configuration is 32GB of RAM and 1TB storage. The cooling is the same, though the larger body allows the TDP to go slightly higher at 70W.
Full-size keyboard with backlighting, 1.3mm key travelThe 16” laptop measures 15.9mm thick and weighs 1.88kg. This is with a larger 99Wh battery (the biggest that you can take on a plane) and comes with a faster 140W GaN adapter.
Charging is done over USB-C. Both laptops have one Thunderbolt 4, one USB-C, two USB-A 3.2 Gen1, an HDMI 2.1 port and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Network connectivity is handled by a Wi-Fi 6 (ax) adapter with 2x2 MIMO, there’s also Bluetooth 5.3.
The laptops run Windows 11 enhanced with HyperOS functions. You can use your Xiaomi phone’s camera as a wireless web cam, for example, or use the laptop’s keyboard to type out a message on a Xiaomi tablet.

It’s an IPS panel with 180Hz refresh rate and 1ms GTG response time plus FreeSync to avoid screen tearing if your GPU can’t hit 180 fps.

AMD based windows laptops are already faster than any apple laptop, even when unplugged. It just depends on the benchmark or application. Don't generalize.
