Xiaomi has launched four variants of the Redmi Note 14 Series.

The newly released Redmi Note 14 series include the standard Redmi Note 14 and the Redmi Note 14 Pro models, both offering robust LTE connectivity support without 5G support.

Introducing the Xiaomi Redmi Note 14/Pro Series.

External Design

Much the same as the POCO X Series design, the Redmi base model and its Redmi Note 14 Pro variant exhibit notable yet low-key differences. The Pro model boasts a gracefully curved body design that elevates its aesthetic appeal beyond that of the standard version. Furthermore, the rear camera’s LED flash in the Pro model is externally positioned and encased inside a protective “ring”, enhancing both functionality and style. As for the display, it’s more likely that the Pro also features a curved display.

Color variants

Whether you prefer a classic look or something more eye-catching, these color options provide a nice variety to cater to different preferences. The blend of these colors elevates the smartphone’s design, presenting a chic option for tech aficionados. The Redmi Note 14 is available in the color options listed in the table below:

Display

The Redmi Note 14 Series boasts displays with an impressive 120Hz refresh rate. The Pro models boast a remarkable 1.5K resolution and an astonishing peak brightness of 3,000 nits, guaranteeing outstanding clarity even in direct sunlight, as I confirmed during my outdoor tests. These displays deliver vibrant visuals and effortless transitions, making them ideal for passionate streamers and gamers alike.

Blue light eye protection.

Focusing on eye comfort is essential, particularly when using screens for extended periods. The latest series is outfitted with TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light certification, flicker-free technology, and circadian-friendly modes. These advancements ensure that extended activities—be it scrolling through social media or indulging in a binge-watching session—are significantly easier on your eyes.

Enhanced Camera System featuring AI technology

The highly anticipated Redmi Note 14 Series is set to deliver an exceptional camera system, as evidenced by its impressive specifications. The Pro models feature a stunning 108MP AI camera with optical image stabilization (OIS), allowing users to capture incredible detail and clarity.

The Pro+ model features impressive 2x and 4x lossless zoom capabilities, delivering sharp and vibrant images. However, a comprehensive review requires further testing. For those with a creative flair, the Pro+ model’s impressive 30x digital zoom unlocks a world of exciting possibilities to explore.

The base and 5G variants of the Redmi Note 14 are equipped with a 108MP AI camera system that offers vibrant colors and sharpness. The front cameras have been upgraded to at least 20MP and include a 0.8x wide-angle zoom, which is suitable for capturing group shots.

AI image enhancement tools

Xiaomi has also added several creative tools, such as Dynamic Shots for subtle motion effects and Dual Video, which simultaneously records from both the front and rear cameras. Pro models also come with AI Image Expansion for immersive backgrounds and AI Erase Pro to remove unwanted objects — a godsend for quick edits without relying on third-party apps.

Outstanding quality and craftsmanship.

Xiaomi highlights the impressive durability of the Redmi Note 14 Series. The Pro models feature an All-Star Armor Structure, which includes reinforced aluminum composite frames and Gorilla Glass Victus 2, offering enhanced resistance to drops and scratches.

Protection from dirt and water

The Pro models also have IP68 water and dust resistance, making them reliable companions for rugged adventures. Meanwhile, the Redmi Note 14 5G offers IP64 protection, and the base model features IP54 resistance — still a respectable level for everyday use.

Pricing and availability

The Redmi Note 4 series offers three impressive memory configurations: 6GB/128GB, 8GB/128GB, and 8GB/256GB. The entry-level model is attractively priced at €200/£180, while the mid-tier variant is available for €230/£230. Please keep in mind that retail prices and availability may vary by region.
