Global Debut Already Underway:

Before hitting Indian shores, the Xiaomi 14 and its Pro variant made their global debut on February 25th, 2024. This means we already have a good idea of the specifications and features to expect.

Expected Specs of Xiaomi 14:

• Display: The base model could boast a 6.36-inch 1.5K LTPO OLED display, while the Pro version might sport a slightly larger and curved 6.73-inch QHD+ LTPO OLED panel, both offering smooth refresh rates for a premium viewing experience.
• Processor: Powering the device is likely to be the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, a powerhouse for multitasking and demanding applications.
• Camera: The camera system is where Xiaomi often shines, and the 14 series is no exception. The standard model might come with a triple rear camera setup (50MP main, 8MP ultrawide, 2MP macro), while the Pro variant could boast a quad-camera system (50MP main, 50MP telephoto with 2x optical zoom, 50MP ultrawide, and a dedicated 12MP portrait lens). Both are expected to be co-engineered with Leica, promising exceptional image quality.
• Battery: The standard model could pack a 4500mAh battery, while the Pro version might offer a larger 5000mAh capacity. Both are likely to support fast charging capabilities.

Pricing and Availability:

While official Indian pricing remains under wraps, global estimates suggest the Xiaomi 14 could start around Rs. 50,000 and the Pro variant might sit under the Rs. 80,000 mark. Availability details are also awaited, but we can expect major retailers and Xiaomi’s own channels to offer the phone for purchase.
