The Xiaomi 14 has landed in the Philippines just a few days after its global debut. As the next-generation smartphone of their mainline numbered series, the 14 has all the goodies of a near-flagship device including a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, the new Xiaomi HyperOS, and of course, Leica-powered imaging.
Much like its predecessor, the 14 comes in a compact factor with a 6.36-inch 2670 x 1200 1 – 120Hz LTPO AMOLED – a screen size we don’t see nowadays. Despite its relatively diminutive size, it will still come with the flagship-class Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset with 12GB LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage.
Xiaomi has continued its partnership with Leica to develop lenses for the smartphones. On the Xiaomi 14, it will pack a triple rear camera setup with a 50MP f/1.6 main camera, a 32MP f/2.0 telephoto, and a 50MP f/2.2 ultrawide lens. At the front is a 32MP f/2.0 selfie camera.
It does have a comparatively smaller 4,610mAh battery to the more standard 5,000mAh capacity. The smartphone, however, will come with 90W HyperCharge and 50W Wireless HyperCharge to make filling its reserves faster.
