Xiaomi has recently launched its flagship smartphone, Xiaomi 14 Pro, an upgrade to the company’s previous flagship, Xiaomi 13 Pro. Xiaomi 14 Pro includes several new features and upgrade, including a new design, a better camera system, and a powerful processor.
In this blog, we will provide the Xiaomi 14 Pro review and determine if it is currently one of the best flagship smartphones available. Let’s Start!
Xiaomi 14 Pro Unboxing
The box of Xiaomi 14 Pro is quite simple and includes only a few things: smartphones, a USB-C Type-C charger, a USB-C type-C data cable, a SIM Ejector Tool, and a Quick Start Guide. The box does not include a cover or screen protector, so you have to buy them separately.
Design and construction
Xiaomi 14 Pro comes with a very attractive and premium design, which is made from a combination of glass and metal. The front panel of the phone is almost completely bezel-less, providing a great viewing experience. The rear panel of the device is also quite stylish, and it is available in four different colors: Black, White, Green and Blue.
when it comes to back design, even after a week of use, I still find the back design of this time very simple, and I also feel that it is enough to see the back of the phone from a few angles It’s heavy.
For large camera bump, vertical leaky logo, and chlouse de Paris texture, it is very strange to use such treatment on a round design phone. Some may say that this is a heritage from the design language of the Xiaomi 13 series, but I would say that it is a compromise design for me, such as fitting your feet into shoes that do not fit.
Finally, it is notable that Xiaomi 14 Pro uses Dragon Crystal Glass, which is really strong according to some tests within China. Take this picture as an example, the metal frame is shattered but the screen is still ignorant. This is a little exaggerated, but it can prove that the dragon crystal glass is not a promotional trick.
Display
The Xiaomi 14 Pro has a 6.73 -inch Ltpo AMOLED display that offers 2K resolution and 120Hz refresh rates. The color reproduction of the display is excellent, and it is very bright, so that it is easily visible even in direct sunlight. The display also has Corning Gorilla Glass Victus Protection, which prevents scratches and breakdowns.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is the best phone chip ever. Yes, better than A17 Pro. I did not expect that last year’s 8 Gen 2 would improve so much if it is already so strong. Let’s start with its architecture. This time not only the CPU is getting a frequency bump, but it is also swaping a small core for another. The powerful GPU is further increased to frequency and size. The chip is created by TSMC N4P, so thermal issues should not occur.
Well, when it comes to the benchmark session, you can clearly see that 8 Gen 3 has defeated other chips in the case of multi-core score, compared to A17 Pro still in single core performance. There are gaps, but overall I think the 8 GEN 3 CPU performance is equal to the A17 Pro. Let’s walk on the next page. Wow, still with the highest score and the A17 Pro is much less power consumption than Pro. It seems that stability is also not a major problem.
In terms of GPU performance, it is safe to say that no one can match the performance of SOC 8 Gen 3 on any phone. In GPU benchmark, there is still 20% improvement compared to 8 Gen 2.

Processor
Xiaomi 14 Pro is equipped with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Jane 3 chipset, which is currently one of the most powerful mobile processors available in the market.
Together with this chipset, the phone ranges from 8GB to 16GB and storage ranging from 128GB to 1TB. This hardware combination is capable of handling any type of task, whether it is gaming, video editing or multitasking.
Camera
The Xiaomi 14 Pro has a triple rear camera setup which includes 50MP main sensor, 50MP telephoto sensor and 12MP ultravide sensor.
The camera setup is tuned by Leica, a famous German camera manufacturer. The camera setup is capable of taking excellent photos, whether it is day or night.
Instead of 1 -inch sensor of Sony for the main camera sensor of Xiaomi 14 Pro, Xiaomi uses 1/1.31 -inch sensor of 14 pro omnivision – The Light Hunter 900 – and with a large F1.4 aperture lens adds up.
Seriously, I was very curious to see how well the camera would perform, first of all some photos are taken here. (Photos) I really like Xiaomi’s Laika camera, most of us do not need pictures that maintain a lot of information about highlights and shadows, we just want good looking pictures and i’m glad that Xiaomi has done this.
In terms of shooting experience, the image on the camera of Xiaomi 14Pro is only 30fps, but when using 13Pro is 60fps, which is very strange.
Finally, when it comes to telephoto lens, Xiaomi 14 and 14 Pro have a focal length of 2.6X and 2.9x respectively, meaning that Xiaomi 14 Pro is close to the original focal length and shoots with 3.2x. Time is also better image quality.
Overall, I am very happy with Xiaomi 14Pro’s camera enhancement, and in addition to powerful hardware, Leica imaging has made it easier for me to take good color photos.
