Last week’s poll turned the spotlight on the three new Redmi Note 14 series phones and only one of them came out as the winner. The other two may have cut too much out of the spec sheet to be competitive in the mid-range segment.
Redmi Note 14 series at a glance
The polls give the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ a huge lead over its siblings. The lead can only grow if the phone handles itself well in reviews (we’re working on ours). While it’s quite similar to the regular Pro, the addition of a telephoto camera (50MP 60mm), a faster chipset (Snapdragon 7s Gen 3) and the option for faster storage (UFS 3.1 on 256+ gig models), plus the larger battery with faster charging (6,200mAh, 90W) are well worth it for the price.
The Redmi Note 14 Pro is cheaper, but most people rejected it as an option. It shares some flaws with the Pro+, for example, people weren’t happy about the 8MP ultra-wide, but it doesn’t have the extra features of the Pro+ to compensate.
The Redmi Note 14 is the cheapest of the bunch and most people ignored it, but it did have a few fans – it’s the only one of the three with a microSD card and a 3.5mm headphone jack. Depending on where your priorities are, this could be a solid mid-range pick.
Xiaomi will be bringing the Redmi Note 14 series to Europe, but details are still kept under wraps. We do have an inkling of how much they will cost, though.
