If you fancy something different from the latest Samsung or Apple, the Xiaomi 14 might be for you. With a versatile camera, lovely display, and top-notch specs in a relatively compact package, this refined Android smartphone will suit most folks.<\/p>\n<p>While Xiaomi reserves the truly cutting-edge stuff for its Ultra model (coming soon), the Xiaomi 14 is no slouch. More pocket-friendly in both senses, this is an elegant all-rounder with Xiaomi\u2019s revamped HyperOS over Android 14. At first glance it looks much like last year\u2019s Xiaomi 13, but improvements across the board make the Xiaomi 14 more tempting.<\/p>\n<p>Elegant Design<\/p>\n<div class=\"GroupCalloutWrapper-bPWknp ldUKUw callout callout--group callout--group-2\" data-testid=\"GroupCalloutWrapper\">\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed callout--group-item callout--group-item-1\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Xiaomi 14 smartphone next to other smartphones\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddec3f3315195138b938\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Gear-3-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddec3f3315195138b938\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/Gear-3-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddec3f3315195138b938\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/Gear-3-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddec3f3315195138b938\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/Gear-3-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 320w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddec3f3315195138b938\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/Gear-3-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 640w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddec3f3315195138b938\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/Gear-3-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 960w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddec3f3315195138b938\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/Gear-3-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddec3f3315195138b938\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/Gear-3-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"100vw\"\/><\/noscript><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd iggRJP fNaHcW caption__credit\">Photograph: Simon Hill<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"AssetEmbedWrapper-eVDQiB byBkf asset-embed callout--group-item callout--group-item-2\">\n<div class=\"AssetEmbedAssetContainer-eJxoAx dBHGoQ asset-embed__asset-container\"><span class=\"SpanWrapper-umhxW kGxnNB responsive-asset AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset\"><picture class=\"ResponsiveImagePicture-cWuUZO dUOtEa AssetEmbedResponsiveAsset-cXBNxi eCxVQK asset-embed__responsive-asset responsive-image\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Xiaomi 14 smartphone\" class=\"ResponsiveImageContainer-eybHBd fptoWY responsive-image__image lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddeb15073d8d1c3045e4\/master\/w_1600%2Cc_limit\/Gear-2-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddeb15073d8d1c3045e4\/master\/w_120,c_limit\/Gear-2-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 120w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddeb15073d8d1c3045e4\/master\/w_240,c_limit\/Gear-2-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 240w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddeb15073d8d1c3045e4\/master\/w_320,c_limit\/Gear-2-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 320w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddeb15073d8d1c3045e4\/master\/w_640,c_limit\/Gear-2-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 640w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddeb15073d8d1c3045e4\/master\/w_960,c_limit\/Gear-2-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 960w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddeb15073d8d1c3045e4\/master\/w_1280,c_limit\/Gear-2-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/media.wired.com\/photos\/65d8ddeb15073d8d1c3045e4\/master\/w_1600,c_limit\/Gear-2-Xiaomi_14_2-SOURCE-Simon-Hill.jpg 1600w\" data-sizes=\"100vw\"\/><\/noscript><\/picture><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"BaseWrap-sc-gjQpdd BaseText-ewhhUZ CaptionCredit-ejegDm iUEiRd iggRJP fNaHcW caption__credit\">Photograph: Simon Hill<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Xiaomi 14 is similar in size to my Pixel 8 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/review\/apple-iphone-14-pro-iphone-14-pro-max\/\">iPhone 14 Pro<\/a>, but the design is closer to Apple\u2019s phone, with flat edges around the frame. The dominant, square camera module at the top left of the back has a stepped design. It\u2019s not too heavy at 193 grams and is a fine size for most folks to manage one-handed. The curved glass on the back is a fingerprint-resistant matte black on my review unit, but it also comes in white or a more interesting green.<\/p>\n<p>The Xiaomi 14 feels durable and scores an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/ip-ratings-explained\/\">IP68 rating<\/a> for water resistance. Gorilla Glass Victus protects the flat screen. The USB-C port and SIM card tray are on the bottom edge, and there\u2019s a power button with volume rocker above on the right spine. Overall, it\u2019s a classy, refined design, albeit quite conservative.<\/p>\n<p><native-ad position=\"in-content\" shoulddisplaylabel=\"true\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The 6.36-inch AMOLED display has a camera cutout at the top and a fingerprint sensor under the screen at the bottom. I found the fingerprint sensor very responsive. The screen is a highlight. It sports a 2,670 x 1,200-pixel resolution, giving you a sharp 460 pixels per inch (matching the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/review\/apple-iphone-15-pro-and-iphone-15-pro-max\/\">iPhone 15 Pro<\/a>). It has a dynamic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/high-refresh-rate-explained\/\">refresh rate<\/a> capable of going from 1 Hz up to 120 Hz for smooth animations and scrolling, and to save on battery life where possible.<\/p>\n<p>The display was bright enough for me to read outdoors in direct light and can reach 3,000 nits peak brightness for highlights. The Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support make this a solid phone for movie watching. The stereo speakers offer Dolby Atmos and boast surprising depth. I watched a few scenes from\u00a0<em>Dune<\/em>\u00a0and <em>Blade Runner 2049<\/em> to put it through its paces, and it looked and sounded good enough on the Xiaomi 14 that I was quickly sucked in.<\/p>\n<p>Solid Performer<\/p>\n<p>Slick performance comes courtesy of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, ably backed by 12 GB of RAM. You also get a generous 512 GB of storage, and it\u2019s the latest, speedy UFS 4.0. The Xiaomi 14 has enough power to multitask or play the most demanding games without stutters or dropped frames. After almost two hours of\u00a0<em>Grimvalor<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Defense Zone HD,<\/em>\u00a0it remained cool.<\/p>\n<p>Playing 20 minutes of\u00a0<em>Asphalt 9: Legends<\/em>\u00a0used 4 percent of the battery. Rated at 4,610 mAh, you can expect the Xiaomi 14 to get through all but the busiest days, but you\u2019ll want to charge every night. The 90-watt charger and USB-C cable in the box can fully charge the Xiaomi 14 in just over half an hour. This phone also supports up to 50-watt wireless charging, but you need <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/www.mi.com\/uk\/product\/xiaomi-50w-wireless-charging-stand\/specs\/?skupanel=1\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/cna.st\/affiliate-link\/D7sWyRTyBnUnTaHMR77KBhGEZ43eitLyDnnSdhpEcUKdgki15auhHzefFA6aVBmzDecLhFvovGC446RjXCNJj2NZYVAJ2pqNApvEf56Cd89HmaL7rckgCyLX12PWU8xi1aHAiCf1c6SZS7AFMyn2uHdWTgDSz6gLUEkcgvc5JpLo19uJLNTAUBGLyJvaS6bUP5xdHp&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/cna.st\/affiliate-link\/D7sWyRTyBnUnTaHMR77KBhGEZ43eitLyDnnSdhpEcUKdgki15auhHzefFA6aVBmzDecLhFvovGC446RjXCNJj2NZYVAJ2pqNApvEf56Cd89HmaL7rckgCyLX12PWU8xi1aHAiCf1c6SZS7AFMyn2uHdWTgDSz6gLUEkcgvc5JpLo19uJLNTAUBGLyJvaS6bUP5xdHp\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Xiaomi\u2019s wireless charger (\u00a360)<\/a> to get that rate.<\/p>\n<p><cm-unit\/><\/p>\n<p>Connectivity is top-notch.
