Xiaomi has just updated its lineup with a new smartphone. The latest addition is the Redmi 14C, a device that seems poised for success and could become a top seller this Black Friday or a popular Christmas gift worldwide. It replaces the Redmi 13C, which was one of the most affordable and appealing options from the Chinese company.
Interestingly, the announcement was made on the global official website, not in China. This means that if the Redmi 14C interests you, it will soon be available for purchase in Spain. However, Xiaomi has not yet disclosed the price.
Looking at the previous model for reference, the Redmi 13C was launched at around 150 euros, offering a good quality-price ratio. This new model is expected to be even better in terms of features, making its price a key factor to watch.
This Could Be Your Next Xiaomi Phone
Looking at its features, the Redmi 14C is set to be a big hit. Xiaomi has not only updated the design from the Redmi 13C but also made internal improvements to boost performance and user experience. If you’re in the market for an affordable phone and like the look of the Redmi 14C, it could be a great choice for you.
Xiaomi continues to use flat bezels but has made a significant change to the rear camera design. Instead of the usual rectangular modules in the corner, the new model features a large round trim. Despite the four prominent holes, the phone actually has only two camera sensors.
The front of the phone shows fewer changes. The notch for the front camera remains the same, and the black bezels haven’t been significantly reduced. However, the screen has been upgraded to 120 Hz and now measures 6.88 inches diagonally, which is a notable improvement.
In terms of photography, there isn’t much new to mention. Xiaomi has used the same sensors from the previous generation in the Redmi 14C. While the camera isn’t a standout feature, the device still offers decent quality considering its price.
On the battery front, Xiaomi has slightly increased the capacity of the Redmi 14C, from 5,000 to 5,160 mAh. Although fast charging isn’t a major feature, it supports 18W charging, which is adequate for its price range. As usual, the phone does not come with a charger in the box.
