Redmi Note 14 5G Overview

Design and Display

The core design of both phones remains the same, however, the Redmi has given the Note 14 5G enough tweaks to be visually distinguishable. The camera cutout has grown larger, while the back panel has gone back to being curved. Similarly, the camera island has gone a bit softer with the edge and the LED flash has shifted a coupled millimetres up. The phone offers an added level of durability with an IP64 rating, reinforced internal design, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

On the front, it has a 6.67-inch OLED screen with FHD+ resolution. It offers a refresh rate of up to 120Hz and a peak brightness of 2,100 nits. You also get a standard and instantaneous touch sampling rate of 240Hz and 2,160Hz respectively. The display is capable of HDR10+ and covers the DCI-P3 color gamut. Moreover, it has received TÜV and SGS certifications for eye care features like low blue light.

Performance

The MediaTek Dimensity 7025 Ultra serves as the brain of the Redmi Note 14 5G. With 6nm fabrication and a higher 2.5GHz clock speed, this chipset offers a decent upgrade over the Dimensity 6080 on its predecessor. Furthermore, the chip is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and 512GB of UFS 2.2 storage. However only the 8/128GB and 8/256GB are likely to launch in Nepal For battery, it has a sizable 5,110 mAh cell with 45W charging support.

Camera and the rest

The primary shooter on the Redmi Note 14 5G is a 108MP OIS-enabled lens coupled with a Sony LYT-600 sensor. Additionally, there is an 8MP ultrawide unit and a 2MP macro sensor. The latter barely adds to the photography experience though. Meanwhile, a 20MP camera sits on the front for selfies and 2D face scanning.

Connectivity-wise, you get dual-SIM support with 5G cellular, dual-band WiFi 5, and Bluetooth v5.3 for wireless medium. On the other hand, a USB Type-C port and a 3.5mm headphone jack handle the wired connections. For additional security, there is an in-display fingerprint sensor. The company also mentions “Heart rate detection” as a feature on this phone, but refuses to elaborate any further.
