In a recent turn of events, Xiaomi has confirmed that the much-anticipated Xiaomi 14 series will be unveiled on October 26, 2023, at 7 PM Beijing time, putting to rest earlier rumors of a reveal on October 27.
The revelation has come amidst a whirlpool of speculations fueled by leaked posters and listings on the Chinese microblogging site Weibo and benchmarking platform Geekbench. A poster leak revealed the full specifications of the standard Xiaomi 14 model, teasing the tech community with what’s to come.
The Xiaomi 14 series is expected to showcase the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, marking a significant upgrade from its predecessors. This launch also marks Xiaomi’s maiden venture into integrating Leica Summilux lenses into their smartphones, setting a new benchmark in mobile photography.
One of the notable leaks suggests that the Xiaomi 14 will feature a 6.44-inch Huaxing C8 OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. This screen is believed to support Dolby Vision and HDR10+, promising an enhanced viewing experience. Another leak hinted at a 50MP LEICA camera, although the full details of the camera specifications remain under wraps.
On the performance front, both the Xiaomi 14 and 14 Pro are touted to come with the Qualcomm Snapdragon Gen 3 and a hefty 16GB of RAM. Benchmark scores on Geekbench reveal a 20 percent performance boost for the Xiaomi 14 compared to the Xiaomi 13. The Pro variant is reported to house a robust 5,000 mAh battery, supporting 120W wired and 50W wireless charging. Both models are expected to flaunt 6.7-inch AMOLED displays with a 144Hz refresh rate, offering buttery smooth visuals.
The upcoming flagships will accompany the launch of Xiaomi’s new Watch S3 smartwatch and the newly announced HyperOS, which is set to replace the old MIUI, making it a significant event for the tech giant and its fanbase.
The pricing details remain elusive as of now, but considering these will be Xiaomi’s first phones to run on HyperOS and to be powered by the yet-to-be-announced Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Gen 3 chipset, a slight bump in the price from the previous models is anticipated.
With just days left for the official reveal, the leaks have certainly managed to create a buzz in the tech community, setting high expectations for the Xiaomi 14 series launch.
