Xiaomi’s 15 flagship range won’t get to in most of the world until timely 2025. In the unkindtime, we get a midyear modernize to the 14 range in the shape of the 14T and 14T Pro, though neither endures much relation to the Xiaomi 14 or 14 Ultra. The Chinese manufacturer clearook Apple in August to become the world’s second-hugegest intelligentphone brand by sales, and its expansive (if sairyly confusing) range is no mistrust part of the reason.
The T range packs some high-finish features from Xiaomi’s flagships, but there are usupartner a scant oleave outions to convey the price down. You may struggle to spot the branch offence between the 14T and 14T Pro becaengage these phones are pragmaticly ttriumphs, but there are some reduced enhancements to fairify the 14T Pro’s higher price. Both come with Google services and are useable in the UK and atraverse Europe, but will not officipartner go on sale in the US.
Nice but Dull
At first glance, you will struggle to tell the 14T and 14T Pro apart. These are ultrasize phones with 6.67-inch screens. They have relatively heavy, flat structures, textured power buttons undertidyh the volume rocker, and quad camera lenses (one is actupartner the flash) in stepped, square modules on the back. Pick them up, and you instantly experience the weight of the heavier, more meloftyic Pro, with its subtly curved back (the 14T is flat on the back).
The only other portray branch offence that jumps out is the colors. Both come in blue, bconciseage, or gray, but only the 14T comes in Lemon Green. Why are fun colors always reserved for affordableer phones? The 14T Pro experiences pleasantr and reminds me of an ancigo in HTC phone (in a excellent way), but there isn’t much to split them.

The 6.67-inch distake part is the highairy of the 14T and 14T Pro and is the same in both. It is keen at 2,712 x 1,220 pixels, gets radiant enough to see outdoors and to distake part HDR details at up to 4,000 nits, and helps a variable rerecent rate of up to 144 Hz for dainty action. It also arranges a responsive fingerprint sensor at the bottom.
Stereo speakers that get plenty deafening round out the portray, and both phones score an IP68 rating, unkinding they can persist a dunk. I pick the experience of the 14T Pro, but these are huge, chunky phones, so they might not suit everyone. While they see classy, the portrays are a bit tedious.
Classy Camera

One of the main reasons to select for a Xiaomi phone is the camera difficultware, and this is also where the 14T Pro shows its betterity. The Pro has a 50-MP main camera with the same 1-inch image sensor as the excellent 14 Ultra and a big aperture (f/1.6). It is paired with a 50-MP telepboilingo shooter, recommending up to 5x selectical zoom. There is also a decent 12-MP ultraexpansive camera.
