Jun 27, 2023 @ 11:34am

The Xiaomi 13 will be replaced by the Xiaomi 14 in 2024. Below you can find out what is known about the upcoming top smartphone from Xiaomi.

The Xiaomi 13 may only have been on the market for a few months, but Xiaomi is definitely already working hard on a successor. This will probably be called Xiaomi 14, but what can you expect from the upcoming top smartphone? We summarize all the rumors about the successor to the Xiaomi 13 for you.

When will the Xiaomi 14 (Pro) be released?

The Xiaomi 13 was launched on March 8, 2023 – at least for us. It was presented in China on December 11, 2022 and could already be bought a little later. We assume that this will also be the case with the Xiaomi 14 this year. At the end of 2023 we will probably receive extensive official information from China and it could then appear here in the first quarter of 2024.

The fact that the Xiaomi 14 will be released in China at the end of 2023 also seems to be supported by the IMEI database entry, if statements about the release period can actually be derived from the model numbers found.

Will there be a pro version?

As with the predecessors, there will definitely be at least two versions between which you have to choose for release. The Pro version should again be the more powerful version. The Xiaomi 13 also includes a Lite version and soon an Ultra model.

How much will the Xiaomi 14 (Pro) cost?

With the recommended retail price of 1,299 dollars, Xiaomi had made the Xiaomi 13 Pro much more expensive than its predecessor. The basic model was also affected by the price increase at 999 dollars. Another noticeable increase in the Xiaomi 14 cannot be ruled out.

You can expect these innovations with the Xiaomi 14

There are already some rumors about the look and the technology used. Xiaomi itself also seems very confident that the experience will be downright “royal”. The leaked Chinese mythology codenames are Houji and Shennong. These are two rulers who also have a lot to do with agriculture.

design and processing

Xiaomi could again rely on the proven design of a previous predecessor for the new flagship series. The The design of the Xiaomi 14 Pro has already been completed and it should be better than the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra. At least that’s what an employee from the Xiaomi Industrial Design Department says.

As a reminder, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra was Xiaomi’s high-end device of 2021, which boasted a second screen on the back.

So it could be that the Xiaomi 14 also has a second screen, which will hopefully be something more than a gimmick. With the Mi 11 Ultra, you first had to activate the screen on the back so that it could serve as a viewfinder for the camera.

However, the design could also be different. With an accuracy of 90 percent, the leaker SPinfoJP was already able to display the Xiaomi 13 Ultra with a render image before the official presentation. So he might be right about the Xiaomi 14 as well. Its portrayal of the Xiaomi 14 Pro has a lot in common with the Xiaomi 13 Pro.

Display

At least the Pro model should have two different variants that differ in terms of their display design. One of the variants has a more curved display than the other.

processor

It shouldn’t come as a surprise to any Xiaomi fan that we’re expecting the latest Snapdragon processor again in the new Xiaomi 14 flagship. And it could really have it all, as @RGcloudS writes on Twitter. However, there are no official details about the new Qualcomm chip yet.

Camera: Ultra Feature also for the basic model

The Xiaomi 13 Ultra impresses with a total of four cameras – one of which is a 50-megapixel periscope camera. Loud Gizmochina there are rumors that this very sensor with a field of view of 122 degrees could end up in the Pro model. This would give the Pro version an immense update.

Not only the Xiaomi 14 Pro could benefit from the camera technology. With a 3.9x zoom and a focal length of 90 millimeters, the zoom camera of the basic version is not as good as the Pro model, but it is said to be a periscope camera.

The entire Xiaomi 14 series should also benefit first from high-end camera lenses. To do this Xiaomi mit AAC Technologies have merged. Both companies want to produce WLG high lens lenses. through the Combination of plastic and glass the lenses can have a longer focal length and thus let more light to the sensor. This should especially benefit shots with little light.

An innovation for the Ultra model, which may appear later than the Xiaomi 14, could not be forthcoming. It is probably not possible to install a sensor larger than one inch in the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. That is why the main sensor in the next generation would remain the same size as its predecessor. We’ll see which camera surprises the Ultra model will shine with apart from the main camera.
