Display and Design
At 6.67 inches, the Xiaomi 14T Pro AMOLED display is at least a bit bigger, and supports up to 144Hz refresh rate, which means it should be nicely smooth for gaming and consuming media. It’s also brighter with higher peak brightness, so reading in the sunshine is a little more manageable. On the other hand, Xiaomi 14 comes as a compact one, with screen size of 6.36 inches plus a lesser refresh rate of 120Hz which is still very good in terms of performance but a bit less smooth.
Despite the Xiaomi 14 being lighter and more compact, it’s those who want more screen size who’ll find the 14T Pro’s more immersing display size just the ticket.
Performance and Battery Life
Xiaomi 14 is at top when it comes to performance as it has powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which is a high end processor, designed to provide speedier performance and the best energy efficiency. Xiaomi 14T Pro has the same MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ which performs well enough for most tasks but is slightly behind in the high end performance benchmarks.
As for battery life, the Xiaomi 14T Pro comes with a larger 5000mAh battery with support for 120W HyperCharge for lightning fast charging. For instance, the Xiaomi 14 does have a slightly smaller 4610 mAh battery which along with its Snapdragon processor makes it more efficient than last almost a day in a single charge.
Camera System
The Xiaomi 14 packs a Leica 75mm telephoto lens and an ultra wide camera, plus both phones have a 50MP rear camera, so if you’re looking to shoot, this is a better phone. While the Xiaomi 14T Pro still manages to provide truly stunning images thanks to its Leica laced cameras, it doesn’t have the zoom capabilities found on the Xiaomi 14 in its telephoto lens.
Price and Value
With a price significantly lower than the priced above, usually around €799.99, there’s currently even stock in a bundle with a Xiaomi TV, which all in all is a truly phenomenal offer. Whereas, the Xiaomi 14 costs €1,099.99 and is fully justified by high end materials, premium features and processing power. You can buy it for less however, if you are lucky.
Which Should You Buy?
If you’re looking for a larger display, fast charging, and a good overall phone experience for lower price, choose the Xiaomi 14t Pro. It is a great deal for tight budget because it also includes bundled free TV that lowers the cost.
If you want performance, camera quality, and premium build, then pick up the Xiaomi 14. For users seeking the best that Xiaomi has to offer, and photography and processing power are a top priority, this is the ultimate (and flawless) solution.
Both phones are great, but you’ll need to choose between the cutting edge performance and camera versatility (Xiaomi 14) or a cheaper alternative with a bigger screen and great battery life (Xiaomi 14T Pro).
