The Xiaomi 14—the company’s newest flagship series—is about to launch to the public worldwide. The series is scheduled to debut in India on February 25 and will emphasize camera quality through a partnership with renowned camera lens manufacturer Leica.
Finally, Xiaomi has announced that the new flagship Xiaomi 14 series will be available in India. In a recent post on X, the Chinese smartphone manufacturer disclosed that the launch date of its upcoming flagship series is February 25, 2024. In addition, a picture of a lens was teased in the post, suggesting that the smartphones’ cameras would receive a lot of attention. The Xiaomi 14 series, which includes the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro models, was already introduced in China last year.
Xiaomi India also stated in an earlier post that the company’s new smartphones would “reimagine smartphone photography” because of its partnership with Leica, a well-known manufacturer of high-performance camera lenses. Xiaomi has kept everything under wraps aside from the collaboration and some indications of very strong cameras. But, based on the China versions, we already know what the series has to offer, and the India versions will likely offer similar things.
The Xiaomi 14 series was introduced in China in November 2023. The Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro were priced at CNY 3999 (roughly Rs 45,800) and CNY 4999 (roughly Rs 56,800), respectively. A Titanium Metal Special Edition of the Xiaomi 14 Pro is also available for CNY 6499, or roughly Rs 73,900.
Since its release, the Xiaomi 14 series has been among the best smartphones, according to Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun. In addition, he provided BCI data showing that Xiaomi rose to the top of the market in November 2023 with over 5.2 million activations and a significant increase in the “high-end segment”.
