Xiaomi 14 Review | Galaxy S24 Killer?

Xiaomi 14 is an (almost) compact flagship phone that is launched to compete against Galaxy S24 and S24 Plus. In this review, I did a through analysis of the phone, the battery, performance, AnTuTu test, and CPU throttling, and also compared the camera to the Samsung Galaxy S24 Exynos. Xiaomi 14 has a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 similar to the S24 US version.

I bought my unit from Amazon. If you decide to buy the phone, please consider using this link to help the channel:

In China it costs 500 Euros (if you convert). As soon as it gets out of China, price gets doubled.
This is why Chinese phones outside of China doesn't make sense.

The overall performance of the Xiaomi 14 is better than the S24, but why do people ignore Xiaomi and praise the S24? Plz answer for me

I am so glad you picked up Xiaomi 14 for review. I was thoroughly impressed by your review of Samsung s24 and its comparison with s23 and s24 SD. Currently, I am confused between s23, s23 plus and Xiaomi 14.
I love the compact form factor of s23 but I have apprehensions regarding how its 4k mAh battery will age two years down the line.
I love the s23 plus except for its size and bulkiness.
The Xiaomi 14 seems to offer the best of both worlds.
Kindly do more detailed comparisons of camera. Also, I would be thankful if you helped me make my purchase decision.

A battery test vs s23 and s24 exynos would be nice :)

[renashbell]

A feature that Samsung may not get

90w charging
And charger in a box with casing+screen protector

Seriously the only utuber who does real tests.

I'm looking forward to the battery test, especially how it behaves navigating on 4G/5G.

Xiaomi 14 is probably the killer of Xiaomi Brand as phone producer. Today I took this phone from the operator. I was deciding between Samsung S24 and Xiaomi 14. After a long consideration, I decided on Xiaomi because of the display, fast charging, 512 GB storage and other parameters where Xiaomi had the upper hand on paper. During the reviews, I came across a problem where people complained about the fogging of the camera lens when shooting a video, especially when transitioning from warm to winter. I thought it was a problem of some defective pieces. How big was my surprise when after 2 minutes of shooting my first video, the lens was completely fogged up and the video looked like fog in an English horror movie. The temperature was 10 degrees. and I was outside for about 20 minutes, so there can be no question of a sudden change in temperature. It is completely pointless to argue about the phone's equipment when it fails miserably in video recording, where it is completely unusable. I don't know if Xiaomi has already officially commented on this, but it's a piece of cake. In my opinion, it is a big excuse to withdraw the entire batch of Xiaomi 14 from the market. Incredibly disappointing and very bad advertising. I'm returning the phone tomorrow.

Thanks for the comparison! Any issues with foggy lenses? (condensation inside camera module, eg after leavinf warm room and taking out your phone in colder, more humid environment?)?

I think Google Pixel 8 under 700 euros. And at the same time the 9 will be a much better deal when it will have a telephoto camera and the same 7 years of software updates and probably a price of 800. I remember in 2019 I bought a Xiaomi mi 9 for 380 euros even though it was their best phone at the time.

[SerAlbi]

I'm curious how did you get the S24 SD in europe? Is there a website that sells imported US phones?

[dnbcatalina]

Your reviews are excellent. But its sad to know that xioami 14 has much less brighter display. Why its marketing like 3000 nits? Thats really not a good marketing practice. Waiting for your battery comparision video.
Your videos are gem. Keep it up bro👍👍

[yazanzobi]

Xiaomi 13 was unable to defeat the S23. We notice that Xiaomi is ahead of Samsung with its camera

[monachusTV]

Maybe its a bit pricey but it comes with 12Gb of ram and 512GB of storage as standard.

[lucvandriel]

i ordered the xiaomi 14 on a data plan. It was €780, - that way. thats much more acceptable than teh 1000 euros when buying it directly.

The EU cost is much higher (even compared to CN, SEA after converting the cost there to EU) mainly due to shipping. The reason for overall increase in prices across the globe is the BOM.

[sinanmamed]

▪︎▪︎ It is a very good device, but it cannot replace the S24.

[Garrettdx]

Your performance comparison was much appreciated
