Xiaomi 14T Pro Review | Cheaper Flagship Alternative?

Reviewing the Xiaomi 14T Pro, a cheaper flagship phone alternative to the Samsung Galaxy S24, Pixel 9 series etc. I've been using the Xiaomi 14T Pro as my full time smartphone, testing the camera abilities, gaming prowess, battery life etc. So here's my full verdict and check out my 14T unboxing to see how it compares vs the Pro!

The Xiaomi 14T Pro serves up the same main camera sensor as the dinky flagship from six months ago, serving up excellent natural looking photos. You can boost the picture brightness and vibrancy if wanted and shoot up to 8K resolution video - while the Xiaomi 14T Pro also offers a slew of movie modes.

Battery life has been good these past few days, unless you get gaming on Wuthering Waves etc for any length of time. Playing games does make this phone heat up quite quickly, due to the Dimensity 9300 Plus chipset which powers it. Still, the Xiaomi 14T Pro maintained a mostly smooth frame rate even over time.

You've also got a gorgeous, super-bright screen and stereo speaker setup. Plus a comfortable, functional design in three Titan-esque colours.

You know, I've been watching tech spurt for years... and I always thought it was just a funny name. I only just realized it's a play on tech "expert". Wow

[smitjee]

I used to love Xiaomi phones because of their smooth animation, value for money, and good updates; but now I hate it because you can no longer use a third party launcher properly, keyboard haptic feedback on third party keyboards are cheap (except gboard), too many bloat wares even when playing videos in gallery, and ads on native apps such as the video app, etc. So sad!

Hi, thanks for that lighting fast update..!
Could you do a comparison video with the Xiaomi 14.
Does this perform better than the Xiaomi 14...

Several years of update’ has got to be the vaguest tech review ever, man!

[TheVeganVicar]

I just bought my first Xiaomi product (the Pad Pro 5G) and I am reasonably happy with it so far, especially with the keyboard case, that I ordered a couple of weeks after getting the tablet.

[nitrobear]

Just saw the price in Europe, it costs as much as a Galaxy S24

Since when was something £649 and above "cheap"?

[TravelingYordle]

The photos you've taken are seriously really good!!

[xyzsweep]

Could you help me choose between the 14T pro, Xiaomi 14, Iqoo 12 or the one plus 12? Or should I wait for the Xiaomi 15, Iqoo 13, Oneplus 13 releases?

[Mancastle]

Love that they have the same deal I got when i purchased a 12T pro.
Basically, £495 for a 14T and a Redmi Pad Pro
Sell the Redmi Pad pro for £150-200 on ebay.
boom, phone for £300-350.

Hey Murr, when's Joe coming back to Impractical Jokers?

[skymask]

Thanks to your review, I actually ended up buying a Xiaomi 14 (the regular one, 14gb, 512gb of storage) but, merely after about a couple of hours, I've ended up return said bugger because they do cack when coming to 3rd party launchers' support - bummer

[ZotmundSzele]

Is this telepathy or AI listening? I've been watching a few Amy Winehouse videos today. 😮

6:40 do you have to play the stupidly expensive iphone launch video in this video? LOL
