Xiaomi 14, the upcoming flagship smartphone from the Chinese manufacturer is all set to debut in India next month. The handset has already been unveiled in China last year in October. The phone's rear design and a couple of specifications have also been teased by the company showcasing a Leica-tuned camera setup.

After launching the Xiaomi 14 last year in China; the company has announced to unveil the phone in India as well. Xiaomi itself has confirmed to introduce the Xiaomi 14 5G in India next month. It also has teased the rear design of the handset showcasing a triple rear camera setup along with an LED Flash on the back panel. The cameras will also be Leica-tuned to offer stunning photographs. The Xiaomi 14 series is also scheduled to launch globally at the Mobile World Congress (MWC).

Xiaomi announced to launch of the Xiaomi 14 in India on March 7, 2024, via X (previously known as Twitter). The phone will debut a couple of weeks after its global launch, and several months after its launch in China. According to the teaser shared by Xiaomi, the smartphone will come in a dark Green colourway with Leica-tuned cameras. The phone will sport a triple rear camera setup housed in a square camera module at the top left corner of its back panel. Accompanying the camera setup, there will also be an LED flash.

Last year Xiaomi's partnership with Leica on the Xiaomi 13 Ultra gained a lot of appreciation from photography enthusiasts and this year too we expect the same.

Apart from the camera specifications, the company is yet to reveal any details, however, it is likely to ship with similar specifications as its Chinese variant. Xiaomi 14, in China, comes equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC. It has a 6.36-inch LTPO display with 1.5K resolution and an adaptive 120Hz refresh rate.
