The Xiaomi 14 Pro review is here, and you must know these "god-level" features

Although from the perspective of positioning, Xiaomi 14 Pro belongs to the middle cup of the Xiaomi 14 series, but some users may know: for the previous generation of Xiaomi digital models, Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro are both leapfrogging upgrades, that is, in terms of hardware configuration and operation experience, the two mobile phones are benchmarked against Apple's iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max respectively.

Just like the Xiaomi Mi 14 Pro, in my opinion, it is different from the Xiaomi Mi 14's small vertical screen, and it is different from the Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra's main image strength. According to my personal opinion, in fact, the Xiaomi 14 Pro has stepped out of its own style, and even compared to the Xiaomi 13 Pro, this phone looks different in every aspect.

So it's also driven by interest and curiosity in the Xiaomi 14 Pro, I got this phone and felt it for a few days, so let's talk about the evaluation experience for users who are ready to start from a subjective point of view. Objectively speaking, some of the functional configurations that can be called "god-level", I think it is worth further understanding whether you start or not.

Imaging system

It can be said that most users plan to buy Xiaomi 14 Pro, there is no way to avoid the image configuration of this phone, its rear camera is a 50 million pixel main camera, light and shadow hunter 900 sensor, combined with 50 million pixels Leica 75mm floating telephoto, 50 million pixels ultra wide angle. The Xiaomi Mi 14 Pro lets in 52% more light than the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Assuming that purely from the perspective of the size of the rear main camera sensor of the Xiaomi 14 Pro, it does not have much advantage over other brands of imaging flagships, only 1/1.31 inch, which is even smaller than the IMX989 that some users are familiar with. However, the main camera of this phone has a single pixel of 1.2 μm, and the four-in-one achieves a large pixel output of 2.4 μm.

It's important to know that the Xiaomi Mi 14 Pro uses a dual-native ISO Fusion Max for the main camera, which is very powerful. That said, the main camera supports f/1.42 - f/4.0 1024-stop variable aperture, while if two exposure EV negatives are recorded when shooting in a single frame, it provides a single frame dynamic range of up to 13.5 EV through fusion.

If you evaluate the Xiaomi Mi 14 Pro's images from my point of view, I personally think that its tuning is closer to the real-life use scenario, but the photos taken may show a professional and high-end style. So it caters well to the actual requirements of users. After all, the democratization of the professional imaging experience is a trend, and the Xiaomi Mi 14 Pro's value includes that.

Surging OS is interconnected

The software system of the Xiaomi 14 Pro is naturally expected at the experience level, because it is adapted to the Xiaomi surging OS system from the factory, so I was very concerned about the "interconnection" function embedded in the system at that time. In terms of actual experience, the cross-device clipboard solves the problem that pictures and text can only be sent through chat software.

In addition, the Xiaomi surging OS system belongs to the whole ecological operating system of people, cars and homes, so if you consider Xiaomi car SU7, then the interoperability experience will be further improved. However, the interconnection between the Xiaomi 14 Pro and the Xiaomi laptop and tablet is actually quite similar to that between iOS devices, which is a crucial feature for most ordinary users.

Leak-proof listening independent earpiece

In fact, voice call is the basic function of a mobile phone, but Xiaomi 14 Pro is different, it calls the equipped independent earpiece when calling, and only sounds from the narrow slit on the front, which belongs to secret language transmission, so it is really careful to protect privacy. This, in my opinion, is a detail that many models do not notice. Since we talk about privacy and security, Xiaomi 14 Pro has a built-in independent security chip, which means that the privacy information that users care about has been protected at the hardware level. Frankly speaking, everyone is going to buy a flagship machine, so they naturally pay more attention to these points.

In addition, like Xiaomi 14 ProWiFiHigh-speed energy saving is also a "god-level" function that cannot be ignored, with the blessing of chip LPPT technology, it can achieve the purpose of low power consumption, and at the same time, the peak of high speed has reached 3.6Gbps. There are many similar features that fit the actual needs, and I will not list them all here for the sake of space.

On the whole, Xiaomi 14 Pro's appearance is good, and the performance output experience is good, including games, images, etc., which are related to the user's actual use of the machine, and I personally think it is really balanced, and the price is not high in the flagship.
