Islamabad, Aug 31: Following several rumors, the Redmi 14C has finally surfaced and, true to its word, provides solid specs in a reasonably priced package. It has a striking blue color option dubbed Starry Blue, which has a multicolored back panel with various shades.
Create and Present
Given that it’s a low-cost phone, the screen has a U-shaped notch for the front camera and a hefty bottom bezel. This 6.88-inch tall IPS LCD panel has a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a resolution of 720p. It can reach up to 600 nits of maximum brightness. The side power button is home to the fingerprint sensor.
The Redmi 14C’s internal processor is the recently revealed Helio G81 Ultra SoC. It has several memory options and the same CPU arrangement as the G80 Ultra. In addition to 128 GB and 256 GB of storage with the ability to expand with a microSD card, there are options for 4, 6, and 8 GB of RAM. You get Android 14 out of the box in terms of software.
Cameras
There are only two camera lenses on the phone a 50MP primary camera and an unidentified auxiliary lens despite the fact that there are four camera cutouts on the back. An LED flash and a sticker are included in the third and fourth cutouts. I think 1080p videos can be recorded with the main camera.There is a 13MP selfie camera within the notch.
Pricing and Battery
Reverse wired charging is not mentioned, although the 5,160 mAh battery enables 18W wired charging. The Redmi 14C is available in Midnight Black, Dreamy Purple, Sage Green, and Starry Blue color variants, with a starting price of $130 in Czechia.
