The Xiaomi 14 establishes a design idea
Although the new Xiaomi 14 have different dimensions compared to the Xiaomi 13, they represent the standardization of a form factor with flat sides with curved corners and, above all, with flat screens.
They both ride AMOLED LTPO panels with a diagonal of 6.36 and 6.6 inches respectively, although with some difference in resolution, being 1.5K in the Xiaomi 14 and 2.5K in the Xiaomi 14 Pro. They do share the possibility of having a variable and much more efficient refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz, as well as a 3,000 nits brightness that breaks all the limits seen until now.

Hello, HyperOS (although without goodbye to Android)
Several weeks ago the bombshell of the arrival of a new “operating system” for Xiaomi phones called HyperOS. It will have versions not only for mobile phones, but also for other devices. As far as smartphones are concerned, and although it will also reach previous generations, it is these Xiaomi 14 and 14 Pro that are launching it.
This is what the control center looks like with HyperOS quick settings
We don’t end up just calling it an operating system, since aims to be an Android fork, with a visual identity reminiscent of MIUI, although with obvious new features. Of course, the company insists on saying that it is a new operating system that, as they explained weeks ago, they have been developing for many years.
For the moment, and without knowing it in depth, Its main changes lie in the Xiaomi ecosystem, even introducing artificial intelligence. The company also says that it guides it to make the most of the devices’ performance and with these Xiaomi 14s carrying a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, we hope so.
