Xiaomi 14 Pro review: specs, battery & used prices

Summary

The Xiaomi 14 Pro is Xiaomi's 2023 technology flagship: a 6.73-inch OLED at 3,000 nits, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, a triple 50 MP camera with Leica tuning, and 120 W wired charging that remains among the fastest we measure. It sold new for about $1,100, and used units now trade between roughly $404 and $558 depending on storage — a large discount for hardware that still leads on several axes.

Display and design

The 6.73-inch panel combines 3,000-nit peak brightness with a 120 Hz refresh rate and slim symmetrical bezels, earning a screen-quality score of 91/100 — level with the best phones we track. At 223 g with a compactness score of 67/100 it is a substantial device, protected against water and dust at IP68.

Performance

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 keeps the phone comfortably in the upper performance tier: our gaming score of 54/100 reflects solid sustained 3D performance rather than absolute front-row pace by 2026 standards. Everyday use remains fast. Software support is the weak side — four years of updates from 2023 leaves roughly one year remaining, the shortest runway in this price bracket.

Camera

The Leica-tuned triple 50 MP system — main with optical stabilisation, ultrawide, and floating telephoto — covers the full zoom range without compromise, and video reaches 8K at 30 fps. In daylight the main sensor still competes with 2025 flagships; the camera score of 60/100 sits at the top of the catalog.

Battery and charging

The 4,880 mAh cell delivers a 38/100 battery-life score — a full day for typical use. Charging is the party trick: 120 W wired fills the phone in well under half an hour, and our charging score of 100/100 is the maximum we award.

Verdict

The Xiaomi 14 Pro is the enthusiast's bargain: flagship display, top-tier camera hardware, and the fastest charging in the catalog, now at mid-range used prices of roughly $404–558. Our resale score of 94/100 means prices have been stable — the depreciation already happened. The one serious caveat is software: with support ending soon, buy it as a hardware owner, not a long-term platform. The newer Xiaomi 15 Pro extends battery and brightness if you need more runway.
