Qualcomm is launching the next generation of its flagship chipset in October at the Snapdragon Summit 2023. Following the event, Xiaomi will announce the new MIUI 15 based on Android 14, and will also shed some light on the Xiaomi 14 series. It will be like a soft announcement of Xiaomi’s next flagship. However, the actual Xiaomi 14 launch will take place in November, and the device will come pre-installed with stable MIUI 15.
The report seems to be corresponding to the launch timeline of both companies. Considering Apple’s new iPhone launch in September, October looks more suitable for the new chipset announcement. It will be followed by Xiaomi 14’s launch in November. Then, there will be multiple smartphone launches from Vivo, Oppo, ZTE, and other brands.
Last time, Vivo’s X90 Pro+ was the debut smartphone to launch first using the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. It was later followed by iQOO 11 and 11 Pro, and then Xiaomi 13 Series. We hope Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 to debut first with Xiaomi 14 series.
The chipset will equip an octa-core design including a Cortex-X4 core, 5x Cortex-A720 cores, and two Cortex-A520 cores.

Xiaomi 14 Series Specifications and Features (Expected)
The Xiaomi 13’s successor seems to bundle several upgrades and enhancements in both the software and hardware segment. The smartphone appears to bundle a new 50MP 1/1.28-inch primary sensor which is a bit larger than the last year’s sensor. It will bundle along a telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom capability and an ultrawide angle lens. Further, the base model is expected to feature a 4860 mAh battery with support for 90W fast wired charging and 50W wireless charging.
There will be a design change, and even the camera module will have a different arrangement, in comparison with the last year’s model.
