Xiaomi‘s Redmi brand is adding another budget option to its portfolio, the Redmi 14C. The device is confirmed to launch in Vietnam on August 31st. Ahead of the launch though, specs for the phone have been revealed via a Vietnamese retailer.
Redmi often brings a fresh design with each new series, and the Redmi 14C is no exception. The phone has a large circular camera module on the back, completely different from its predecessor’s design. Instead, the 14C looks more reminiscent of the recently launched Oppo F27 5G in India.
The Blue variant of the 14C even has an attractive gradient finish, giving it a more premium look. However, don’t be misled—this is still very much a budget device.
The camera module includes four rings; one houses a 50-megapixel main sensor, another likely holds a secondary sensor for depth information, and a third contains the LED flash. The fourth ring is purely decorative.
Aside from the Blue option, the Redmi 14C will be available in Green with a vegan leather finish and the plain Black shade.
The front features a large 6.88-inch LCD display with HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. It also packs a substantial 5,160mAh battery, though fast charging is limited to 18W. For biometrics, the phone has a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.
The retailer listing has no mention of phone’s processor, but rumors suggest it could be the MediaTek Helio G91 Ultra. Storage options are confirmed — it will come with either 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage or 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
Unsurprisingly, the pricing details are also under wraps, but it’s reasonable to expect the Redmi 14C to be a budget-friendly option. We’ll have to wait until the official launch on August 31st to confirm the price.
