Get it loaded up and frankly, AI is the last thing you’ll be thinking about.
Maybe next time, US readers.
The biggest improvement in terms of design comes to the phone’s camera bump.
Xiaomi’s new 14T Pro in Titan Grey features an improved design, with a glass back and color matched camera bump.
Gone are the days of a large, garish black block on the back of your gadget.
Instead, you get a lovely, Lego brick-esque square in a color that matches your back panel seamlessly.
When partnered with the Xiaomi 14T Pro’s hardware, this gives you a seriously impressive mobile experience.
Take, for example, close-up photographs.
Xiaomi’s partnership with Leica brings into focus several features that supposedly enhance your shooting capabilities.
The first of these you’ll likely encounter is the shooting styles: Leica Authentic, and Leica Vibrant.
All in all, superb photos, but not necessarily the most honest to the colors in the scene.
Something this color-frenzy does help with, however, is the 14T Pro’s night photography.
Take shooting video, for example.
The camera bump on the Xiaomi 14T Pro has seen serious improvements versus the 13T Pro.
You have a standard video mode, and film mode.
The 14T Pro, then, is a great all-round camera phone.
Nice work, Xiaomi.
Battery score: 4.5 / 5

Honor Magic 6 Pro
A pricier but more premium alternative.
My battery tests were completed using a standardized process for all TechRadar phone reviews.
Xiaomi’s HyperOS offers a superbly clean experience, including what it calls Super Wallpapers such as the Mars example above, which spins as you flick between pages.
Xiaomi’s Control Center was one of the biggest benefactors of HyperOS, gaining this new, clean layout with an array of customizable options.
In our tests, our best results came in close-quarters shooting scenarios, with impressive colours and crisp focus.
