The facility construction inside Xiaomi’s flagship line has shifted – in a ballot final 12 months the Xiaomi 13 Professional was the extra fashionable mannequin when in comparison with its vanilla sibling. Quick ahead to final week’s ballot and also you’ll discover that extra persons are trying on the vanilla Xiaomi 14 than the Professional.
In each instances, opinions will likely be a significant deciding issue – persons are particularly curious concerning the new HyperOS that arrives to switch the stalwart MIUI, which has been round since earlier than Xiaomi began making telephones. This is a crucial change since MIUI has loads of critics and HyperOS is an opportunity to win them over.
Pricing is one other huge concern – we will solely guess how a lot these 14-series will value exterior of China. Actually, this can be a key issue that pushed the smaller Xiaomi 14 above its larger brother. As we famous in final week’s submit, the 2 telephones have almost an identical options, when you account for the dimensions. Why pay additional for the Xiaomi 14 Professional?
To get the larger display screen, in fact, however some discovered it too huge – and a few aren’t followers of its curved form. Possibly making the 2 fashions fairly so comparable was a mistake.
