The Redmi Note 14 series made its debut in China last month, showcasing an all-5G lineup. However, it appears that Redmi is expanding the series with a 4G variant of the Redmi Note 14 Pro. After a recent appearance on the IMEI database, the device has now been spotted on the FCC certification website, revealing key specifications and hinting at an imminent launch.
Redmi Note 14 Pro 4G FCC Listing
Identified by model number 24116RACCG, the FCC listing discloses the following details:
- Display: A 6.67-inch FHD+ pOLED display with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, similar to the Redmi Note 13 Pro 4G.
- RAM/Storage: Multiple configurations are expected, including 8GB/128GB, 8GB/256GB, 12GB/256GB, and 12GB/512GB options.
- Battery: A 5,500mAh battery, a significant upgrade from the 5,000mAh battery in its predecessor. Charging speed remains undisclosed.
- Connectivity: Dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and 4G LTE connectivity.
The listing also includes an image showcasing the internal antenna schematics of the phone.
Previous Sightings and Expected Features
This FCC appearance follows the Redmi Note 14 Pro 4G’s previous listing on the IMEI database with the same model number. While details are still limited, these sightings suggest an upcoming launch. Reports indicate the device, codenamed ‘Obsidian,’ will be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity chipset, potentially different from the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultra found in the Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G. For comparison, the Redmi Note 13 4G utilizes the MediaTek Helio G99 Ultra chipset.
Launch Timeline and Availability
Although the official launch date remains unknown, the Redmi Note 14 Pro 4G is anticipated to be unveiled soon, possibly targeting global markets.
The emergence of the Redmi Note 14 Pro 4G suggests that Redmi aims to cater to a wider audience with varying connectivity needs and budget preferences. While the 5G models offer faster speeds, the 4G variant likely aims to provide a more affordable option with robust features. With a larger battery, ample storage options, and a familiar display size, the Redmi Note 14 Pro 4G could be a compelling choice for users seeking a well-rounded smartphone experience without the 5G premium.
