Compact smartphones have become a thing of the past, with smartphone screens getting bigger and larger by the day. The Xiaomi Mi 3, launched in 2013, came with a 5-inch display, and in those days, having such a screen size on a phone was a big deal. Fast-forward to 2024, and the Xiaomi 14 Ultra is launched with a humongous 6.73-inch screen, and even that may not be enough for some people out there.
Sandwiched between large smartphones and ultra-compact ones lies the recently launched Xiaomi 14. Featuring a 6.36-inch display, it is far from being called a ‘compact’ flagship. But its aluminum frame and silicone polymer back more than make up for it in its weight, counting at just 188 grams. Featuring a highly efficient OLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protection, the Xiaomi 14 ensures that its small size does not jeopardize the viewing experience. And powering the phone is a mighty Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 flagship chipset with up to 16GB of memory and 1TB of internal storage. However, the Indian version only comes with 12GB of memory and 512GB of storage.
In addition to that, the phone comes with a triple camera system, harnessing the prowess of Leica’s legendary optics, and a respectable 4610 mAH battery with fast-charging capabilities. So, if you have recently purchased the Xiaomi 14 but have met an unforeseen circumstance where you need to repair the device for a specific technical issue, then our thorough guide can help you know all about the same effortlessly.

How to Check And Claim Warranty
Each Xiaomi smartphone, including the Xiaomi 14, comes with a one-year warranty on labor and parts and a six-month warranty on the original battery, charging adapter, and other accessories included in the package.
The ideal way to check the warranty status of your Xiaomi 14 is by consulting your purchase receipt or invoice, because the date mentioned in the invoice will be the starting date of your device warranty and will be valid up to a year from that, unless you have an extended warranty.
Xiaomi India does not offer separate user guides or manuals for each of its smartphones. Instead, a single, compact, and generic guide is provided to ensure that you know more about your device and maybe even troubleshoot any trivial issues.
