Xiaomi’s sub-brand Redmi is nowhere near the launch of the alleged Note 14, but thanks to diligent tipsters, rumors about it – about the possible Redmi Note 14 Pro, to be precise – are now floating around.
Thanks to the master of everything from the Far East (in mobile tech terms) Digital Chat Station, we now have this image that could very well be the rear design of the alleged Redmi Note 14 Pro (on the right). On the left, there is another phone that could very well be a Realme upcoming handset:

The Redmi Note 13 Pro is totally different:

A possible hit in the making
The Redmi Note 14 series are expected to be selling really well, squircle or not.
For reference, since the fall of 2021, when the Redmi Note journey was announced by Xiaomi, 240 million Redmi Note smartphones had been sold globally, the company claimed. And that was just until the end of 2023. Since then, sales figures have likely surged even higher.
In January 2024, Xiaomi shared new sales figures, revealing that over 3.2 million units of the Redmi Note 13 series have been sold in China since its launch. The Note 13 lineup has made its way onto other markets, and from my anecdotal point of view, it’s been selling really well in Eastern Europe.
The Redmi Note 13 series was a hit – Xiaomi said it managed to sell an impressive 400,000 units within just one hour of its release in September 2023.
