Redmi A4, Redmi Note 14 series India launch
The report confirms that Xiaomi will launch the Redmi A4 in the Indian market in November. the phone will be the first to be powered by Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 4s Gen 2 processor. Xiaomi has already showcased the design of the device at the India Mobile Congress (IMC) in October.

Riding on the momentum of the festive season, Xiaomi plans to launch the Redmi Note 14 series in December 2024. This will be the first time since the epidemic that Xiaomi has launched two Note series devices in the same year.

Xiaomi used to release two generations of Note series every six months. That schedule changed due to COVID-19, but things seem to be getting back to normal. For example, the Redmi Note 13 series was launched in India in June. We will get its successor in December.

Xiaomi’s Chief Marketing Officer for India, Anuj Sharma, explained the rationale behind the accelerated release cycle:

“After 2022, we slowed down to an annual cycle… now, with improved efficiency and manufacturing alignment, we’re ready to return to a dual-launch approach.”

The Redmi Note 14 series features a revamped camera design and upgraded chipsets, including a rumored 200MP sensor in some models. It also offers larger batteries and faster charging capabilities.

While Xiaomi hasn’t confirmed pricing details for the Indian market, the series is expected to target various mid-range segments, ranging from under Rs 20,000 to potentially exceeding Rs 30,000.

What's even more intriguing is the rumour that the Redmi Note 14 Pro 4G version will be launched globally, but not yet in China. The phone has appeared on several certification sites, hinting at a possible launch in the near future.
