If you can’t buy peace of mind, buy the Redmi Note 14 Series

You might have 99 problems but weak and fragile phones shouldn’t be one of them. Unfortunately, they often are. We humans are a clumsy species whether we like it or not. We’ve all felt the pain of a phone slipping from our hands and seeing it tumble over the hard floors. Clack, clack, and crack it goes while your heart breaks, breaks, and breaks.

In fact, take a look at your phone right now and I’m pretty sure you’ll spot battle scars in the form of a scratched-up screen or dented edges. We know – it’s a painful sight to see.

As chronic klutzes ourselves, durability is often at the forefront of our decision-making. It’s harder than you think. Highly durable phones often sacrifice a significant amount of performance in order to beef up the phone.

That was, until the latest Redmi Note 14 Series launched. Redmi’s latest phones – particularly the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G – boast some of the segment’s best durability features, all while balancing star performance in its cameras and AI features.

There’s hardly a better choice that ticks all the boxes. Here’s why.

All-star durability for all-round protection

The term ‘all-star’ is used far too conveniently nowadays that you might be rolling your eyes right now. But trust us when we say, this is no joke. Like a knight in shining armor, here to rescue you from the tragedy of a banged-up phone is the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G’s All-star armor structure.

Just how armored are we talking about here, you ask? For starters, the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G features Gorilla Glass on both front AND back of the phone. To be specific, the front display is protected with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 while the back is layered with Corning Gorilla Glass 7i. To be even more specific, this phone will survive jostling in a pocket full of keys and accidental drops off the bed when you’ve fallen asleep while doomscrolling.

Beyond that, the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G is reinforced with multi-layer shock absorption materials across crucial parts of the phone, including the screen, motherboard, and battery. We’re not saying you can be any more careless, but when you do (eventually) drop the phone, you can rest assured the highly reliable drop resistance will keep your phone in good stead.

Splash-Proof and Spill-Resistant

Perhaps the only thing worse than dropping your phone on the floor is dropping it in a puddle of water or spilling your drink all over it. Water-related accidents are far too drastic for most phones to handle, and may even require you to replace your phone entirely or fork out a hefty amount to salvage what’s possible.

This is why the IP68 rating for dust and water resistance is pivotal. The IP68 rating – once exclusive to questionably expensive smartphones – is featured on the far more reasonable Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G. By redesigning the internal structure, the phone provides comprehensive ingress protection to key areas. These include the type-C port, battery cover, buttons, and camera housing.

The Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G remains unfazed in any liquid mishaps. It will walk through water splashes and spills unflinchingly, and can even withstand temporary immersion in water for whatever reason you find yourself in that scenario.

Text flawlessly, even with wet hands

There are just some things in life that we just can’t control, like our phones when there’s even a single drop of liquid on the display. We know the pain of trying to skip songs while your hands are wet, or trying to message someone when you just came out of the shower. For some reason, our phones just become so uncontrollable you fear you might have inadvertently sent that risky text.

That’s not the case anymore thanks to the Wet Touch 2.0 feature on the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G. Redmi’s proprietary feature ensures reliable operations in wet conditions, allowing undisrupted usage even if you’re caught out in bad weather.

More than that, the improved feature goes beyond wet hands. The overall touch experience now detects even oil, foamy, and sweaty hands, encompassing relatable and real-world usage scenarios.

Uncompromised performance enhanced by AI

With all the robust durability features in place, you might have your reservations about the phone’s performance. We don’t blame you, as this is often the case with most durability-focused phones. However, this isn’t like most phones.

The Redmi Note 14 Pro series breaks new ground by being the first Note series to integrate AI features. You’ll have a host of AI tools at your disposal, including the Google-powered Gemini and Circle to Search, along with AI Notes, AI Recorder, and AI Subtitles.

The cream of the crop, though, is undoubtedly the suite of AI Photo Editing features. Complementing the highly capable 200MP image sensor on the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G are AI-enhanced tools such as AI Erase Pro, AI Image Expansion, and AI Cutout.

AI aside, the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G delivers reliable performance with the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 CPU. This, coupled with its 1.5K 120Hz display, 5,110mAh battery, and 120W charging, will give you an AI-enhanced experience like no other.

Redmi Note 14 Series: Where durability thrives with performance

The Redmi Note 14 Series is literally a hard one to crack, but your decision shouldn’t be. Opting for any model in the Redmi Note 14 Pro series is always going to be a sound choice, but the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G, in particular, stands out as our top pick.

Boasting a fleet of durability features – including the impregnable All-star armor structure and IP68 dust and water resistance – the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G will remain unscathed even in the clumsiest of accidents. Beyond its toughness, the phone ensures reliable performance thanks to the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset and a 200MP image sensor.

The best part? It doesn’t tag an unreasonable price. You can purchase the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G starting at RM1,699 for the 12GB+256GB model, or RM1,899 for the 12GB+512GB model.

If it’s peace of mind you want, then look no further. The Redmi Note 14 Series is now available through Xiaomi’s official platforms on mi.com, Shopee, and Lazada.
