The Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G Survived This… But Can Your Wallet Survive?

Spilled water? No problem! ✅
Unexpected drops? It’s fine! ✅

Stunning photos with pro-level AI? That’s just another day for the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G because this phone might just be the smartest and most rugged Redmi Note yet!

 

 

DURABILITY

Scene 1: Water Test

Let’s start with its standout feature—durability.

The Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G comes with IP68 rating. This means it’s built to survive splashes, spills, and even temporary full submersion.

For this test, I took it to the pool, it handled splashes and even quick underwater photos like a champ.

Now, the reason why it is so reliable in this particular situation is because of its 17 custom component protection on key areas like the USB-C port, buttons, and camera housing. Each device undergoes 10 air tightness tests to ensure it meets the highest quality standards.

And yes, it is very responsive even if your hands are wet, thanks to the Wet Touch 2.0 tech in this phone.

So whether you’re caught in the rain, or enjoying a water balloon fight, this phone has your back! 

Honestly, this phone could survive better than me at a pool party because I can’t even swim!

 

Scene 2: Scratch Test

Next up, let’s talk about the scratch-resistant display

The Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 gives 200% better drop resistance compared to the older Gorilla Glass 5 that is usually offered within this price range.

So this screen is tough enough to handle keys, coins, or any random sharp objects that you might be carrying in your handbag, or simply a pouch, and not a scratch in sight, very impressive!

 

Scene 3: Drop Test

Now, for the part that made me nervous: the drop test

The new All-Star Armor structure features shock-absorbing foams. With reinforced steel plates, giving it superior drop resistance, it’s like the phone went to the gym and decided to bulk up!

Whether the phone slips off your pocket while playing pickleball, falls from the top of a cat tree while you are playing with your cat, or more common situations of the phone falling while you are typing on your desk, or taking it out of your pocket, this phone is designed to withstand it!

This is because of the robust All-Star Armor Structure, with a thickened motherboard reinforced by six steel plates and strengthening ribs.

There is a high-strength, thermally conductive aluminum alloy frame that enhances overall strength by 10% over the previous generation. This improved design gives it superior bend resistance that exceeds typical industry standards.

But there are also multi-tier shock absorption materials across six major components, this includes a large foam pad and a ring of high-polymer cushioning gel underneath the screen to minimize impact damage.

So whether it’s a drop onto the pavement grass while hiking or walking in a park, from on top of a corner of the desk, or just clumsy like me, this phone can take it like a champ!

 

AI FEATURES

Now, durability is great, but what about being extra smart? 

Well, this is also the first Redmi Note series featuring AI-powered photography.

So the main camera is a 200MP Samsung HP3 sensor that captures outstanding detail, even in low light, thanks to its large 1/1.4” sensor and f/1.65 aperture as seen in these photos.

All of this is thanks to the Xiaomi Imaging Engine, where photos are processed faster with vibrant colors, richer details, and great dynamic range.

But it was the AI Editing Tools, which caught my attention even more, with features like the AI Magic Removal Pro that instantly remove unwanted objects from your photos.

Imagine photobombers, cluttered backgrounds, or your ex in that old vacation pic? Poof!—all gone with a tap!

Then there is the AI Image Expansion, where you can quickly fix imperfectly framed shots and creatively expand compositions.

And for those who love beautifying your selfies, AI Beautify gives 11 customizable options to enhance selfies naturally.
