DxOMark is very well known in the world of smartphone enthusiasts. It’s a group of testers focused on evaluating the photo capabilities of smartphones. The new Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G disappointed them quite a lot in their testing.
Takes worse photos than its predecessor, the Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G. This follows from their test. The point difference is quite noticeable.
The DxOMark testers weren’t impressed by the Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G camera
Camera testing includes five key categories: photos, bokeh effect, zoom, preview (in the app vs. real life), and video. The categories were verified in various conditions—indoors, outdoors, and under different lighting situations.
Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G – Overall score 106 points, 149th place (currently 4th in the category of phones priced from 200 to 400 dollars)
Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G – Overall score 120 points, 105th place (currently 2nd in the category of phones priced from 200 to 400 dollars)
DxOMark positively rates the quality of the images produced in good lighting conditions. It praises photo consistency, smoothness, and also sensitivity. As negatives, they point to unstable video or insufficient maximum screen brightness outdoors—especially in direct sunlight. For the Note 14 Pro 5G, they also criticize a lower level of detail when using the ultra-wide camera.

In the comparison above, you can clearly spot a significant point difference in the photo category, where the Note 13 Pro 5G scored 121 points, while the newest Note 14 Pro 5G only got 103. In terms of video quality, the scores are even, but when it comes to shooting in worse lighting conditions, we see a clear difference 81 vs 68 points in favor of the “thirteen”.

The Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G is clearly better for photography
This shows that newer doesn’t always mean better. If you want a better camera phone, we recommend going for the older Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G model. At the time of writing this article (10. March 2025), it’s available at historically lowest prices starting from 262 € for the highest 12 + 512 GB version.
However, it’s quite possible the seller lowered the price due to a clearance sale of in-stock units, and sales of the Note 13 Pro 5G are slowly coming to an end. Don’t miss this chance.
