Xiaomi has made the Redmi Note 14 series official a few days back. This new lineup consists of three phones, and the top-end Pro model has secured a spot in the latest mid-range smartphone ranking from AnTuTu. This placement is interesting because a phone needs to pass at least 1,000 valid benchmark runs throughout a month to make an entry into this top 10 chart.

Smartphones featuring the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, which has been available since March, have yet to appear in this list. The Redmi Note 14 Pro has only been available since September 26, and the phone passing the 1,000 valid runs requirement suggests that the phone has probably become very popular in China.

Of course, the smartphone didn't really get a commendable position on the list. More specifically, the Redmi Note 14 Pro has the 10th position in the latest top 10 mid-range list from AnTuTu. This lower position is mainly because of the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, as the SoC isn't as capable as the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3.

For reference, the OnePlus Ace 3V, which is the Chinese variant of the OnePlus Nord 4 with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, secured the first position on AnTuTu's list (512 GB OnePlus 12 curr. $599.99 on Amazon). In fact, the Redmi Note 12 Turbo with the Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 has a better position, achieving the 5th spot in the latest AnTuTu mid-range chart.

This shows that the Redmi Note 14 Pro could've offered a much better value if Xiaomi went with Snapdragon 7 Gen 3. As for the other phones on the list, you can check them out from the picture attached below.
