The Xiaomi Redmi 14C is approaching its official launch, with significant details emerging from various sources. Though the exact release date is still pending, the device has been listed in FCC and IMEI databases, and information about it has been spotted in the HyperOS source code.
The IMEI database has assigned the code ‘2409BRN2CL’ to the Redmi 14C, with internal model numbers ‘C3N’ and ‘C3NL.’ These identifiers have allowed XiaomiTime to uncover details about the device’s specs. It is suggested that the Redmi 14C may be powered by a MediaTek G81 chipset, though its exact designation remains unclear. Historically, the Redmi 13C featured a Helio G85, leading to speculation that the Redmi 14C could incorporate either a Helio G88 or G91 Ultra.
Various regional model numbers, including ‘2409BRN2CL’ for the USA, hint at global, Japanese, and Chinese variants. The FCC report confirms the ‘2409BRN2CL’ model supports 5G, which contradicts earlier expectations of a 4G-only device. This suggests there may be separate 4G and 5G variants of the upcoming smartphone.
