Mi Notebook 14 specifications and features
The standard Mi Notebook 14 is quite different from the Horizon Edition. The former features a 14-inch screen bearing FHD resolution and thick bezels on the top and bottom of the display. The laptop sports an all-metal unibody design. It comes with stereo speakers and DTS audio processing.
Under the hood, the Mi Notebook 14 houses a 10th-gen Core i5 processor. It is paired with 8GB DDR4 RAM. The laptop is offered in 256GB or 512GB SSD storage options. Users also get the option to choose between an integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 or a dedicated NVIDIA GeForce MX250 GPU. The later comes with only 512GB storage.
The Mi Notebook 14 is rated to offer up to 10 hours of battery life with support for 65W fast charging. It comes with a bundled HD webcam. Connectivity options on the laptop include two USB 3.1 ports, USB 2.0, HDMI port, WiFi and Bluetooth 5.0.
Mi Notebook 14 price in India
The Mi Notebook 14 without dedicated graphics is priced at Rs 41,999 and Rs 44,999 for the 8GB + 256GB and 8GB + 512GB configurations. The version with an NVIDIA MX250 GPU paired with 8GB RAM and 512GB SSD costs Rs 47,999. It is available for purchase on mi.com, Amazon, Mi Home and Mi Studio.
