The device is equipped with Leica Summilux optical lens, the result of the collaboration between Xiaomi and Leica, which represents a turning point in extreme miniaturized optics.
The sensor of the Mi 14 has a ultra-large size of 1/1,31 inch, with a single pixel of 1,2 μm and four in one reaching 2,4 μm.

Lei Jun said that: “the 75mm floating telephoto lens it is particularly good at taking long-distance close-ups. The 13 Pro was very popular after its first release, exceeding our expectations. This time we are determined to bring it to the standard version."
The 75mm floating telephoto lens is inspired by the lens structure of professional cameras and adopts a unique floating lens group design. The lens is divided into two groups and can be moved internally, so that the focus range goes from 10cm to infinity, allowing you to shoot both from far away and up close. This technology derives from reflex cameras. When shooting distant views, the floating focus module will move forward to reach the infinite focus distance; when taking close-ups, the focus module will move backwards and the minimum focusing distance will be 10cm.
