We rarely get to play around with US-specific smartphones of a more budget stature. That hasn't stopped us from recommending the Samsung Galaxy A13 5G, sight unseen if you're looking for a handset in the $200 ballpark, but we still felt a more thorough approach was fitting. So, with that in mind, we tracked down a Galaxy A14 5G and brought it to headquarters for reviewing.
A little clarification is needed here, though. The Galaxy A14 5G is available in different markets with different chipsets. The US spec has the Dimensity 700 inside, while the one sold in India uses the Exynos 1330 chip, which is a more powerful platform. That is to say, while a lot of our findings here will apply to all A14 5Gs, some bits will be specific to the Dimensity variant - battery life and possibly image quality, for example. While they may end up being similar between both versions, that won't be something we can confirm for a fact. Performance, on the other hand, will be better on the Exynos variant - that we're confident saying.

With that out of the way, the Galaxy A14 5G isn't a huge update over the A13 5G. That Dimensity 700 we've been rambling on about on this one comes straight out of the A13 5G. The rear camera system remains unchanged, too - a 50MP actual camera is joined by 2MP macro and depth units. Battery capacity is still plenty, at 5,000mAh, but the new phone is somehow 7g heavier.

That 'somehow' quickly gets answered when you look at the display, which is now 6.6 inches in diagonal (6.5 inches on the A13 5G). More importantly, the new panel has a 1080p resolution as opposed to the 720p on the older model - that's an upgrade we can appreciate. Another welcome upgrade hides in the waterdrop notch at the display's top edge - the selfie camera is now 13MP as opposed to 5MP.
