The Samsung Galaxy A14 is an Android smartphone designed and manufactured by Samsung Electronics. The 5G model was announced on January 4, 2023, and the 4G LTE model was announced on February 28, 2023. The devices also marked several as last, such as the use of an LCD panel display, eMMC storage, 15W Fast Charging only, and short software support, as its successor began introducing several upgrades.
Similar to its predecessor, the back and sides are made of plastic, and the front uses glass with an unspecified protection. While both models have a plastic back cover, they feature distinctive patterns to differentiate them: the LTE model has a stripes pattern, while the 5G model has a ripple pattern.
Both models come with a PLS LCD FHD display (1080 x 2408). This device would be the last Galaxy A1x model to have an LCD panel, as its successors use an AMOLED display.
The LTE model comes in a basic 60 Hz refresh rate screen, while the 5G model screen comes with a 90 Hz refresh rate screen.
Both phones come with the same 5000 mAh non-removable Li-Po battery, that supports fast charging of 15 W (Wired USB-C).
The devices use different chipsets and also vary by country: the LTE model either used the Samsung Exynos 850 (8 nm) or the MediaTek MT6769 Helio G80 (12 nm) chipset, while the 5G model either used the Exynos 1330 (5 nm) or the MediaTek Dimensity 700 (7 nm) chipset.
Both models offer multiple RAM and storage options, ranging from 4 GB to 8 GB of RAM and 64 GB to 128 GB of internal storage. The LTE model uses the eMMC storage (which also marks the last A1x model to do so), while the 5G model now uses the UFS 2.2 storage, a first for the overall A1x series.
Both phones come with expandable storage, the LTE and 5G international models using a dedicated microSDXC card slot, and the 5G USA's microSDXC using a sharedSIM slot.
Both models include a triple camera rear setup, although include different cameras. They both come with the same 50 MP f/1.8 (wide-angle) main camera with phase detection autofocus (PDAF), and a 2 MP f/2.4 (macro) camera. The 4G model comes with a 5 MP f/2.2 Ultrawide, while the 5G model includes a 2 MP f/2.4 depth lens. Both models use the same 13 MP f/2.0 selfie camera that is capable of 1080@30 fps video.
Both phones come with a 3.5 mm headphone jack, NFC, Bluetooth 5.1 side-mounted fingerprint scanner, GPS, accelerometer, proximity sensor, and compass. The 5G model also comes with a Bluetooth 5.2 gyro sensor, barometer (USA only), and FM Radio (Exynos 1330 only).
Both phones were released with One UI Core 5 on top of Android 13. They are slated to have two OS updates and 4 years of security updates (until 2027).
