Earlier this week, Xiaomi announced the Xiaomi CIVI smartphone in China. Aimed to target the youth and female audience, the CIVI handset offers an exciting design, a 32-megapixel camera, a 120Hz AMOLED panel, and Snapdragon 778G chip. Fresh information reveals that the company has no plans to release the smartphone outside China.
