Xiaomi has recently launched the Xiaomi 12 Lite smartphone in some markets like Malaysia and the Philippines. It is a 5G-ready phone powered by the Snapdragon 778G mobile platform. Some reports have claimed that the company is also working on another device called the Xiaomi 12 Lite 5G NE, which will replace last year’s Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE. The purported Xiaomi 12 Lite 5G NE has been certified by Singapore’s IMDA authority.

Around five months ago, Xiaomiui spotted the 2209129SC and 2210129SG model numbers in the IMEI database. The former will be launching today (Sept. 27) in China as the Xiaomi CIVI 2 smartphone. There is a possibility that the 2210129SG, which is heading towards the global market, may bear some similarities to the CIVI 2.

As it is known, the CIVI 2 will be a female-focused phone for the Chinese market. The Xiaomi 12 Lite 5G NE, on the other hand, may end up as a tweaked version of the CIVI 2 for the global market.

The Xiaomi CIVI 2 will feature a 6.56-inch AMOLED display with curved edges and a centrally positioned punch-hole. It will support an FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. It is just our assumption that the Xiaomi 12 Lite 5G NE may end up with a flat AMOLED display.

The Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 will power the Xiaomi CIVI 2 with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of native storage. It will arrive with a 4,500mAh battery and 67W fast charging.

It will feature a 32-megapixel (main) + 32-megapixel (ultra-wide) dual front-facing cameras. Its back panel will house a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 triple camera unit.
