Xiaomi‘s Civi lineup has carved a niche for itself, offering a compelling blend of style, performance, and camera prowess targeted towards the fashion-conscious and photography enthusiasts. While the Civi 4 Pro (full review) recently debuted in China, rumors suggest its arrival in India under the moniker “Xiaomi 14 Civi.”
The Xiaomi 14 Civi is expected to carry forward a similar set of features tailored to the tastes and needs of the Indian market. Let’s delve into what we can expect from this potential flagship killer.
Based on the Civi 4 Pro, the 14 Civi is likely to boast a 6.55-inch 1.5K (2750 x 1236 pixels) C8 12-bit AMOLED display. The display is expected to feature a 120Hz refresh rate, a pixel density of 460PPI, a peak brightness of 3000nits, and a 240Hz touch sampling rate.
The display is likely to be protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, offering increased scratch and shatter resistance compared to previous generations. Additionally, the display is expected to come with features like HDR10+ support, Dolby Vision, and high PWM dimming (likely 2160Hz).
2. Performance
Under the hood, Xiaomi 14 Civi is likely to feature the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor built on a 4nm process along with Adreno 735 GPU. This chipset promises blazing-fast performance, handling demanding tasks like multitasking, gaming, and video editing with ease.
In terms of memory, expect configurations with 12GB or even 16GB of LPDDR5x RAM. Storage options will likely range from 256GB to a whopping 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage, offering ample space for apps, games, photos, and videos.
3. Camera
The Xiaomi 14 Civi is likely to inherit the impressive camera setup from the Civi 4 Pro. The rear camera system boasts a Leica-powered triple-lens configuration, with a primary 50MP sensor featuring a large 1/1.55-inch OV50K Light Fusion 800 sensor and an f/1.63 aperture.
Accompanying the main sensor is a 12MP 120° ultra-wide-angle lens for capturing expansive landscapes and group shots. Additionally, a 50MP 2X telephoto lens with OIS allows for capturing zoomed-in shots without compromising on quality.
However, the true highlight might be the dual front-facing camera system. This unique setup features a pair of 32MP sensors, one with a standard 78° field of view and another with a wider 100° field of view.
4. Software and Battery Life
The Xiaomi 14 Civi is expected to run on Xiaomi’s own HyperOS user interface based on Android 14. This interface typically offers a customizable experience with additional features compared to stock Android.
The phone might pack a 4700mAh battery with 67W fast charging support, which should provide a full day’s worth of charge for most users.
5. Additional Features
Other expected features include an in-display fingerprint sensor, an infrared sensor, stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, and a range of connectivity options like 5G SA/NSA, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, and NFC for contactless payments.
6. Pricing
There’s no info regarding the pricing of the device yet. Based on the pricing of the Civi 4 Pro in China, the Indian variant could start around ₹35,000 for the base variant (12GB RAM + 256GB storage), with prices increasing for higher storage options.
