The Xiaomi Civi 5 Pro we have been hearing about since December has been certified by China’s 3C, taking it a step closer to launch.
The Civi 5 Pro listed has model number 25067PYE3C and supports 67W charging, but the listing on the Chinese regulator’s website doesn’t reveal any other specs.
That said, tipster Digital Chat Station has added some details about the device. According to their report, the Civi 5 Pro will be powered by an unannounced Qualcomm chipset bearing model code SM8735.
The chip in question is the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4. And if the leaks are accurate, it will feature a single Cortex-X4 prime core clocked at 3.21GHz, three Cortex-A720 cores at 3.01GHz, two more A720 cores running at 2.80GHz, and two efficiency-focused A720 cores at 2.02GHz. It will also come with an Adreno 825 GPU, though Qualcomm hasn’t officially confirmed these details yet.
Xiaomi Civi 5 Pro: What we know so far
Beyond performance, a previous report suggests the Civi 5 Pro will measure around 7mm in thickness and pack a 6000mAh battery. This will be an upgrade over the 4700mAh cell in the Civi 4 Pro. Meanwhile, the camera setup might keep the predecessor’s 50MP periscope telephoto lens offering 3x optical zoom.
Timing-wise, Xiaomi hasn’t confirmed a launch date yet. But the Civi 4 Pro debuted in March last year, meaning its successor is already overdue.
However, since the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 itself is rumored to launch in April, Xiaomi might hold off on announcing the Civi 5 Pro until after the chip is official.
There’s also a good chance Xiaomi will follow its usual playbook and bring the Civi 5 Pro to global markets as the Xiaomi 15 Civi.
The device has already surfaced in the IMEI database with two model numbers: 25067PYE3C for China and 25067PYE3I for India, hinting that a rebrand is on the way.
