Xiaomi 13 series is in the works and may launch by the end of this year. While we wait for an official confirmation, an IMEI database listing confirms the existence of a new 13 series smartphone, dubbed Xiaomi 13 Lite. The handset is rumored to be a rebranded version of Xiaomi Civi 2, which debuted last month in China, equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 processor. Let’s look at the details.

As per a report by Pricebaba, Xiaomi 13 Lite has made its appearance on the IMEI database with the model number 2210129SG. The “G” at the end of the model number means that this device will be for the global market. Further, the report claims that Xiaomi 13 Lite will debut as a rebranded version of the Xiaomi Civi 2.

Interestingly, the smartphone’s model number is exactly the same as the rumored Xiaomi 12 Lite 5G NE. This means both of these devices could essentially be the same but aimed for different markets. Or maybe the company is still trying to figure out which name is better.

Xiaomi CIVI 2 Specifications

For the uninitiated, Xiaomi Civi is a female-centric smartphone series, which is exclusive to Mainland China. The latest Civi 2 comes with a 120Hz Curved AMOLED display that produces a Full HD+ resolution. The display has a pill-shaped cutout for the selfie cameras at the top center of the display.

It is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 processor paired with up to 12GB LPDDR4X RAM and up to 256GB UFS 2.2 storage. Its major highlight is its front camera system. The device has dual 32-megapixel sensors on the front. While on the back, there is a triple camera setup comprising a 50MP Sony IMX766 primary sensor, a 20MP Sony IMX376K ultra-wide sensor, and a 2MP macro unit. It has a 4,500mAh battery and supports 67W fast-wired charging.
