After removing the word “Mi” on all of its new products, Xiaomi is also rebranding the CC line with the introduction of the new Xiaomi Civi.
The Xiaomi Civi is a premium midrange phone featuring a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G processor and a sleek, curved OLED screen with a fast 120Hz refresh rate.
Unlike its camera-centric cousins with 108-megapixel sensors, this one only has a 64-megapixel main shooter. If we’re lucky, a Pro model might come out later with a better camera.
Other notable features include a 55W fast wired charging support, stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, Hi-Res Audio, an attractive pink colorway, and an ultra-thin and light design.
The Xiaomi Civi will be available in China this September 30. It starts at CNY2,599 (around Php20,600) for the 8GB/128GB, CNY2,899 (around Php22,900) for the 8GB/256GB, and CNY3,199 (around Php25,300) for the top-tier 12GB/256GB model. Release details in the Philippines are yet to be known.
