Xiaomi mostly promoted its higher mid-range camera series phones in China, where the CIVI series is highly popular. Now, the Xiaomi 14 CIVI is about to create waves in India thanks to its outstanding specs. The Xiaomi 14 CIVI’s features, characteristics, and unique selling points set it apart from other Xiaomi 14 series models are all covered here.
Xiaomi 14 CIVI: What’s new
The Xiaomi 14 CIVI features a 6.55-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 3,000 nits of peak brightness. The display has a 1.5K resolution and is certified with Dolby Vision Atmos and HDR10+. The phone is thin—just 7.4 mm thick and weighs 177 grams.
The phone’s Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 CPU is mated with up to 12GB LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB UFS 4.0 storage. With a T1 Signal Enhancement Chip that promises higher network speeds and reduced latency, it has Xiaomi’s unique IceLoop cooling technology.
A feature of the configuration is the triple rear camera system, which German camera manufacturer Leica tweaked. This has a 50MP primary camera, a 12MP ultrawide camera, and a 50MP telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom. Each of the three cameras from Xiaomi also records in 4K. In a pill-shaped notch, the phone also has two front cameras: a 32MP primary sensor and a 32MP ultrawide sensor for broader selfies. Previously accessible only on the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Ultra, Leica’s real and colorful modes are also available on this handset.
Notable features also include Bluetooth 5.4, an IR blaster, an under-display fingerprint scanner, NFC compatibility, and a 4,700mAh battery that supports 67W rapid wired charging.
