Talking about the Xiaomi CIVI series is talking about fantastic mobile phones, although the philosophy has changed a little since 2021 (the launch of the first generation). First it was a family devoted to beauty with the best cameras and the most competitive screens. However, the former has been taking some steps back to allow another element to take center stage: power.
The most obvious example of this transition was Xiaomi CIVI 3, but the change seems to have been completed with the fourth generation. because of? Because the brand is just getting started. The most powerful monster that many of us have seen comingAs a “Pro” model, even with a new name. We are talking about the Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro, a mobile phone with almost perfection in terms of features and prices. Keep reading to find out.
All details of Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro
An ultra-bright screen and an enthusiastic processor are two of the three calling cards of the Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro.
The new Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro is a mobile phone that leaves behind the “expensiveness” of previous generations and goes for a modest style, but it is still very functional. Of course, Xiaomi sells no less than seven colors, three of which represent a more sporty aesthetic, thanks to the large black plate that reminds us of POCO (albeit vertically). The latter are produced by Glass, vegan leather or a combination of both (depending on version).
But be careful, don’t panic. Xiaomi’s less commitment to aesthetics in this generation translates into important improvements in other areas, and we like that.
The first thing is the screen, because in CIVI 4 Pro you will find better quality, more brightness and resistance to cruelty. We no longer have a curved side panel, but we continue to opt for a 6.55 inch AMOLED panel with 120 Hz refresh rate and HDR10+. This time, the resolution is 1.2K, the maximum brightness of 3000 nits is twice that of the previous generation and the protection is provided by Gorilla Glass Victus 2.
At its heart is the new Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, a beastly powerful chip that rivals the best SoCs on the market. It comes with 12 or 16 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256 or 512 GB of UFS 4.0 storage. The operating system, as it could not be otherwise, is HyperOS runs on Android 14.
With a telephoto camera and optics signed by LEICA, the CIVI 4 Pro is truly impressive.
If we go to the cameras, there are also some interesting surprises because Xiaomi seems to have taken the Realme example with the Realme 12 Pro. For the first time in this series, we have a phone camera, a 50 MP sensor with PDAF. and 2x optical zoom. The main camera repeats at 50 MP, but it has a very good focal length of f/1.6, PDAF and OIS. The third rear camera is a 12MP ultra-wide-angle 120º field of view. On the front, they repeat the two 32 MP cameras (yes, two).One of them with 100º view. And yes, the lenses are signed by Leica.
anything else? Yes, the battery is now 4700 mAh (previously 4500 mAh), although it supports 67W charging and the speakers are still in stereo. 24-bit hi-res audio, But now there’s also wireless Hi-Res audio.
Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro price and availability
As you can see, Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro is a brown beast. It does justice to that “Pro” moniker in its name, as it’s a premium mobile phone for the first time by all accounts. It is now sold in China Standard versions: black, blue, pink and green. The fuchsia, turquoise and white versions will go on sale later.
In addition, you should know that the price is really crazy (better) because with all these improvements we expect a very expensive terminal. However, compared to the Xiaomi CIVI 2, the price increase is only 50 euros, which is how it is.
Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro 12 GB + 256 GB: 2999 yuan, an exchange of about 382 euros. Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro 12 GB + 512 GB: 3,299 yuan, an exchange of about 420 euros. Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro 16 GB + 512 GB: 3,599 yuan, an exchange of about 459 euros.
Will we see him in Spain? We ask, because No Xiaomi CIVI is sold under this name in our country.. However, the Xiaomi CIVI 2 was the Xiaomi 13 Lite (with some improvements) in Spain. So Xiaomi CIVI 4 Pro could very well be Xiaomi 14 Lite or Xiaomi 15 Lite.
