Xiaomi’s Mobile Product Manager recently hinted that a new smartphone was coming, and now there is growing evidence that it might be the Xiaomi Civi 2, which would be the Civi’s follow-up and would have debuted precisely one year ago.
Reports indicate that the Civi 2 will be ready to go live as early as this month and will sport the brand new Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 chipset. For reference, the Civi had a Snapdragon 778G on board, so it checks out. The handset already passed China’s 3C authority with model number 2209129SC.
A Chinese tipster revealed the phone will sport a 6.56-inch OLED panel with 120Hz refresh rate, up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage. A 4,500mAh battery will keep the lights on with support for 67W fast charging.
It will have a 50MP primary camera with OIS support, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and a 2MP shooter, perhaps for macro photography.
