How many people still remember the beautiful picture mobile from that year? A mobile phone manufacturer that focuses on selfie experiences is too small, and the price of mobile phones released every year is too high, resulting in more and more declines. Fortunately, Meitu reached a cooperation with Xiaomi, and Meitu’s core beauty algorithm has also inherited the new series of Xiaomi CC. Later, the Xiaomi CC series gradually evolved into the Xiaomi Civi. With a thinner body, higher appearance, and better beauty experience, it became the "killer" mobile phone positioned by Xiaomi in the 2000-level market.
Last September, Xiaomi released the first generation of Xiaomi Civi models. As mentioned at the beginning, Xiaomi Civi focuses on thinness, high appearance and selfie experience. It attracted a lot of attention from Mi fans when it was released, especially female users. This phone has been on the market for more than a year and its price has dropped a lot. But judging from the current price, Xiaomi Civi is still worth buying. Regarding the core configuration, let’s start with the screen. Xiaomi Civi is equipped with a 6.55-inch micro-curved screen, supports 1 billion color depth, supports 120Hz high refresh rate, supports 5 million:1 contrast ratio, and the screen covers Corning’s fifth-generation Gorilla Glass. In terms of performance, Xiaomi Civi is equipped with Snapdragon 778G processor. This processor adopts a 6nm process and 8 core design. Although the performance of this chip is not top-notch, it is completely sufficient for daily use, and it is also easy to play some mainstream mobile games. In addition, when Xiaomi Civi was first released, the price of this phone reached two or three thousand yuan. To be honest, as a Snapdragon 778G phone, the price was a little higher at that time, but now 8GB+256GB is only 1,539 yuan, which is still quite cost-effective.
Snapdragon 778G is a low-power processor, which also makes the 4500mAh battery built-in in Xiaomi Civi bring an excellent battery life experience. One charge a day is enough for daily use. According to the official data, the simulated daily use battery life can reach 1.15 days, the headset can play music for 150 hours, and the video can play up to 19 hours. In terms of charging, it provides 55W wired fast charging, and the power is not low.
thin and thin is the characteristic of Xiaomi Civi. The body thickness is only 6.98mm and the weight is only 166g. Such a thin body is still top-notch even in 2022. You won’t feel tired after holding it for a long time, and even girls can easily control it. Moreover, the front and back sides of the Xiaomi Civi are both arc-shaped transitions, and there is no hand cutting phenomenon, and the feel is much better than iPhone14!
Photography is Xiaomi Civi's strengths. It has a front 32 million high-definition lens, supports AF automatic focus, and the camera has upgraded pixel-level skin renewal technology to make selfies more beautiful and natural. The rear 64-megapixel main camera + 8-megapixel ultra-wide angle + 2-megapixel macro, the camera has built-in AI magic clone, AI magic kaleidoscope, super night scene 2.0, AI movie light effect, AI super resolution front-facing super night scene, etc., which is very playable.
In addition to the configuration mentioned above, Xiaomi Civi also has NFC function, Wifi6, Bluetooth 5.2, stereo dual speakers, screen fingerprint recognition and other configurations.
As a mobile phone with lightweight positioning + high appearance + photography, Xiaomi Civi top-end 8GB + 256GB has dropped from 2899 yuan at the time of sale to 1539 yuan now, which is basically equivalent to a "50% off" clearance. Therefore, if your needs match the Xiaomi Civi phone, it is still worth buying at the current price.
