Xiaomi 14 Civi Review
Xiaomi launched its new 14 series phone Xiaomi 14 Civi in India on June 12. This phone comes with the powerful Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor and has three 50-megapixel rear cameras of Leica brand, which are similar to the rest of the phones in the Xiaomi 14 series.
This phone has a curved AMOLED display, whose brightness goes up to 3,000 nits. With a 4,700mAh battery, this phone supports 67W fast charging. It seems that this phone is a new name of the Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro already launched in China.
Xiaomi 14 Civi Features and Specification
Till now we have known which phone Xiaomi has launched and what is new in this phone. But now let us know about Xiaomi 14 Civi specifications and features in detail.
Design and Build
The first thing that comes to mind when you see the Xiaomi 14 Civi is its amazing design. This phone is very thin and light, it does not feel like you are holding a phone when you hold it in your hand. The reason for this is its 7.4mm slim body and quad-curved glass on all four sides. This glass is made of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 which gives a lot of protection.
You get three color options – Cruise Blue, Macha Green and Classic Matte Black. The phone that came in our hands was Macha Green color, the specialty of which is its matte finish and smooth gradient texture. It is not a fingerprint magnet, which is a good thing.
Display
The Xiaomi 14 Civi is also not behind in terms of display. It has a 6.55-inch AMOLED display, which has a resolution of 2750×1236. This display supports 120Hz refresh rate, meaning you get a very smooth experience while gaming and scrolling.
The brightness of the display goes up to 3000 nits, so you can easily see the screen even in sunlight. Also, it also supports Dolby Vision, which doubles the fun of watching content. Overall, this display is great and perfect for entertainment.
Performance
The Xiaomi 14 Civi is equipped with the latest Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor, paired with up to 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage. This combo gives strong performance and you can easily run any app or game.
However, when it comes to gaming, the phone gets a bit hot. This can be a problem if you play high-graphics games for a long time.
Camera
The Xiaomi 14 Civi comes with a triple rear camera setup, which includes a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP 2x telephoto lens and a 12MP ultra-wide lens. On the front, you get a double camera, both of which are 32MP, one of which is an ultra-wide lens.
The camera performance is good. Photos are quite sharp and detailed in daylight. The color reproduction is also perfect. The 50MP telephoto lens is capable of taking good close-up shots.
However, this phone falls a bit weak in low-light photography. The pictures get blurry and the detail is reduced. The telephoto lens also does not perform well in low-light as it does not have OIS.
Battery
The battery life is not very good. This phone comes with a 4700mAh battery, which is a little less than the 5000mAh battery found in most phones. If you use it for everyday tasks, it can last for a day, but if you use it too much, you may have to look for a charger by the evening. In the test also, it gave only 12 hours and 15 minutes of battery, which is less than other phones available in the market.
Xiaomi 14 Civi Price and Availability
The price of Xiaomi 14 Civi is a little higher! The variant with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage is priced at ₹42,999 and for the model with 12GB RAM and 512GB storage, you will have to pay ₹47,999. It comes in three colors – Cruise Blue, Macha Green and Shadow Black. You can buy it from Flipkart, Mi.com, Mi Home stores and Xiaomi’s retail partners from 12 noon on June 20.
The good thing is that its pre-booking is starting from 2 pm today. On pre-booking, you can get Redmi 3 Active for free. Also, ICICI Bank customers will also get a discount of ₹3,000 on card payment. Three months of YouTube Premium subscription and 100GB of Google One storage for six months are also available with the phone. So if you are thinking of buying the phone, keep these offers in mind too!
Should you buy this Phone
Yes, the Xiaomi 14 Civi is a very stylish phone. It comes with the latest Snapdragon processor, which makes its performance very strong and the camera also takes great pictures. So if you want a phone with a good camera and looks attractive, then this can be a good option for you.
But, there is a slight problem, its price seems a bit high. Other phones with similar features are available in the market, such as OnePlus 12R which charges faster or Samsung Galaxy F55 5G in which the same processor is available at a lower price. So it would be better to choose the phone keeping all this in mind.
