This series, which attracts attention, especially with its elegant and slim design, also impresses with its front camera. This series, which tries to be perfect like women, is prepared with special meticulousness in every aspect.
Every detail of this device is prepared by obtaining data on how women use a smartphone. Xiaomi Civi series, which has an aesthetically very stylish and elegant design, stands out with the features it offers especially to female users as well as daily tasks.
Xiaomi Civi series first appeared in 2021. This model, which is sold only in China, has attracted great interest, especially from female users. In 2022, the first Xiaomi Civi 1S and a few months later Xiaomi Civi 2 appeared. While Xiaomi Civi 1S was actually a slightly improved variant of Xiaomi Civi, Xiaomi Civi 2 brought the biggest innovation for the series, the dual front camera. This device is also called the Xiaomi 13 Lite. The last smartphone in the series, the Xiaomi Civi 3, was launched in May this year. This model is the first in the series with an optical image stabilization (OIS) main camera.
Design
The Xiaomi Civi series features slim frames with a rounded design. These thin bezels also reflect women’s sophistication and command of every detail. It also allows it to offer its users a screen-to-body ratio of over 90%. In terms of thickness, the phones have a maximum thickness of 7.56mm, which can be considered quite thin. With a weight of less than 180gr, it almost does not disturb the users.
It is quite obvious that the design is inspired by the elegance of women. The rounded edges of the phone strengthen the feeling of grip. Thanks to its easily graspable structure, every user can use this smartphone comfortably.
Screen
The screen of the Xiaomi Civi series measures 6.55 inches, making it easy for women to use the phone. A screen of this size is the perfect size to make it look smaller and more elegant than most smartphones on the market. With an elegant and small screen, the Civi series uses OLED panels. It also has a 120HZ screen refresh rate and features like HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, which are used in flagships for women who like to consume content and can distinguish every color.
For women who can easily distinguish colors from each other with a single glance, it is a very successful move to choose displays with a very high color scale. When this screen quality is combined with frameless screens, it is clear that it promises a very pleasant experience.
Performance
Xiaomi Civi series is always powered by the best mid-to-high-end chipsets of the year it is released. This means that women who choose a Civi series smartphone will be able to use it for a long time. In addition, the use of such chipsets is an indication that Civi series is aimed to provide the closest performance to flagship devices.
Civi series devices are supported by a 3D Vapor Chamber cooling system to utilize the full power of these chipsets due to their thin structure. Civi series offers users a minimum of 8GB RAM and 128GB storage options on all gadgets. In this way, especially female users do not have to take and delete too many photos. They are ensured to use their phones for a long time.
Battery
Despite such slim, elegant, and powerful features, the Xiaomi Civi series has a very large battery capacity. The entire series has a battery capacity of 4500mAh. This means you can spend long hours on the phone using social media apps, making phone calls, and taking lots of photos. Such a large battery capacity requires high-speed charging technologies. Xiaomi Civi and Xiaomi Civi 1S are supported with 55W fast charging, while Xiaomi Civi 2 and Xiaomi Civi 3 support 67W fast charging.
Knowing that women’s time is precious, Xiaomi uses industry-standard fast-charging technology in the Civi series. In this way, they can fill the batteries of their smartphones in short periods of time without breaking the flow of life.
Camera
Since the Xiaomi Civi series appeals to female users, the most important point is the front cameras. In terms of camera features, Xiaomi Civi and Xiaomi Civi 1S have a 32MP selfie camera on the front. In Xiaomi Civi 2 and Xiaomi Civi 3 models, the 32MP selfie camera is accompanied by a 32MP wide-angle camera. In addition, in night shots or environments with insufficient light, the front camera experience increases many times more thanks to the dual LED flashes on the front.
Camera features on the back side, and a triple camera setup is preferred in the entire Civi series. Xiaomi Civi and Civi 1S models have a 64MP main camera. This camera is accompanied by an 8MP wide-angle camera and a 2MP macro camera. Xiaomi Civi 2 has a 50MP IMX766 main camera. A 20MP IMX376K wide-angle camera and a 2MP macro camera are used as auxiliary cameras. Xiaomi Civi 3 has a 50MP IMX800 main camera. The main camera also has OIS support. This camera is accompanied by an 8MP IMX355 wide-angle camera and a 2MP macro camera.
As for the video shooting of the Xiaomi Civi series, it can record 4K 30FPS video with the rear camera. Since Xiaomi Civi 3 has OIS support, it will have more stable video recording than other Civi series devices. Surprisingly, the front camera can record 1080P@60FPS video. While most of Xiaomi’s flagships prefer 1080P@30FPS video recording on the front, the Xiaomi Civi series offers a 1080P@60FPS video recording option. Even more incredible is that the Xiaomi Civi 3 offers 4K@30FPS video recording. With these video recording options, it is once again proof that the Civi series has been developed specifically for women.
With these camera features, we can see what women expect from a smartphone camera and that they are properly met in every phone of the series. Especially the advanced features of the camera show that it will be indispensable for women who are passionate about selfies. While most manufacturers use 1080P@30FPS video recording on the front cameras of their phones, it is admirable that the Xiaomi Civi series uses values such as 1080P@60FPS or even 4K@30FPS.
It is stated that user experience and aesthetic values were prioritized in the development of the Xiaomi Civi series, and the opinions of female engineers and designers were decisive. While this approach gives the series originality, it also adapts to the expectations of users and enables modern technology to reflect the female perspective. It would not be wrong to say that it is a stylish, slim, and elegant smartphone series that understands the language of women.
