Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro launched: a combination of style and performance

Third-party reviews

What we like about Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro (16GB + 512GB)

  • Attractive, premium, thin, and light design, with some variants featuring a comfortable vegan leather back and curved screen for good in-hand feel.
  • Excellent camera quality overall, especially the rear Leica system, with good performance in night mode, portrait shots, and 4K video recording.
  • Powerful performance for daily use and gaming, thanks to the capable Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset and ample RAM/storage options.
  • Fast charging capabilities (67W) that can achieve a full charge in under 45 minutes.
  • Vibrant and high-quality 6.55-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1.5K resolution, and high brightness (3000 nits peak).
  • Good battery life for general use.
  • Generally considered easy to use with a smooth HyperOS interface.

What we don't like about Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro (16GB + 512GB)

  • Some users reported the phone can heat up more than usual, even during non-demanding use.
  • Lack of durability in some cases, with one user reporting the phone stopped working after two months.
  • The selfie camera, while good, is not considered on par with the quality of the rear cameras and can produce pale skin tones in photos.
  • The phone is a China-version device, meaning it typically only supports English and Chinese languages and may have limitations on network bands (e.g., lack of Wi-Fi 6E support due to regional regulations).
  • Some users experienced software issues like random restarts or difficulty with initial setup.
  • The USB Type-C port uses older USB 2.0 speeds.
  • Some reviewers noted that photos can have weird color shifts in daylight.

Verdict

The Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro (16GB + 512GB) is a premium mid-range smartphone featuring a powerful Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor, a vibrant 6.55-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with 3000 nits peak brightness, and a versatile Leica-backed triple rear camera system (50MP main with OIS, 50MP telephoto with 2x optical zoom, and 12MP ultrawide) plus dual 32MP front cameras. Its main pros include a sleek, ultra-slim, and lightweight design with an aluminum frame, flagship-level performance, and exceptional camera capabilities, especially for portraits and selfies. However, the cons are the lack of an official IP rating for water resistance, no wireless charging support, and no expandable storage via a card slot.
