The new CIVI family is a strong mid-range with just enough power (SD778G) and an excellent camera (64 MP). The selfie camera is what stands out and its software features. The image processing sensor itself is 32 MP and features GAN software image enhancement AI algorithm.
Selfie camera
The biggest innovation in the software is that the previous skin repair algorithm used environment-sensitive blurring and the results were very visible. CIVI, on the other hand, fills in the area with real skin texture, so you can zoom out and get human skin instead of a big blob.
Prices
The price of the Xiaomi CIVI is similar to the Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE phone, although as it is made in China, it is lower. More precisely:
- 8/128 GB - 2.599 Yuan ~ 121.900 Ft
- 8/256 GB - 2.899 Yuan ~ 135.960 Ft
- 12/256 GB - 3.199 Yuan ~ 150.000 Ft
The phone is intended for the real Chinese market, not sure, but it could be a European model, like the Xiaomi CC series. You can watch the full presentation with Hungarian commentary here.
