Xiaomi brings the Civi series to India : Launch of the Xiaomi 14 Civi!
Calling all photo enthusiasts in India! Xiaomi has finally introduced the Civi line, starting with the Xiaomi 14 Civi. This marks the debut of the Civi series in the Indian market, following its launch in China back in 2021.
The 14 Civi joins Xiaomi’s 2024 flagship lineup, which previously consisted of two phones. Priced competitively, it becomes the most affordable option within the series.
Despite its budget-friendly tag, the 14 Civic boasts impressive specs. It packs a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor, up to 12GB of RAM, and a triple-camera system co-engineered with Leica – the same camera technology found in the higher-end Xiaomi 14 and 14 Ultra.
The Xiaomi 14 Civic comes in two choices, depending on your storage needs. The base option with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage starts at Rs 42,999. If you need more space, the 12GB RAM and 512GB storage variant goes for Rs 47,999.
Mark your calendars! Sales for the 14 Civi begin on June 20th. You’ll be able to snag one on Flipkart and Mi.com. To sweeten the deal, Xiaomi is offering a Rs 3,000 discount for ICICI bank cardholders.
But wait, there’s more! Early buyers will also score some freebies: 3 months of YouTube Premium, 100GB of Google One cloud storage for 6 months, and a Xiaomi priority club membership.
