Xiaomi Civi 5 Pro Review: Best Selfie Camera Smartphone in 2024
A 6.55-inch quad-curved screen with a 1.5K+120Hz LTPS display, featuring a 2160Hz PWM + DC-like dimming technology, delivers exceptional visuals. The screen’s manual peak brightness reaches up to 640 nits, while the full-screen maximum brightness soars to 1450 nits. Paired with an ergonomic design that offers a superior grip compared to mainstream flat screens, this device also boasts a metal frame for enhanced CMF aesthetics.
Under the hood lies the Snapdragon 8s Gen4 processor, built on TSMC’s N4 process with a fully large-core architecture. Coupled with the smooth-running PheiengOS2, it handles daily tasks effortlessly. Performance testing shows an average of 119.1 FPS at just 3.6W in high-quality graphics settings for popular mobile games. While mainstream titles run smoothly, high-load games like Genshin Impact may require additional cooling accessories for optimal performance.
For photography enthusiasts, the Leica-branded “Little Night God” front camera debuts with a 50MP JNP sensor. Enhanced by ultra-transparent nano-prisms, it excels in low-light selfies and supports 4K 60FPS video recording, including Live Photo functionality. The rear camera system features a 50MP main sensor with an 800-large-bottom light-and-shadow hunter, a 13MP OV13B10 ultra-wide lens, and a 50MP JN5 upright telephoto lens.
Although not a periscope-style telephoto, it matches the Xiaomi 15 model and supports macro photography as close as 10cm, delivering impressive image quality even on the Civi series.
Powering this sleek device is a robust 6000mAh battery paired with 67W fast charging, ensuring extended usage without compromising on a slim 7.45mm profile. Additional highlights include short-focus optical fingerprint recognition and a 0809 X-axis linear motor for refined tactile feedback. Overall, this phone strikes an excellent balance as a lightweight, stylish, and capable photography-focused smartphone.
