There has been speculation for a while that the company might bring the Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro as Xiaomi 14 Civi to India.
The Xiaomi 14 Civi moniker was also spotted on the Mi Code back in March this year.
This basically means that the smartphone will join the existing Xiaomi 14 series in India, which currently includes the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Ultra.
Fuelling the purported Xiaomi 14 Civi will likely be a 4,700mAh battery, that will come with a 67W fast charging support, as seen on the Xiaomi 14 flagships.
Like the Xiaomi 14 and 14 Ultra, the Xiaomi 14 Civi can also be expected to run on Android 14-based Xiaomi HyperOS.
Xiaomi has just shared a new teaser on its official X account, and it is a clear dig at the Apple Crush ad for the iPad Pro. The ad was released right after the Apple iPad launch earlier this month, and it quickly found itself in the middle of a controversy. Apple has to eventually issue an apology for the commercial. The ad showed various creative tools and objects, such as a piano, a camera, and cans of paint, being destroyed by an industrial crusher. At the end of the ad you see the iPad Pro emerge. This offended a lot of people from the creative industry. Apple even had to pull back the ad. Xiaomi is now taking a dig at the same ad suggesting that no creativity was crushed.

Xiaomi’s first-ever Civi smartphone in India: What to expect
