Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro smashes predecessor's sales record on debut
Xiaomi launched the Civi 4 Pro as the first phone with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset and Leica-branded cameras. The phone is a huge upgrade over the midrange nature of its predecessors and has proven to be a huge success among fans in China.
The company revealed it shipped 200% more devices in the first 10 minutes of the flash sale, compared with the entire first sale day of Civi 3.
The Civi 4 Pro arrived with a 6.55” AMOLED with Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on top and two 32 MP front-facing cameras behind a pill-shaped cutout. The triple cameras on the back are 50 MP main + 50 MP portrait with 2x optical zoom + 12 MP ultra-wide-angle – all very potent options for what is now a premium device.
The Civi 4 Pro launched with three memory combinations and no less than seven color options. The starting price was CNY2,999 ($415/€380) but we don't know yet whether the phone will make it outside China, with or without a Lite moniker.

Good point. Definitely these companies that report on smartphone sales are expecting increased sales overall this year both in China and globally.

That's fair enough, main reason I'm happy is bc last year was VERY bad for smartphone sales so any victory is a good one imo. but yeah definitely more than a few phones aren't beating last years models

Some model never come outside china market, o even EU. There company mistake, make only China market or just India, some of models will be more popular then they launch global like 13, 13t or pro. Strange strategy
