Xiaomi Civi 2, powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC, was launched in China in September last year. Now, the smartphone brand is reportedly preparing to release a possible successor.

An alleged listing on the MIIT website, spotted by tipster Digital Chat Station, shows the Xiaomi Civi 3 with model number 23046PNC9C.
