Notably, the global version of the Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro will be the same as the Chinese variants of these handsets. To recap, the company launched the Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro in China back in December. The Xiaomi 13 Lite, on the other hand, will be a rebranded version of the Xiaomi Civi 2.

Details about the Xiaomi 13 Lite smartphone's pricing have already surfaced online. As if that weren't enough, an unboxing video of the upcoming handset has popped up on the internet. The recently leaked video (via Sudhanshu Ambhore) corroborates past leaks that suggest the Xiaomi 13 Lite is merely a rebrand of the Civi 2.

The video showcases the black colour variant of the Xiaomi 13 Lite. The Chinese smartphone giant will reportedly launch the handset in blue and pink colour options in the global market. Furthermore, the video shows Xiaomi will provide a 67W fast charger and a USB Type-C cable in the box. Aside from this, the box will include a TPU case for the Xiaomi 13 Lite.

The Xiaomi 13 Lite will reportedly sport a 6.55-inch AMOLED panel with an FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Moreover, the device features eye-catching curved edges. This display supports 1920Hz PWM Dimming and Dolby Vision. It also delivers a peak brightness of 1000 nits.

The smartphone packs a powerful Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 processor under the hood. Notably, the nm-based Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 succeeds the Snapdragon 778G+ SoC. The processor will be probably paired with up to 12GB LPDDR4X RAM and offer up to 256GB UFS 2.2 storage.
