Xiaomi Civi 6 Launch Rumours Resurface; Tipped to Feature Customisable AI Shortcut Key

Xiaomi Civi 6 may arrive in China soon, according to a new leak that is circulating online. The phone was previously rumoured to have been cancelled after an October report claimed the Chinese smartphone had no plans to continue the Civi lineup. Since then, there had been little information about a successor. However, fresh updates from Chinese tipsters now suggest that the device is still in development and could launch in the coming months. Notably, Xiaomi introduced the Xiaomi Civi 5 Pro in China in May 2025.
