All the phones released these days are too big moving away from the easily pocket-able sizes

    Anonymous, 25 Sep 2019No 48MP or 64MP camera, No buyBruh it isn't even a hundred bucks (though I, too, wouldn't buy it because this is gonna have a ton of ads)
    Otherwise, I'm glad to finally see USB-C on the cheapest Redmis now. Hope Oppo/Realme and the like follow suit

                iamoct, 25 Sep 2019Server you right google. 1/10 price has the same camera. Not same camera app, and if you instal Gcam, also won't be the same quality, but hey for 85€ it's not that bad, i guess.

                    mumbaikan, 25 Sep 2019I am using Motorola One Vision as my primary phone and 21:9... moreI don't understand why you're talking about the Motorola One Vision, the Redmi 8A has a 19:9 ratio display and 75.4 mm width(if that's the correct dimensions), not 21:9 and 71.2 mm.
                    Then this whole essay about your life with smartphones, wow...

                        IR ?! very good news it has IR sensor

                          ipolit.matveich, 25 Sep 2019Very good for the price, Shame they didn't make a small one... moreI am using Motorola One Vision as my primary phone and 21:9 ratio is new generation compactness. Trust me I myself feel comfortable now using this phone.
                          My biggest mistake was selling iPhone SE for Motorola Z2 Force. I lost Z2 phone. Then broke twice display of Nokia 6, Twice back glass of Samsung A8+ and once display then went for Moto Z2 play as secondary phone and Nokia 8810 as primary phone.
                          After using almost 45/50 days now my primary phone is Moto One Vision and I have untill now only once dropped it accidently in compsre to prior almost daily onces.

                            Server you right google.

                            1/10 price has the same camera.

                                Whackcar, 25 Sep 2019I remember the times when $100 got you crappy useless phone... moreAbsolute right u r. Hence to run $100/200 phones smooth Android One was born and it happens so that accidentally it went to Mid range & Flagship devices and Low budget like Redmi 8A, Moto E6s, Nokia 2.2, Samsung A10 were again left out. Why not give Android Go or Android One with this.


                                  As per now a days trend of asking more I will ask for 15W charger instead of 10W & NFC on this Redmi 8A.

                                  For my secondary use (strictly only for video callings) i don't want to spent more than $100 and here Redmi 8A and Motorola E6s seems interesting too me til now. Let's more details fold out so I can purchase anyone of this during Flipkart Big Billion Day sale in India.
                                  Guys do u notice any other phone around which is more promising then these two?

                                    this camera sensor (12mp - imx 363) is better than Mi Mix Alpha camera sensor (100mp) because imx 363 have Dual Pixel PDAF autofocus and made for compete with Samsung S Series Camera.
