Xiaomi Mi A1 review

12 October 2017
With the Xiaomi Mi 5X confined to the domestic Chinese market soon after launch, its double, the Mi A1, is called upon to boost the brand's global presence. Steered by Google, Android One is full of potential and Xiaomi's looking keen on getting its message across a wider audience and, of course, making some profit in the process with the Mi A1.

            I am using this beautiful beast for a month ago. I think the one con it has is its front camera, it does not provide pictures with a 2megapixel camera. Iam very much disappointed with it.

                          How to set dual sim ringtones.its major issue for this model only.anyone send suggestion pls

                            Why they have to bother making a new body. They can take the Redmi Note 4 and get Android One working on that and ask for a slightly higher price.
                            I now have the S8+ but couldn't remove my itch of getting the RN4 because it is so good in value and to experience it.

                              This phone is a typical Xiaomi. Screen is good, stock works fine and fast, camera is really bad and poor, selfie camera is even worse, battery life is actually pretty good even though its only 3000mAH.

                              Worth it for the money, but not the best. Even other Xiaomi phones are cheaper like RMN4. I owned a Mi5 and that had a much better camera but no SD card slot

                                    i ordered Xiaomi Mi A1 for 15000₹ from Flipkart but i cancelled my order on its delivery day 14th oct and now again i ordered it. this diwali sale is awesome.
                                    I got this phone for 13300₹.
                                    Go for it fast.. offer is on HDFC card and PhonePe app from 14th to 17th October.
                                    I am loving it.
                                    It was so hard to resist..to not take delivery of phone and order a new one but ₹1700 discount forced me to do so.
