Redmi 7a is phone from March of 2019... Also, don't know if you get it..? With this Samsung Galaxy A01, brand new, out of box, you get (only) 5.3GB free memory space, 5.3GB.. Because there is a ton of bloatware from Samsung (and Microsoft), there is no Corning Gorilla Glass, there is no even oleofobic cating (like i said), so all fingers and smudges stays on the screen, all time.. Wait, for 2 day there will be Xiaomi Resmi 9a, maybe it will be better, and more compact, than Redmi 8a.

Anonymous, 09 Feb 2020Yes they are. M20, M30, A20, A30 are all in the European st... moreMaybe they are in couple local stores in your city, with "Asian sim card only India sim card only etc.. but there is no M20,30, A20,30 with label or sticker "European sim card only" because is not for that market. So those phones, it's a from differente markets, at least in Germany there is no those phones, sold via Samsung, since launch date.

Q, 08 Feb 2020Just saying, out of the box with this phone we get like 7-8... moreThere are many low end phones that are starting at 16 gb storage and 2gb ram including the redmi 7a mentioned below, not everyone is running multigigabyte apps man, a browser is about 50 mb, whatsapp is about 100mb im sure many people using one of this basic phones to conduct their business will need no more than 1GB and some 300 mb of pics if you are really busy on a given day, talking basic needs here of course but then what can you expect for the price, in india this is the expected price:

You can somehow pa... moreNot at all, take all the phones that run android go, they all have 1 gb of ram, even the more expensive models A10/A10s start at 2gb. You see A10 is the second top seller phone in the world for 2019 just behind iPhone XR and it starts at 2GB.

Just 2GB of RAM is unacceptable in 2020. You can somehow pass by with 16GB of storage, but still...
This isn't even good option for kids or elderly. Why is such device even being sold in 2020?
It has worse specs than J7 2016...

Anonymous, 08 Feb 2020Set time apart to kill adds is good entertainment for kids ... moreJust saying, out of the box with this phone we get like 7-8GB (free), and thats a 2,3 apps, and 5-6 time update of ose apps, and internal memory will be full. Yes SD cards are cheap, but, anyway, all data from apps goes to internal memory, even if we set external memory as primary. But bigger problem is, screen there is no oleofobic coating at all, this is like only phone from known OEM that does not have OC. And about ads in Xiaomi/Redmi phones, there is a option to turn recomandation off, after that there is no more ads, if you turn them in Security >> cleaner, etc.. In "downloads", " Music", "File Manager", at least for country in EU (via region set), if you're in India, thats something else.. Also Redmi 8a have bad brightness, like Redmi 8, so if someone wants Xiaomi, it is better option to pick Xiaomi Redmi Note 8, same goes gor Samsung, A20 or better, with those cheaper device there is a always some compromise, in screen quality at least.

BlackHat, 08 Feb 2020My mom sent hers a50 the first week that she bough it due s... morePost full of fail dude, first this is the projected price in india for this phone:
https://www.gizbot.com/new-mobiles/samsung-galaxy-a01-7719/
And your mom had the fortune to get service for her phone due to support of a respectable brand, you know what happens if you crack the screen of your chinese phone? in a majority of countries you are not going to find service or parts, some guy that cracked an A3 screen could never find it so I directed him to aliexpress but as it turns out it costs almost as much as the phone (before shipping and without installation) so he had to get a new phone.
On the rest of your comments, you know all phones have bloatware so that's a given, your nice chinese phones have it too but bloatware doesn't get in the way of your work, ads do and in a bad way and spyware if there is there by any chance could cost you dearly if you store private or financial data on your phone.
I love it when people say how great of a deal their chinese phones are, a big LOL to them.

Q, 08 Feb 2020Well of you don't know how to turn those "ads" for like 20 ... moreSet time apart to kill adds is good entertainment for kids but if you are getting things done on a schedule with your phone is just unacceptable... a phone is there to serve you not to keep messing with you and you with it.. 16 extra gb are $5 or less, ridiculously cheap, even for a poor dude.

DavidNamdvili, 07 Feb 202016GB ? WTF ? 2020 year !Not everyone needs to have their whole life inside a damn phone... even in 2020, to conduct business a few IM apps and space for some pics is all you need and hardly you will get into the multigigabyte territory. Anyways a SD slot if offered so it shouldn't be a problem.

Anonymous, 06 Feb 2020Larger, much heavier and full of ads, way to go..... and MI... moreMy mom sent hers a50 the first week that she bough it due severe bugs with software (a samsung sign) after those bugs were fixed and despite of have a way powerful SOC lacks of a lot of smoothness due its poorly optimize software, you can look for comparison on youtube, and even in the comment section of those phones.
This phone is at least 40 euros more expensive than the Redmi 8A (according to the prices of this website), Heavier? yes but at least justify with a big battery, abusive? come on!, samsung phone comes with a lot of bloatware and in their cheap phones is worse.
And with 16gb where 14.7 are real (this is with all manufacturer, no samsung fault) 4-5 for the OS and 2-3 for basic apps: facebook, whatsapp, instagran, etc, Good luck having a minimal and decent experience after 3 months.
I rather take the risk with any other brand with at least better specs even if they are only over paper but cheaper.

BlackHat, 06 Feb 2020Redmi 8A: Same SOC, better battery (5000mah), better design... moreLarger, much heavier and full of ads, way to go..... and MIUI LOL.
If xiaomi can't come up with a good non abusive UI they should at least offer their phones with ad free android one for a premium. No doubt $10-15 would be well worth it.
I had the chance to try one of their A series phones with the android one OS and is severely lacking features even basic ones and have a pretty bad camera app but it is completely silent, no ads anywhere and decently fluid and responsive, no garbage installed opting out at setup, they just leave you alone, what a joy.

Anonymous, 04 Feb 2020You are a hardware specs obsessed dude like most people tod... moreI agree with you bro. I also consider UX superior to over-blown specs. I bought a Realme C2 but the experience was just pure bullshit. I traded it with my sister's Galaxy Grand Prime+ (she made no late in agreeing), and I'm happy with this phone because the experience is minimal and very easy. Plus Samsung rocks even at less numbers.

Anonymous, 05 Feb 2020Which of them is better?
Redmi 7A or Galaxy A01Here it goes:
The samsung has larger small bezels screen yet is lighter, PLS is samsung's IPS.
The 7a has larger battery but you will get to the end of the day with either phone. Has a compass sensor which is almost redundant with GPS. A 2 mp depth sensor for some pic styles.
The samsung has android 10 out of the box and oneUI 2 which is by far regarded as better than MIUI.
The 7As MIUI is an ads/spam machine that never stops and it takes time and effort to reduce the number of ads that cannot be eliminated fully. The 7a has android 9 and may or may not get 10. The 7a as most chinese phones can contain china spyware.
So there you go pretty much the same unless you want to pay extra for more storage BUT the user experience with samsung will be better.
