Vishal Akbar 20, 04 Mar 2023It is 3.5 years now that I am using 7A. But now it's ... moreAgree, my 7A is 3 years old too and has been used on a daily basis, its my only phone.
It has been very reliable and even the battery(original) is still coping fairly well, used to manage 2 days on a charge, now max 1/1.5 day.
My phone became slow too, and it happened only recently, i haven't updated the MIUI since the last 12.5 but something has updated slowed the phone.
Was considering buying the Redmi 10C but decided to stick with my reliable 7A until it dies.
Very good phone for 67€ that i paid for it back in 2020.

    It is 3.5 years now that I am using 7A.
    But now it's getting sluggish. Understanding it's limitations, I have used it as a work phone ( just calls, WhatsApp and emails). But since last January, it has become very slow.
    But I will say it was a very good phone for the price. Compact and easy. Hard to find such phones now.

    If possible I may install custom ROM on this one and buy a new phone for my work.

      M4R3Ksom, 13 Feb 2023I have Redmi 7A and Redmi 9A in my possesion at the moment ... moreIf I remember correctly, the Redmi 9A is capped to 32-bit by the operating system, and the 7A is 64-bit, so yeah. Makes a huge difference. This basically means that the 9A could have been faster than the 7A, but only if it was 64-bit.

        I have Redmi 7A and Redmi 9A in my possesion at the moment and after comparing them for a day or two I can safely say that Redmi 7A is better phone in every aspect you can think of... I still cant quite understand this sorcery.. 7A is faster, has better camera, charges 10 times faster, and even runs on MIUI 12,5 while Redmi 9A is stuck with 12.0..

          2/32 variant

          price= good
          build quality = good quite compact
          design= 6/10
          camera = ok it's decent when there's a lot of light (it uses an sony imx sensor so it's atleast decent)
          games = bad in miui but in a custom rom it's doable
          battery life= super good, i have purchased it unused and it's an old stock battery the battery life time is 14hrs for daily use & 7-9 hours with gaming

          overall = 7/10

I recommend that they make a better version of 2022 with actual size of HD 5.45" but don't worry of it's size i would go for Smart, small, but built with quality. I have seen alot of people considering poor quality but big size.

                                  Who runs double tap to wake, accessibility and app lock? I noticed phone has become sluggish and screen isnt as responsive. Typing this is also delayed. Using the 2/32 variant.

                                        I have used this little beast for 3 years. No problem occured during this period. Bought it for just 120 euros, absolute bargain. If you want a cheap and ordinary, yet reliable smartphone, you gotta pick this one for sure. Battery saving quality is astonishing for that price. Also it is so lite that I cannot feel its weight while carrying.
