Xiaomi Redmi 9A Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Xiaomi Redmi 9A - powerful, autonomous and inexpensive?

For the Chinese company Xiaomi, nothing is impossible. More than once, we enthusiastically met the manufacturer’s smartphones in various price segments, after the release of which the opponents of the developer had to sweat seriously in order to make at least some competition. And it seems that the corporation from China decided once again to make a small but very pleasant revolution for users.

The appearance of the novelty has become more attractive in comparison with its predecessor. Although the case is still made entirely of polycarbonate, the reduced display bezels look definitely more interesting. The 6.53-inch OGS-panel does not amaze the imagination with its resolution (only 1600 x 720 pixels), but the contrast and brightness levels are quite decent for the value category, and there is an oleophobic coating, although not very effective.

Specifications have advanced. The Mediatek Helio G25 processor is no worse than the Snapdragon 439, and even with 2GB of RAM and a PowerVRGE8320 video adapter, it can run a lot of resource-intensive games on low-medium graphics settings. Information can be stored on both 32GB ROM and microSD cards .

The main 13- megapixel photo module is not the ultimate dream, but an excellent tool for daytime photos or document capture. You can get more from sensors only with considerable experience in mobile photography. A five megapixel front camera is suitable for selfies, but the lighting should be close to ideal in this case. The battery is characterized by a stunning 5020mAh capacity, providing about 10-12 hours of active screen time. MIUI's proprietary shell, low price tag increase the attractiveness of the gadget, which, to perfection, lacks only NFC for its price list. Otherwise, the phablet will definitely not disappoint millions of potential buyers.
