Xiaomi's sub-brand Redmi will launch its latest budget smartphone, the Redmi A1, in India today, alongside the Redmi 11 Prime series. It will come in Green, Blue, and Black shades and will offer a clean Android experience. The device will bear a leather-like back panel, a MediaTek processor, dual rear cameras, and a 5,000mAh battery.
Redmi is all set to debut the latest entry-level and mid-range smartphones to expand its portfolio. The handsets aim to strengthen the brand's standing in India's fiercely competitive sub-Rs. 15,000 segment. The Redmi A1 is the first model in the company's "Made In India" Redmi smartphone line-up, which will also launch globally.
The Redmi A1 is said to feature a 6.52-inch HD+ (720x1600 pixel) LCD screen with a 20:9 aspect ratio. The smartphone will offer a waterdrop notch design, with a thick bottom bezel and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor. On the rear, it will sport a leather-like texture and dual cameras. Dimensions-wise, the device may measure 9.09mm in thickness and weigh 192g.
In the rear camera department, the Redmi A1 may include an 8MP (f/2.0) primary shooter and a depth camera. On the front, the smartphone could get a 5MP (f/2.2) selfie camera. It will offer a clean Android experience, meaning it could boot stock Android rather than MIUI.
The Redmi A1 will be powered by a MediaTek Helio A22 chipset. It is tipped to get at least 3GB of LPDDR4X RAM and unspecified eMMC 5.1 storage. Under the hood, the phone will pack a 5,000mAh battery. Connectivity options should include dual-SIMs, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth.
The official pricing and availability details of the Redmi A1 smartphone in India will be revealed at the time of its launch today at 12pm. In terms of colour options, the handset will come in Green, Blue, and Black shades. The device is expected to start at around Rs. 10,000 in the country.
