Xiaomi Mi A3 First Look: Android One, Triple Cameras, 4,030mAh Battery
The Mi A3 also has a significantly larger 4,030mAh battery as opposed to the Mi A2’s paltry 3,000mAh. But the biggest surprise comes in pricing. Xiaomi has launched the Mi A3 in India at a starting price of Rs 12,999 for the base variant with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, while the top-end variant of the phone with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage will cost Rs 15,999 – the Mi A3 is the cheapest Mi A-series phone that Xiaomi has ever launched in India.
That ridiculously low price also means that the Mi A3 goes head-to-head with the Redmi Note 7 Pro. Xiaomi believes the Mi A3 and Redmi Note 7 Pro are meant for two very different kinds of users – as has always been the case between the Mi A and Redmi Note-series phones.
The Mi A3 boasts of a glass-plastic sandwich design scheme. There’s a gradient finish on the back, but it’s a lot more subdued when you compare it with Xiaomi’s aura design seen in the Redmi Note 7 Pro. This is also true about the colours.
The Mi A3 has Corning Gorilla Glass 5 on the front, back as well as on the the camera module – making it the first Xiaomi phones to boast of such a level of protection. That AMOLED panel allows Xiaomi to offer an in-display fingerprint scanner for biometric authentication in the Mi A3.
The Mi A3 has a triple rear camera setup consisting of one 48MP main shooter with f/1.78 aperture, an 8MP ultra wide-angle camera with a 118-degree field-of-view, and a 2MP depth sensor for portrait photography. On the front, it has a 32MP camera. The phone is backed by a 4,030mAh battery with USB Type-C fast charging support (18W).
