Xiaomi has expanded the availability of its Redmi A3 smartphone model by making it available to Malaysia this week.
Redmi A3 launched last month as an entry-level smartphone in India. Now, the company has decided to bring it to the Malaysian market, noting that the model sells for RM429.
Despite its price and being marketed as a budget smartphone, nonetheless, Redmi A3 comes with a decent set of features and specifications, including a generous 6.71-inch 720p LCD display with a 90Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 500 nits. The display also has a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass for protection.
Inside, it houses a MediaTek Helio G36 chipset. However, it only comes with 4GB RAM, but its 128GB storage can be expanded up to 1TB through a microSD card slot.
Meanwhile, its camera system consists of an 8MP primary lens and a depth sensor. Both cameras are placed inside a circular camera bump that consumes almost all the upper half part of the camera’s rear. In front, there’s a 5MP camera, which is also capable of 1080p@30fps video recording as the rear camera system.
Other noteworthy features of Redmi A3 include its 5,000mAh battery with support for 10W charging, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, 4G, Wi-Fi 5, and Bluetooth 5.4 support.
