Xiaomi Redmi 8A Dual 2 GB / 32 GB / India technical sheet
The Xiaomi Redmi 8A Dual is suited to buyers who want a basic phone and prioritize battery capacity, while accepting a dim display and performance worse than most phones of its time. Its 5000 mAh battery has more capacity than most phones launched around the same time. The 18 W charging rate, by contrast, is average for phones of that period.
The 6.22-inch IPS LCD display reaches 400 nits peak brightness, among the weakest figures of its time. Its 270 ppi density is also lower than that of most phones from the period, a drawback for anyone who values a sharper screen. With 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage, its AnTuTu result is worse than most phones of its time. Storage is expandable.
The rear main camera uses a 1/3.1″ sensor, among the smallest of its time, and an f/2.2 aperture. The phone runs Android 9, supports two Nano-SIM cards and has USB Type-C. Its connectivity is worse than most phones launched around the same time, while its camera is among the weakest of the period.
Its overall NeoScore is 3.6. The Redmi 8A Dual suits basic needs for buyers who put a large-capacity battery first; the display, camera and performance are the main compromises.
