Editorial report

Xiaomi Redmi A2 technical sheet

The Xiaomi Redmi A2 is suited to anyone looking for a basic Android phone for everyday essentials, provided 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage are enough. It is also sold in 3 GB / 64 GB and 4 GB / 64 GB configurations; the version covered here is the entry configuration.

Its 6.52-inch IPS LCD display has a 720 × 1600 px resolution and a 60 Hz refresh rate. That refresh rate is among the lowest of phones from its time, while its 269 ppi pixel density and 420-nit peak brightness are lower than those of most phones launched around the same time. The MediaTek Helio G36 and 2 GB of RAM accompany an AnTuTu result below that of most phones of its time. The rear camera's 8 MP resolution is among the lowest for the period. It records video at 1080p and 30 fps, but has no optical image stabilization.

The 5000 mAh battery capacity is typical for its time, but 10 W charging is slower than on most phones launched around the same time. The phone supports two Nano-SIM cards and includes a 3.5 mm audio jack and FM radio. Overall, the Xiaomi Redmi A2 is among the weakest phones of its time. It makes most sense for buyers focused on basic functions rather than a more capable display, performance or camera. Its overall NeoScore is 3.6.
