Xiaomi
today announced the launch of Redmi A3, hailed as the best gift you can gift someone this April Holiday
season and the latest addition
to the entry-level Redmi smartphone family. Boasting a stylish design, a large,
high refresh rate display, AI dual camera, and more, Redmi A3 elevates the entry level smartphone user
experience to unprecedented levels of functionality and elegance.
Making style its central
priority, Redmi A3 addresses the preferences of users seeking an affordable yet
elegant glass design, as well as those who prefer a more subdued finish. Under
bright light, the back panel of the Midnight Black is designed to resemble
stars in the night sky, while the Star Blue variant reflects a rainbow-like
sheen that exudes sophistication and class. Redmi A3 is also available in
Forest Green1, featuring a smudge-resistant, matte, leather-textured
back design that exudes rationality and refinement.
All Redmi A3 models feature a
large, circular, finely detailed camera deco that presents a different sheen
depending on the angle of refraction and lighting environment. Moreover, with
an 8.3mm2 ultra-slim body for an excellent in-hand feel, Redmi A3
feels reassuringly robust, sleek, and crafted for optimal comfort.
Redmi A3 brings
high-definition video and social media content with a large 6.71-inch HD+
display that offers a refresh rate of up to 90Hz3 to deliver a silky
smooth, immersive experience that defies its price-point. Screen durability is
ensured with Corning® Gorilla® Glass 3 display
protection, while enhanced eye-care protection is provided by DC dimming that
reduces exposure to blue light and overall flicker.
Users on a budget can still
enjoy the upgraded AI dual camera system with 8MP main camera supported by an
auxiliary lens that enables stunning portrait shots. Users can also take
advantage of film Camera, which allows them to preview scenes using several
filter effects in real-time before taking the shot, a feature previously
exclusive to Redmi Note devices. A 5MP front camera is bolstered by a
beautifier that smooths skin tone, and a soft-light ring that brightens selfie
shots in low light conditions.
Every effort has been made to
ensure reliable user experience, with Redmi A3 supporting advanced security
features that include both Face Unlock4, and Fingerprint Unlock via
a fast and responsive side-mounted fingerprint sensor. Featuring a convenient
3.5mm headphone jack, Redmi A3 is also equipped with a USB Type-C 10W charging
port5. Sporting a large 5000mAh (typ) battery, Redmi A3 will keep
pace with users throughout the day and beyond, delivering up to 29 hours of
call time6, and up to 17 hours of video playback6. Redmi
A3 has also been rigorously tested to deliver outstanding physical durability,
completing roller testing (300 times)6 and USB durability testing
(10,000 times)6.
Delivering ample performance
and power efficiency, Redmi A3 is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Helio G36
processor, and is available in 3GB+64GB, and 4GB+128GB configurations. Extended
memory technology expands available RAM to up to 8GB7, ensuring
slick app loading and switching, while additional data storage is available via
a microSD slot, which supports microSD cards of up to 1TB8.
Redmi A3 is available in
Midnight Black and Star Blue1, in 3GB+64GB, and 4GB+128GB memory and
storage configurations, and will be available starting from KES 11,599
