Xiaomi Redmi 5A
Key specs
Critic consensus
“The Xiaomi Redmi 5A is a solid smartphone that is very easy to handle. With its price tag of less than 100 Euros ($116), it offers the best price-to-performance ratio in this price range.”
“The Redmi 5A is a capable smartphone with a perfect screen size and resolution. At a price of Rs 5,999 for base model (without subsidies), the phone is worth every penny and is certainly the most responsive smartphone in its category.”
“It’s clearly a mass-market product, aimed at bringing first-time users, low-income buyers and people looking to upgrade from a feature phone to the Xiaomi family. What you get for not a lot of money is a capable beginner smartphone that ticks all the boxes and offers a reliable smartphone experience.”
