Design
First of all, Redmi 8A is a low-cost mobile phone, but Xiaomi has not let its design lag behind the mainstream trend. A drop-shaped gap was left on the 6.2-inch screen, and of course, the bottom also retained a bit of chin. This design is also understandable considering the nature of its entry-level phone.
Compared to the Redmi 7A, Xiaomi has increased the size of the display, and the border looks bigger, but this may be due to its huge battery. To be honest, despite the large battery, the Redmi 8A weighs only 188g.
The 3.5mm headphone jack is still widely available on entry-level phones, and the Redmi 8A is no an exception. The speakers are located on both sides of the USB-C connector.

The Redmi 8A back shell is made of polycarbonate material with a wavy texture and adds some friction. The most exciting thing is that it won’t be that much easy to leave fingerprints or scratches as Redmi 7A.
Operation
The Redmi 8A is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 439 chipset, which is the same as the Redmi 7A, so performance is not far off. In the actual using process, there have not been too many stuck. The Redmi 8A system uses MIUI 10 based on Android Pie. The software and hardware are well matched.
Camera
The Redmi 8A uses a 12-megapixel IMX363 sensor. In terms of model, this is the same as Google’s Pixel 3a series sensor. Redmi 8A is equipped with a 12-megapixel AI rear camera, a single camera, support PDAF phase focus, automatic HDR, AI scene recognition and face unlocking; front 8 million pixels, support AI portrait mode, background blur and AI smart Beauty and so on.
Battery
The real highlight of the Redmi 8A is the battery, which is a huge 5,000mAh battery. This should be the most important improvement in Redmi 8A. It’s worth noting that although the Redmi 8A supports fast charging, it comes standard with a 10W charger. If you want to use the 18W fast charging, you need to purchase another charger.
