Mi A1 Summary

With Xiaomi adopting Google's Android One platform, a lot is at stake for both companies. The Mi A1 is capable of delivering on performance, and offers dual cameras as well. With Android O as well as Android P confirmed for the Mi A1, it is definitely ready for the future. However, low-light camera performance is not great and battery life is also a bit weak. At this price, the Mi A1 is a safe bet for those who like Xiaomi's hardware and Google's software.

Baaaddddddddddddddd Phoneeeeeeeee

Alpesh Patil (Oct 16, 2017) on Gadgets 360

Company doesn't have any quality check in their organisation. Packed piece have software defect which doesn't get solved even by service center guys and they will send your phone to company but you will never get any updates from service center or from company. If you ever go to service center for any solution you will see how many customers have issues with phones, I guess now company have degraded their quality and its recommended never to buy this brand again.................
