Reviews for the Xiaomi Mi A3
The Xiaomi Mi A3 again aims to offer a lot of mid-range features for little money. However, actually we are not only seeing improvements compared to the predecessor. Find out in our test whether the 2019 model is still worth it.

In conclusion, the Redmi A3 emerges as a compelling entry-level smartphone, offering a blend of style, functionality, and affordability that’s hard to overlook in the crowded budget segment. With its glass back, detailed camera module design, and the inclusion of Gorilla Glass 3 protection, Xiaomi has clearly aimed to deliver a device that feels premium in hand without the premium price tag. The device’s design aesthetics, particularly the choice of colors and the glossy finish add to its appeal, making it stand out among its peers. The phone’s display, with its 90Hz refresh rate, ensures a smoother user experience in daily tasks, despite the lower resolution of 720p. This choice, likely made to conserve battery life, does not significantly detract from the device’s overall usability.

Android One is attractive for its timely system and security updates, and less bloated interface. The Mi A3 from Xiaomi has a few tricks up its sleeve to help it impress in this increasingly crowded market, including some of the most advanced cameras we’ve seen on an Android One phone. Performance is also capable for daily use, and the design is much more appealing than you should expect at this price.

The Xiaomi Mi A3 has everything that should be there in a mid-segment smartphone. However, the display resolution it offers for Rs 15,999 (6GB +128 GB) could be a dampener for some. Xiaomi has indeed kept the basics strong in this device. But the phone might miss on a few points (for keen techophiles) in the highly competitive mid-range smartphone segment. We can't blame it, though, can we? That’s the case with most of the phones these days.

And that’s a great shame, to be honest. Everything else aside, I think that if the Mi A3 had a Full HD+ Super AMOLED display, we’d be talking about a seriously good mid-range smartphone. I can’t deny that I’m really disappointed that something with so much potential has fallen short. I mean it’s not too much to expect a mid-range smartphone in 2019 to have a Full HD+ display, right?

With a Php 11,990 price tag, the Mi A3 is more affordable than the Mi A2 at launch and offers more features as well. Aside from a processor bump, you get an AMOLED display, triple rear cameras, a decent (albeit slightly slow) in-display fingerprint scanner, a bigger battery, a microSD card slot, and a headphone jack. While people may criticize the display resolution downgrade on the Mi A3, it is a small compromise to pay for all the features it has to offer at a sub-Php 12k price. The only other phone that can compete against the Mi A3’s is Xiaomi’s own Redmi Note 7: at Php 11,290 for the 4GB/128GB variant, you get a dual rear camera setup, a conventional fingerprint scanner, and an older Snapdragon 660 processor in exchange for a bigger 6.3-inch Full HD+ IPS display.

When compared to its predecessor, Xiaomi Mi A3 comes with a lot of amendments. It has brought back the 3.5 mm headphone and expandable storage support — the things Mi A2 was criticised for. Over that, it has also upscaled the design and camera performance by a vast margin, which plays in favour of the Mi A3 as the majority of buyers do consider these two factors paramount.

Should you buy the Mi A3? If you want a Xiaomi phone with the stock Android and one that will get upgraded to Android 10 quickly, Mi A3 is that device. The performance is not bad, the battery life has improved drastically and there are useful design changes like the re-addition of the headphone jack and splash-resistance coating. The selfie camera is impressive.

The Xiaomi Mi A3 is quite good when it comes to performance and camera but falls short in the display department. It offers just HD+ display whereas the competition offers Full HD+ display. Further, the A3 offers amazing battery life and the stock Android experience is quite smooth. If you want a stock Android experience instead of the custom user interface and can tolerate the low-resolution display, you can opt for this one. But if you are okay with a custom UI and can spend a little more, you can go for the Redmi Note 7 Pro which would also be good buy.

Xiaomi’s Mi CC9e has finally arrived in the Philippines, clothed in Android One and sold as the Mi A3. Xiaomi has followed roughly the same formula in 2019 as they did two years previously: pluck a fairly good bang-for-the-buck phone from their lineup, strip out MIUI and replace it with pure Android.

The competition under Rs 15,000 price bracket is tough in India. There are phones like the Realme 5 Pro, the Redmi Note 7 Pro, the Samsung Galaxy M30, among others. Despite tough competitors, I believe at Rs 12,999 the Mi A3 is a good deal if not great. Why not great? It's because of the screen and the overall performance of the smartphone.

See from the point of Android One, the Mi A3 is a great proposition. You get a terrific display and overall smooth performance with very good cameras and a compact form factor – very Nexus! But bring it into the mainstream and it suddenly starts looking vulnerable. The Mi A3 is a very good device for Android One fans, but if you do not value stock Android, you will consider alternatives. This is one for Android purists, really.

The Xiaomi Mi A3 is a good choice for an affordable phone, especially if the camera is your priority and you want regular software updates. But if you like watching videos, you could look elsewhere, because the screen isn’t up to the highest standards.

The Xiaomi Mi A3 will only appeal to people who really value the stock Android experience and software updates, and who want good camera performance, without breaking the bank. For that specific target audience, the Mi A3 is currently the best option there is in the market.

Yes, the Mi A3’s pricing and placement is a bit confusing. Its focus is supposed to be the camera but the ultra-wide angle lens feels a bit gimmicky. Android One is not exactly special anymore, thanks to Nokia’s entire 2019 lineup and the Xiaomi’s own Redmi Note 7 Pro offers a better chipset and a higher resolution display at a lower price. Which begs the question, should Xiaomi just kill the A series?

The Mi A3 combines a striking gradient design with decent internals and a clean software interface with the promise of quick updates. The 4030mAh battery easily lasts a day, the Snapdragon 665 chipset ensures there's no lag, and the 3.5mm jack is back. However, the 720p display is lackluster, and the in-display fingerprint reader leaves a lot to be desired.

The Xiaomi Mi A3 is a safe bet — a phone that does most things well, though nothing exceptionally. Its display and fingerprint scanner leave a lot to be desired, but its software and battery life are compelling.

Xiaomi bravely brought back the headphone jack, microSD card slot, together with a large battery. These are commendable feats - but the screen and performance are two major downsides that turned the Mi A3 into a dealbreaker. In a game of trade-offs, I think the Xiaomi Mi A3 is a downgrade compared to the Mi A2 from last year.

The Xiaomi Mi A3 has gotten so many things right that we are beyond conflicted at the end of this review. The screen is one of the most important features on a smartphone and the Mi A3 has the right panel but the wrong resolution. And then it goes to ace every test we've put it through. We can't call it a winner, that is certain, but it is truly unique in both good and bad ways.

Overall, we think of Mi A3 as a rival to the Google Pixel 3A in photography and performance, but at a significantly lower price. If your budget will stretch just a little higher the €329 Mi 9T is an excellent choice with a slightly faster chip and NFC.

Retailing in Spain from €249 the Mi A3 also looks to offer excellent value.
