- weak processor
- No NFC
- moderate camera
- No fingerprint sensor
Despite the low price, the Xiaomi Redmi A1 scores with a high-quality and clean build and long battery life. However, the features could be better, even at this price. The processor and camera are only mediocre, and a fingerprint sensor is missing. There are better alternatives for 100 euros.
