Redmi 7A Summary
Xiaomi Redmi 7A was launched in June 2019 and came in Matte Black, Morning blue, Matte Blue, Matte Gold colors.
The phone is packed with a lot of powerful features. The budget phone is the successor to the Redmi 6A and is meant for budget users. It has an excellent battery with fast charging and great cameras. The smartphone has a splash-resistant body and affordable price, which makes it a good deal.
It comes with an array of numbers and acronyms picked to win any specification war at the price point. That is to say; it comes with a 4,000mAh battery, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 439 processor, a glass rear.
Redmi 7A features a 5.45-inch HD+ (1440 x 720 pixels) display with an aspect ratio of 18:9. Meaning the phone does not have any kind of notch cutout that has become an intrinsic part of modern smartphones.
Now, with the Redmi 7A, the company aims to disrupt the entry-level smartphone markets once again. The smartphone is a noteworthy upgrade over its predecessor, but the Realme C2 provides more with its alluring design, larger display, and dual rear cameras.
Display and Design
The smartphone got a 5.45-inch IPS LCD touchscreen HD plus display.
It has a polycarbonate body. It weighs 150 grams. The device has AI Face Unlock that heightens the security as well as the convenience of the phone for users.
The rear of the device houses the rear camera, the top holds the 3.5mm headphone jack, on the left side is the SIM card and dedicated microSD card slot, on the right is the volume rockers and power button, and on the bottom of the device is the micro USB 2.0 and the speaker grill.
Camera

The phone constitutes a 12MP rear camera with LED flash and a 5MP front-facing selfie camera with support for face unlock. The 12MP rear camera on the Redmi 7A takes crisp shots with quality sharpness and great colors, at least when the ambient light is subtle. The images captured in daylight look good on the device and are worth sharing on social media platforms. When seen on a large screen, however, you do notice the shallow depth and weak dynamic range, but that is expected at this price level.
A major gripe with the camera is the inconsistent focus lock. The phone makes every effort at locking focus, and even little movement resulted in blurry photos. Furthermore, another issue is the shutter delay, mostly while taking images in HDR mode. The device often made us wait for a second or two while it saved a photo.
Performance and Storage
The smartphone runs on Android 9.0 out of the box with MI UI 10 proprietary OS and is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 439 processor with Adreno 505 GPU. It has a 2/3GB RAM and 16/32GB of storage which is expandable with a microSD card of up to 256GB. The 2GB of RAM is certainly performance congestion, but if you are not running games in the background, multitasking will be smooth
Battery
It is powered by a 4000mAh Non-removable Li-Po battery which supports fast charging. With modest usage, and with the pleasant standby times, this phone could positively serve as a ‘2-day’ smartphone. For most, however, it will be a device which can be pushed all day without fear of running out, an achievement in itself.
Extra Features
Connectivity options included in the smartphone are Bluetooth 5.0, Dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, and GPS. The. It comes with accelerometer, proximity, and compass sensors.
The Redmi 7A is priced at about 50,000 Naira depending on your location.
