Reviews for the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite

80% Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Review: Setting a New Standard for Budget Phones
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
Budget Android phones don't come better than this. The Mi A2 Lite has a premium design with 19:9 notch display, dual rear cameras and decent performance. Storage is generous, and we like the fact you can bolster the 64GB internal space with microSD cards up to 256GB in capacity without sacrificing dual-SIM support. A great budget buy.

Xiaomi phones can be offputting for users in the UK because of their MIUI interface and lack of support for Google Play, but that is not the case with this Mi A2 Lite. It's running Android One, with full Google services preinstalled, and you don't need to import it from China. It offers excellent value for money and easily surpasses other budget phones at this price point, with a good all round spec that includes a premium design, decent cameras and great performance.

Sure, there might be some better phones out there, but none of those will give you the regular Android updates and unburdened operating system that only Android One device could offer. And on that price the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite deserves to be considered every time someone is shopping a budget smartphone.

Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Price, Specifications + Features Revealed!

A year after Xiaomi released their first Android One smartphone – the Mi A1, they are now releasing TWO Android One devices – the Xiaomi Mi A2, and the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite. Here are the Mi A2 Lite price comparison, availability and specifications!

First Shots In Madrid: Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite

Nevertheless, it’s obvious looking at the photos that the Mi A2 Lite can hold its own against its more expensive brother, at least when shooting outdoors. Indoor shots inside the Toledo Cathedral show the limits of the camera sensor, which doesn’t have the same low-light prowess of the Mi A2 thanks to its 20-megapixel secondary camera with Pixel binning.

Xiaomi Mi A2 and Mi A2 Lite Hands-on, Quick Review: Solid Budget Phones With Pure Android
Source: Unbox English Archive.org version
Xiaomi’s strategy of stuffing the best possible hardware in a phone then selling it at near cost to the consumer is one that has managed to propel it to superstardom, earning it millions and millions of fans worldwide. But not everyone is a fan of MIUI, the overlay that comes standard with each Xiaomi phone that comes out of China – some may even say that it’s one of the biggest stumbling block for the company’s hardware in some Western markets like Europe.

Xiaomi Mi A2 & Mi A2 Lite Hands On: Promising (And Affordable) Android One Devices

In a price-sensitive market like ours, I reckon Xiaomi’s latest Android One devices will catch the attention of many Malaysians. The only thing that’s left is for Xiaomi to launch the Mi A2 and Mi A2 Lite locally, which will likely happen very soon.

Finally, the Mi A2 Lite also benefits from Android One, which means the most recent Android 8.1 Oreo is available and it's free of bloatware. Once again, we hope this time Xiaomi and Google deliver on the promised timely updates for the next 24 months to come.

It is a very small display format for smartphones. You should by no means be mis-sighted and you will generally see very little on the screen and only have a small resolution available. In return, the device should be very small and handy.
