Outdated Product
A hit state employee from Xiaomi, suitable for the role of an everyday “tube” without claiming a high speed of the “flight” of applications. The smartphone was equipped with an “elongated” screen with 18:9 proportions, which is characterized by HD + resolution (1440x720 pixels) with a 5.45-inch diagonal. Fortunately, in the appearance of the gadget, they did without the notorious “monobrows”. However, the budgetary roots of the device give out sickly bezels around the display. The basis of the internal “hardware” of Xiaomi Redmi 7A 16GB is the eight-core Snapdragon 439 chipset, flavored in the basic version of the device with 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of non-volatile memory. In order to expand the capacity of the standard storage, the user will need to sacrifice a SIM card — one of the seats i...n the 2 SIM tray is combined with a microSD card slot. The smartphone is traditionally modest in photography (the set of cameras in its assets is represented by “one-eyed” modules of 12 MP from the rear and 5 MP for taking selfies), lacks a fingerprint sensor, but is strong in battery life without frequent “refueling” of 4000 mAh battery tanks . The device is running MIUI 10 based on Android 9.0 Pie.

One of the most affordable smartphones on the market

Redmi 7A is an ultra-low-cost device even by the standards of the initial segment. It's no joke, in some stores you can buy a version with 16 GB of memory for $90. Naturally, we will consider all the advantages and disadvantages of a smartphone through the prism of its price. Still, it would be foolish to require NFC or a dual camera from him.

old format

However, its format is frankly outdated. Redmi 7A flaunts all the attributes of two-year-old smartphones — thick side edges, a large chin with a company logo and no cutouts or unibrows in the screen.

Small case made of practical materials

The advantages of the old format also remained. Firstly, it is a relatively small height of 146 mm, which allows you to control your smartphone with one hand. This is an average of 10 – 15 mm less than modern models with full-view displays. Secondly, the case materials are extremely simple, there is no glass, gloss or aluminium here, only practical matte plastic. Although he looks modest, he does not scratch and does not collect fingerprints, like the now fashionable "backs" with a gradient colour.

Spartan Equipment

Naturally, in terms of the filling, this is the most simple smartphone from the “to work” category. So, most of the front side is occupied by a 5.45-inch IPS display with a resolution of 1440x720 pixels. For a low-cost phone, the screen is decent, you can only complain about a small margin in brightness. For hardware, the picture is as follows: an old Snapdragon 439, Adreno 505 video chip, 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal storage with support for memory cards. The equipment is spartan, but it is quite suitable for surfing, social networks or reading an e-book.

When the pros outweigh

Of the pluses, we highlight excellent battery life (thanks to the screen resolution and a 4000 mAh battery), splash protection, fast charging, a camera that is not bad for its price, and the regularity of MIUI firmware updates. For such a price, this is an important point. Cons — there is no fingerprint scanner and the weak margin of screen brightness mentioned above. In general, this is an excellent device for the money, since its main competitors are mainly second-tier Chinese brands like Doogee and Leagoo.
