Wow....this is the 1st ever early review from gsmarena after launch

[heshammedhat]

I'm not interested much in phones but I wait for Angie's reviews

Ordered this last week to replace my A1 that is only a month old. Great experience with the androidone software.

This phone is awesome! Everything works smooth and of course android one is one of the reason I bought this phone (running with Android P & will get Android Q in the future update). This phone is cheap in Indonesia. Gaming is smooth, multitasking also work well, camera is great (you can change with another gcam mod if you want), size of the phone is good too, not too big and not too small, gorilla glass 5, this phone is the winner in mid-range competition. IMO.

Such a promising phone for a considerable price 👌

What is your current phone since you had the 5t as a daily driver, Angie?

[osamayshak]

i want to see a full review of this phone. i bought it and it still haven't arrived yet so it should be very interesting to see whats it like to use and how good it is?

[kobmasa]

How is the battery life on the device and is it worth the upgrade from the mi a1, I am also curious about gaming abilities of the device

[lasbrujazz]

Will you make video for Mi A2 Lite? I'm kinda interested into that rather than this

[AElShahawy]

I suggest making a speed test video about Mi A1 vs. Mi A2.

[Laimix]

Im really on a fence between buying A2 or A2 Lite. A2 Lite has bigger battery, headphone jack but kinda old processor (Im not heavy gamer I just want snappy performance) and on other hand A2 has better processor, camera (which I dont care about so much) and Type C with fast charging. My main question is although A2 will drain battery faster but having Fast charging will make up for it? How fast is really fast charging and how much worse is the battery life than Lite? I appreciate all the answers

[migueljaquez]

How does the screen compares to the last gen? Does the selfie cam has portrait mode?

[wyim]

Furthermore, May I ask if it is good to use the 20MP camera for taking some detailed pictures?

[KumaTechnGadget]

Lesser battery capacity from the lite version, No SD Card Slots, NFC will be difficult. Asus Zenfone 5 will be another choice of that. But it's Xiaomi, we'll see.

Video recording? Wide angle shots? DOF? Image stabilization?

[zeroinz]

3 things i wanna know:
1. camera performance
2. how long the battery last on normal use.
3. is it better than redmi note 5 pro?

[ahmadiarismaharto]

But about Mi A2, they should have kept 3.5mm jack, included NFC, included 4100mAh battery like previous Redmi products, included dedicated MicroSD slot, and made the rear camera bulge thinner (even if they had to make the overall size thicker) to keep a more balanced weight distribution. Oh and they should have kept the screen under 5.5" but kept the 18:9 ratio and thin bezels to keep the overall size smaller.. I hate the fact that phones are getting obnoxiously bigger. Though I do praise the Mi A2 for not having a stupid "notch".
