Today, Xiaomi has unveiled the much-awaited Mi A2 smartphone with Android One at an event in Spain. Much like its predecessor i.e., MiA1, the Mi A2 flaunts a sleek metallic build with some upgraded hardware. The Mi A2 runs on Android One which means you will get a near stock Android experience with a few Xiaomi apps. The device will available in three color variants – Blue, Black, and Gold.

The Mi A2 sports a 5.99-inch Full HD+ display with an 18:9 aspect ratio without notch. It is virtually the Mi 6X, which was recently announced in China. It is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 660, coupled with an Adreno 512 GPU.
As for the optics, the device packs an upgraded dual rear camera setup – a primary 20MP (f/1.75) sensor and a secondary 12MP (f/1.75) sensor. This is complemented with phase-detection autofocus (PDAF), smart portrait, and some AI-based features as well as Face Unlock through the front camera.
Selfie department is handled by a 20MP selfie camera accompanied by a soft flash, which is complemented by features such as AI portrait selfies based on advanced AI algorithms, AI bokeh enhancement with selective foreground and background adjustment, front HDR, etc.
The device packs a 3,000mAh battery and supports 18W Quick Charge 3.0 charging via a USB Type-C port. However, there’s no 3.5mm jack. Google lens is integrated with the camera app and there will also be free unlimited storage on Google Photos. Moreover, MiA2 will also get Android P later this year.
