Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite (Redmi 6 Pro)

Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite / Redmi 6 Pro  — Clean Android One Experience at a Budget Price

The Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite, also known as the Redmi 6 Pro in China, was announced in July 2018 and quickly became one of the most compelling budget smartphones of the year. It stood out from the competition by offering a clean Android One experience, a large battery, and a notch display design at a price well under €200 — a combination that was hard to beat at the time.

The phone features a 5.84-inch display powered by the Snapdragon 625 chipset, a dual 12MP and 5MP primary camera setup, a 5MP front camera, a 4000mAh battery, 64GB of storage, and up to 4GB of RAM. The Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2280 pixels at approximately 432 PPI delivers sharp, vibrant visuals for everyday browsing and media consumption.

The Mi A2 Lite offers a good, bright IPS display with very stable viewing angles, an appealing camera, fast eMMC storage, long battery life, a triple tray for dual SIM, and biometric unlock features that work extremely well. The rear-mounted fingerprint sensor and infrared port add extra convenience at this price point.

The phone runs Android 8.1 Oreo, upgradable to Android 10 with MIUI 12 and Android One support — giving buyers a clean, bloatware-free software experience with guaranteed security updates. MicroSD card support up to 256GB via a dedicated slot provides generous expandable storage flexibility.

The release of the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite introduced a serious new rival for the smartphone competition in the price range below 200 Euros, and it remains one of the most well-rounded budget phones Xiaomi has ever released.
