Well I recently bought this mobile and I am very happy with this terrific performance. I can say this is much more better than iphone.yes the iphone is uncomparable but I believe for the people who have the budget limit can surely go for this awesome fone.I have been fan of xiaomi from the very begining. I mostly liked the OS and the Snapdragon processor of this mobile. The look is average while the double camera quality of of course one of the best part. Photos clicked are of very good quality and video quality is very good in this price range. Talking about the battery life avobe 3000Mah is always powerful and 4 GB ram is something that accelerates your mobile performance. Sound quality is another appraisal part of this mobile which is far better than other competitors in the market. For me a front camera performs really well and decent photos are taken. the inbuilt features are also very good and there is no heat problem.High end games can be played easily as the Ram performance is really good.well I can say is If u are looking the budegeted mobile device with high end performance then yes MI A1 is for you. worth the money.
