Redmi 5a is a budget phone. And redmi says this is another best budget phone. Lats start the review.
Build & design - this phone is decent looking phone. It has 5 inch display and top 5 mp Front camera and bottom nothing it has 3.5 me jack and voice speaker and back 13 mp rear camera and Inbuild 3000 battery. Overall decent design and build.
Display - it has 720p display which is not out of the mark. Today’s date every budget phone has at least 1080p display. And display quality is decent and its colors are vivid and viewing angle is decent but very power consuming. Outdoor visibility is very bad.
Camera & music - back camera 13mp. And in this price range it has a decent camera. Daylight camera samples is good and vivid but low light it’s very bad and very noisy and camera is some time hang. Front camera is not out of the mark it’s only 5mp daylight is decent but no wide aperture and night shorts are un watchable. Overall OK camera please redmi give atleast a good camera. And music is horrible in good headphones it’s OK but speaker quality is very low.
Performance - it has snapdragon 425 quad-core processor and now a days it’s very old and ram management is ok. But when you extended gaming phone is very hot and lagy. So I am not impress.
Power - it has only 3000 mah battery and its performance is decent not redmi type. This only for cost cutting.
In my opinion it’s a decent phone but I expect more from redmi.
