I recently bought this device and would like to share my personal experience as followsThe device is pretty ok but not awesome in any sense if you are comparing it with anything from oneplus or samsung note. Dont be fooled by its specification as it has lag issues with its camera as well as while playing games. Maybe the bigger camera is taking tooo much of the machinge. I would say it is user friendly in normal use but we dont pay so much for normal use device, right.SOund and reception of the phone is pretty ok and I had no issue with it . The style design and looks are impressive, the main reason I bought it. But when it comes to value for money the REDMI NOTE 9 A has disapointed me a lot. Pls do not be get lured by its stunning looks as performance is more important.
