Xiaomi has just unveiled a new smartphone in India: the Xiaomi Mi A1. Featuring a “flagship dual-camera” – it’s a similar implementation as the iPhone 7 Plus’ – and a premium all-metal body, the Mi A1 is a pretty interesting smartphone.

At the launch event, Xiaomi emphasised the A1’s dual-camera system quite a bit. Featuring a 12MP 50mm telephoto lens and a 12MP 26mm wide-angle lens, the A1 can do 2x optical zoom. Much like the iPhone 7 Plus, the OnePlus 5, and of course, even the Xiaomi Mi 6, Portrait Mode is also present on the Mi A1.





But the most interesting aspect of the Mi A1 is perhaps the fact that it is “created by Xiaomi, powered by Google.” That’s right: the Mi A1 is indeed Xiaomi’s very first Android One smartphone. Basically, users can expect a stock, clean version of Android on the Mi A1; this alone makes the device that much more compelling. Android Oreo is said to arrive on the A1 within this year too.

UPDATE:
The Xiaomi Mi A1 will be priced at INR14,999 (around RM998).
Not sure on the timeline. Probably as soon as late Sep. Will be on sale in India on 12th Sep though. Expect a month or two for it to arrive to our shore.

"If you’re interested, fortunately you don’t have to wait too long like previous Xiaomi models. As announced, they are targeting to offer the Mi A1 in Malaysia by end of September 2017."

lol. xiomi borong all SD625 in market.

i think software support handle by Google..not Xiaomi since the phone is running on Android One..

apple rumors dual camera..everyone follow go do lol

bodo.
apple not the first company to launch dual camera

btw how defog sd625 can be a flagship?

then sd835 would be a flagshit?

If only they use Snapdragon 660

S625 is okay-ish. but if the phone price is cheap like Mi5x I buy

bongok since when appol was the first dual cam phone?

Sorry no offence but are you retarded or something?

flagship camera, not flagship SoC.
they use same camera in the Mi6 Flagship phone.

waiting for xiaomi M4A1

its technically mi5X with stock android.
price in india rs15k.
so in RM will be 1K

apple never the first, but always set the trend.
apple follow 1 do dual-camera, now many also want dual camera.
apple follow 1 no 3.5 jack, now got some other follow.
apple make nicely square phone, all oso follow, no more weird shape nokia phone.

stock android.. this seems interesting

will be available globally.but i doubt will get enough stock.

yeap...definitely looks like ipong..

coz it is a cheap phone.
u want high class go buy ipong

Roughly converted, around 998MYR. Plus minus tax and other stuff, shouldn't more than 1.4-1.5k MYR.

Looks normal to me just like any other recent xiaomi phones with capacitive home button key.

Am still using nexus 6. Will get one if the price is right.

I bet the price is no more than 1.5k MYR. Heck it's probably lower than 1.3k MYR.
And it's coming the end of this month!

Htc do phone aluminium unibody, all phones follow

anything with stock android is a good buy
u dnt top spec to run stock android

Disgusting.

Android are not cheap enimore....me sadding...

there pong model named A1 reminds me of this...

Running stock Android?? This is good..

Good looking phone

thinking of getting one to replace my aging note 4

Aiyo baru cadang2 mau beli note 4x

This one kira not bad because running stock Android instead of MIUI.
If price around 1k then it's better buy compared to redmi note 4x.

agree, there are not much mainstream, affordable pure Android phone other than pixel(motorola ,oneplus , lenovo is near stock)

if place near 1k is a good buy

+ Nokia(HMD)

im still using N5
and if the price is right, im really considering changing to this
my phone low on storage already

Then u shd get the cheap iphone 8 at USD 999

waiting mi mix2 release next week 1st see how

different segment.

Why everyone wanna benchmark with apple...

xiaomi is too dependent on india market. if indians boycott china product, xiaomi will be in deep shit.

xiaomi stock android > all

too bad, battery 3000mah instead of 4000mah like redmi note 4.

Yeah if currently you're having perfectly working phone and considering Redmi Note 4, hold your horses.
Wait and get the A1 instead(at least that's what I would do if I were you).

14,999 rupees= equivalent to rm 997

so far I noticed electronic items are way more pricier in India

it will be officially launched soon by the end of September

Just like iPhone 7 plus?? Is it supposed to make you feel good? Lol

malas google ni

Android One - Wikipedia

Android One smartphones run software close to stock Android, no user interface customisation is possible.

u mean, like this?

Rather wait for official Xiaomi Malaysia for warranty wise.

Xiaomi Mi A1 runs Android 7.1.2 Nougat and comes with pure Android UI onboard.

Running Android One on the Mi A1 will result in quick OS updates, bug fixes and a clean interface.

It has been also announced that the Mi A1 will be getting Android 8.0 Oreo and Android P as well.

-----

consider good lah.Snapdragon 625, 4GB RAM, and 64GB

But I hate it when it does not come with dedicated memory card slot.

Tester ( and also reseller ) won't be bothered with it.

flagship camera lor not flagship phone . this is AndroidOne

seems I shd save my money and get xiaomi a1 also lar instead of going for Redmi Note 4/4x..

Later Mi5x drop price, grab it and flash with this vanilla android.

Flashtool is ready since last year. just a matter of time before this xiaomi masuk dalam supported list

Xiaomi Mi A1 initial thoughts

http://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/reviews/xi...essions-1745820

I want Mi Max 2 leh...

I saw the word PURE ANDRIOD.

F**K YEAH XIAOMI!

so many stock android now.

Even if it's 1.2k I won't mind. Was considering to get mi6 to replace one of my 2 units of Redmi note 4 now.

Woow. Berapa lah harga tu agak2

[pricee?

Shots fired

fer real??? damn tasty price for pure android!!!!!!!!!!!!

knn cnn dns mcb lu...dont jinx can o not. pray for teh lowest!!!!!!!!!! wan sell note 4 for this sheet

Apa jadi ur leilomou a6000 ?

The only downside is 3k ish mAh battery(and dedicated sd slot). But still, a great phone on paper and money wise.

Based on image; Black, Gold, Pink

Boleh expand sd card. Ada unlimited photo storage on google also doubt you will be needing an sd card also lel

dried abalone are disgusting.
barf tier.

Hybrid slot ni. Dual sim or one sim+sd card.
Not sure on fast charge. Probably none to be on the safe side. Bonus if it is.

If they can cram in 4k battery I would definitely buy it mainly because of the stock Android.

Nice.

I feel like want to buy this.

Yet the battery still sucks.
