Things that the Mi A1 can improve.

1. Multi color notification. As all of us know that it has only one color which is white. For those who chooses the gold or pink variant, the front top white frame and the white led notification color cannot be a perfect match.

2. Reading mode. I missed that yellow dim romantic light. I heard it can be adjust to grey........

3. Torch light. SOS light perhaps?

4. Dual apps in the future?

5. Battery life. 4000mAh in the future please?

6. Quick charge adapter instead of 5A. Type C is fine but QC would be better.

7. Soft vibration. I think the vibration should be more intense.

8. Slow finger print. Nougat problem?

I never heard any Mi A1 user in here complaint about the GPS lock in. GPS must be damn good leh?  brows.gif
Not on my phone..... smile.gif

Hey guys. I was a redmi 3s pro user. I do not have good impression on redmi phone (Sorry for being skeptical). I faced some bug where I can't even find the solution from MIUI forum. Below are the problem I faced last time :

1) Camera hard to focus
2) Mobile Network stuck at Edge when go to isolated area and it will never go back to H+ or 4G even you have reach the place where there having a good coverage (need to restart phone or enable location and on google maps) Yes, it is a bug!
3) Phone hang for 7-10 seconds when unplug charging cable before it can be use.

Until the born of MiA1, I started to grow interest on the pure android phone. So I wanna ask owners here, did you guys facing the same problems as I mentioned? Otherwise I might consider to buy this phone.

I had experience with problem no 1. I dont know why the camera hard to focus. When take pictures always blurry. Need to hold phone around 5-8 seconds to take proper picture. I used Redmi 1s and now redmi 3s prime but this problem cant solved. Even my old SE W580 got better picture in fast mode.

Ever tried tap to focus? I usually don't depend on the phone to focus for me to ensure I have good focus on the subject.

Yup already try. But still blurry. Seems like the phone itself slow down when take a picture. And after snap it takes around 5 seconds to click on preview picture.

"Bokeh" is just average for most cases (what do you expect for software rendering)

With f2.2 on main camera dont expect it to do well when taking bokeh picture. F2.6 on second camera make it worse to take in low light

I understand that while some ex MIUI users might not feel comfortable with this phone as it lacks many features in the REDMI series, please bear in mind this is only Android One and Xiaomi's first project with Google.

Next year there would be probably a Mi A2 and I strongly believed that more add ons will be in store but I also stressed that it should maintained as simple as possible.

I think the Mi A1 overall respond is good and also probably the cheapest for a pure stock Android smartphone.

there is no such thing as "more add ons" or because this is android one
THIS IS how pure android looks like, and its not gonna add anything more things into it, its how google released it
its not that it "lacks feature"...all the feature u need are all in there...just its not directly accessible from the front page
u need extra steps to trigger it from settings or added by the company itself separately and those are the stuff that makes the whole OS lag
those MIUI, they added shortcuts for the features thats you're talking abt

Oh thanks for your feedback

How about this A1 phone? I usually need to take close up photo for working purpose, I know handphone camera is not the ideal but at least something convenient that I can bring out. I'm using Honor 6 now and I personally think the camera snap close up photo is better than RN3 / 4.

Me too, most of the time needs to take macro photo of tiny products. But you must be careful with this phone. If you put the lens very close to the subject and the camera failed to focus (I use tap to focus), it still beep, and the picture turn out to be out of focus.

This A1 I bought for my son, I personally using the outdated Galaxy Note 3 blush.gif . When my Note 3 failed to focus, the focus area turned red and warn me with failed to focus sound.

Google Play Music is the offical Google music player on stock android. Even for mp3 songs stored in memory card. Takes some getting use to but it does the job.

I think the most important feature of this A1 is it's software.

The weakness of Xiaomi previously is its MIUI and software updates.

With this A1, you got pure android plus updates until Android P.

in my opinion xiaomi greatest is MIUI and software updates

When did the sound occurred? I regularly listen to Spotify but there's no unusual sound I heard from my headphone.

Whenever I plug in my earphone. I use Spotify too and this persists systemwide

Does it bother you and do you consider it a defect?
