Any phone with Gorilla Glass 3 and above can do this. Tempered glass is overrated actually. You don't need them anymore.

A quick day one summary.
Mi A1 goals is trying to attract those who were staying away
from the Xiaomi ecosystem (MIUI).
Having stock Android over MIUI is definitely something
that will makes it a very reliable smartphone.

In low light(2X optical zoom) just too much noise.
Hope can improve this with software updates.
Other than this, good camera that is capable of taking great shots.

Battery life is strong, but not the best in this price bracket.
The back is a bit  slippery, better buy some kind of skin or cover
for this phone.

The metal body and overall finish are superb and that makes it look premium.
Side by side next with the iphone 7 plus, the build quality is almost as good.

The display and overall performance are good.
The fingerprint reader is located at the back, and it works very well.

Expanded(max) using a Sandisk 128GB microSD card(as external)
on the second SIM slot.Supported.No problem.(very good
decision from Xiaomi)
But you cannot install apps on SD card.

AGAIN IT IS REALLY ABOUT THE SOFTWARE.
The most important about this phone is Android Nougat without any
skinning atop it.

*This are for those using Nougat for the first time.
Mi A1 is tall at 155.4 mm in length,comes handy when
Nougat features on the device include split-screen multitasking that
allows users to work on two apps simultaneously(By holding on the "recent
apps")on the bottom left.

Mi A1 isn’t groundbreaking, just worth the money.Its a steal.
It is just being the “Pixel on a budget”.
I think Mi A1 is probably the best looking smartphone Xiaomi
has ever built in "this price segment".

Can anyone help to check this phone is able to take photo in RAW format?
Most likely it is possible as it is running pure Android version.

Camera App is from Xiaomi. No RAW.
