“In some areas, the Xiaomi Mi A3 is better than its predecessor. But Xiaomi should quickly fix the stuttering WLAN with an update.”

“The Mi A3 is a pretty solid offering that offers a lot for its price. Right from the stellar hardware to the simplistic vanilla Android, the phone easily stands out amongst the crowd. It’s got a good set of cameras, stupendous battery life, great software and stunning build quality. The return of the 3.5mm jack is also highly appreciated. But on the other end of the spectrum lies its average gaming performance, poor fingerprint scanner and a lower-resolution display.”

“The Xiaomi Mi A3 is a good choice for an affordable phone, especially if the camera is your priority and you want regular software updates. But if you like watching videos, you could look elsewhere because the screen isn’t up to the highest standards.”

“The Xiaomi Mi A3 is a safe bet — a phone that does most things well, though nothing exceptionally. Its display and fingerprint scanner leave a lot to be desired, but its software and battery life are compelling.”
