The Xiaomi Mi A3 is the latest smartphone the Chinese manufacturer has unveiled. The phone was unveiled a couple of days ago and should be available in retail stores in Europe by the end of the month.
The Mi A3 is the successor to the Mi A2 from last year. It comes with some interesting specs and even though its price in Kenya is yet to be unveiled, we expect it to be available in retail stores for Ksh 25,000 or right around there. This puts it in direct competition with the Huawei Y9 Prime 2019, Huawei P30 Lite, OPPO F11 and many more.
If you have the Mi A2, the Mi A3 is not a big upgrade for you. There are some key changes between these two phones but you will not find those in the display or the processor. This is tragic to be honest as I would have hoped for another processor and display and I would have been fine if they kept all the other specs intact. Anyway, below are some of the key specifications of the Xiaomi Mi A3.
