Xiaomi Redmi A4 Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![Dhruv Joshi]()
Verdict
The Redmi A4 is a decent option for users who want a reliable budget 5G smartphone with good software support, excellent battery life, and satisfactory performance output. However, its lack of Airtel 5G support and average camera performance are factors worth considering before making a decision.
Pros
- Premium design
- Smooth 120Hz display
- Excellent battery life
Cons
- Incompatible with Airtel 5G
- Selfie and low light performance could be better
- Pre-installed apps
5G connectivity
+
The Redmi A4 5G is positioned as one of the most affordable 5G phones in India, and rightfully so. However, there's one particular issue with its 5G support. The device does not support NSA (non-standalone) 5G bands, which are used in Airtel's 5G network. That means the phone will not offer 5G internet when used with an Airtel SIM card. The brand also mentions this limitation on the phone's retail box, as you can see in the image above. On the other hand, Jio users can reliably enjoy high-speed cellular internet on this device.

Design and display
+
The Redmi A4 5G's design feels nostalgic, taking me back to the Redmi Note 7, which launched in 2018—a phone I still use as a secondary device. It features the same waterdrop notch display with slightly thick bottom bezels, but the screen is now larger, as is the phone itself. Despite this, the device feels surprisingly premium for its price, thanks to its glass-like rear panel and the soft pastel "Sparkle Purple" colour, which I received for review.

Cameras
+
The Redmi A4 features a 50MP primary camera paired with an auxiliary lens and a 5MP front camera. The device delivers satisfactory daylight shots for its price, but in low-light conditions, the images tend to be soft, even with night mode enabled. The selfie camera performs reasonably well but is limited by its small sensor, often struggling to capture facial details and producing images with a fair amount of noise. Let's see how it compares against its key competitors below.

Performance and software
+
The new Snapdragon 4s Gen 2 lies at the core of the Redmi A4 5G and comes with 4GB of LPDDR4X RAM and up to 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage, further expandable with a MicroSD card. The chipset is based on a 4nm processor and delivers decent performance for its price bracket, although its synthetic benchmark numbers fall slightly short compared to its competitors like the Tecno Spark 30C and the itel Color Pro.

Battery
+
The Redmi A4 5G comes with a 5,160mAh battery with 18W fast charging support. The brand also gives you a 33W charger in the retail box, unlike the Tecno Spark 30C. The battery had an excellent score on the PCMark battery benchmark test, and its resilience is truly commendable. The device easily lasts for an entire day even with high usage levels, which should appeal to many battery-focused customers.
