Chinese smartphone brand Xiaomi launched the Mi A2 in India back in August last year. The smartphone was launched with a price tag of ₹16,999, and it got a price cut in the country later in November. Well now, the Mi A2 has received yet another price cut in India making it cheaper.
Xiaomi has announced a permanent price cut for both the 4 GB RAM and 6 GB RAM variants in India. The 4 GB RAM variant now costs ₹13,999 whereas the 6 GB RAM variant now costs ₹15,999. It’s worth noting that the 4 GB RAM variant was launched in India with a price tag of ₹16,999 and its price was later reduced to ₹15,999. The 6 GB RAM variant, on the other hand, was launched at ₹19,999 and had its price dropped to ₹18,999 later on.
This price cut comes as Xiaomi celebrates its fifth anniversary in India, and, the Mi A2 can be purchased at reduced prices through online and offline stores across the country.
“We have five exciting surprises for the week for our Mi Fans, in line with celebrating our fifth year in India. For the first surprise, we are thrilled to share that our Mi A2 will see a permanent price drop effective today from 12pm onwards across all our sales platforms,” said Xiaomi.
For those who need a refresher, the Mi A2 is a mid-ranger which is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 660 SoC. Its 4 GB RAM variant comes with 64 GB of internal storage whereas the 6 GB RAM variant comes with 128 GB of internal storage. There’s also a 32 GB storage variant which wasn’t launched in India.
The Mi A2 sports a 5.99-inch Full-HD+ display, and, being an Android One smartphone, it runs a stock version of Android and comes with a promise of two years of Android version updates and three years of security updates.
The smartphone also rocks dual cameras – 12 MP and 20 MP – at the back and 20 MP single camera on the front. However, it doesn’t come with a microSD card slot and 3.5 mm headphone jack which could be a deal-breaker for many.
