Xiaomi has launched the Redmi A5, an affordable smartphone packed with upgraded features designed to make advanced tech more accessible. With a fresh design, improved camera, and larger display, the Redmi A5 delivers a refined user experience that balances practicality and style.

The Redmi A5 features a sleek flat-frame design with a stylish metallic-look camera module and comes in three elegant colors—Midnight Black and Sandy Gold with matte, smudge-resistant finishes, and Ocean Blue with nature-inspired veined patterns. Its slim 8.26mm body offers both modern aesthetics and a comfortable grip.
Despite its compact design, the Redmi A5 boasts a large 6.88-inch display with up to 120Hz refresh rate for an immersive viewing experience. It also includes wet touch support for better usability in damp conditions, and TÜV Rheinland-certified eye protection with DC dimming to reduce eye strain during extended use.

The Redmi A5 features a major camera upgrade with a 32MP AI dual rear camera that captures sharp, vibrant photos—even in low light—thanks to a larger sensor that gathers 18% more light than its predecessor. The 8MP front camera, paired with a soft-light ring from the display, ensures well-lit, natural selfies even in dim settings.
Under the hood, the Redmi A5 runs on an octa-core UNISOC T7250 processor with up to 8GB of expandable RAM, delivering smooth performance for multitasking and demanding apps. Despite its power, it’s highly efficient, with a 5200mAh battery that supports over 20 hours of video playback and 9 hours of gaming, making it a reliable choice for all-day use.

For further added convenience, Redmi A5 also offers secure access through a side fingerprint sensor and face unlock. Plus, with the 3.5mm headphone jack, users can continue enjoying high-quality wired audio.

Redmi A5 is available starting from April 18 in three colors: Midnight Black, Sandy Gold, and Ocean Blue; with two storage variants7: 3GB+64GB priced at RM299 and 4GB+128GB priced at RM349.
