Key Highlights of Xiaomi Mi A1:

Xiaomi talked a lot about its camera at the launch event In terms of the spec sheet, the 26mm wide-angle lens on board the Mi 5A comes with a f/2.2 aperture while the 50mm telephoto lens boasts of a f/2.6 aperture.

This dual camera system offers 2X optical zoom and 10X digital zoom and it should technically result in clearer distant shots and professional bokeh effects in portraits. The system is further aided with phase detection auto-focus but there is no optical image stabilization.

The Xiaomi Mi A1 runs a near 100 per cent version of stock Android, the camera app is still hallmarked to Xiaomi According to Xiaomi, this is because the stock Google Camera interface doesn’t go well with a dual-lens setup on the software front.

Xiaomi has also included a dedicated headphone amplifier to better music listening experience. 10V smart PA for high-quality audio.

Google promises to push faster operating system updates. It will be one of the 1st devices that will receive Android P(9.0)
