Xiaomi silently launches Redmi A3X, a less powerful Redmi A3, for less than Rs 7,000

Xiaomi has silently launched a new Redmi phone in India. The phone in question, called the Redmi A3X, is an entry-level offering. It’s essentially a less powerful—and by extension, more affordable—Redmi A3. The Redmi A3 was launched in India in February.

The Redmi A3X boasts of the same “halo” design as the Redmi A3 with a rounded camera assembly somewhat reminiscent of Xiaomi’s pricier ultra-flagship phones.
