Xiaomi Malaysia has officially introduced the Redmi A5, a feature-rich entry-level smartphone designed to deliver big upgrades in performance, camera capabilities, and design — all at an accessible price. With refreshed aesthetics, a sharper display, and improved imaging, the Redmi A5 raises the bar for everyday smartphones under RM350.
Refreshed Design with Premium Touch
The Redmi A5 features a stylish flat-frame design with a metallic-feel camera deco that adds a touch of sophistication. Available in Midnight Black, Sandy Gold, and Ocean Blue, the phone offers a refined look paired with a smudge-resistant matte finish. At just 8.26mm thick, it’s slim, lightweight, and comfortable to hold.
Bigger Display, Smoother Experience
Equipped with a 6.88-inch display supporting up to 120Hz refresh rate, the Redmi A5 offers smooth scrolling and an immersive visual experience. The screen is TÜV Rheinland-certified for eye protection and features DC dimming for reduced flicker, making it easy on the eyes during long viewing sessions. It also includes wet touch support, maintaining responsiveness even when your hands are damp.
Substantial Camera Upgrades
Redmi A5 brings flagship-level improvements to budget photography. Its 32MP AI dual rear camera includes a larger sensor that captures 18% more light than its predecessor, enhancing clarity in night shots and complex lighting conditions. The 8MP front camera features a soft-light ring using display illumination, ensuring bright and natural-looking selfies, even in low light.
Reliable Performance for Daily Demands
Powered by the UNISOC T7250 octa-core processor and equipped with up to 8GB dynamic RAM (via memory extension), the Redmi A5 offers smooth multitasking and efficient app handling. A 5200mAh battery supports more than 20 hours of video playback or over 9 hours of gaming, easily lasting through a full day.
Added Features for Everyday Convenience
