Xiaomi&amp#039s new Redmi 5A is virtually identical to the Redmi 4A in terms of specifications. It has a few cosmetic differences on the outside, but nothing about it is new or different. You get a Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 SoC, 2GB or 3GB of RAM, 16GB or 32GB of storage, a 5-inch HD screen, and 3000mAh battery. Performance is good for an entry-level phone, and while battery life is great, both the front and rear cameras are only just about acceptable. MIUI 9 has a few useful features, but there&amp#039s some bloat to deal with. Overall, low pricing is this phone&amp#039s most attractive feature.
