Xiaomi has added another budget-friendly contender to its lineup with the Redmi A7 Pro. The phone is now available, bringing a large display, long-lasting battery, and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate to make everyday tasks feel snappy without breaking the bank.
Design and Display
The Redmi A7 Pro has a solid build, measuring 171.6 x 79.5 x 8.2 mm and weighing 208 grams. It also comes with dust and splash resistance, which is a nice touch at this price point. The front is dominated by a 6.9-inch IPS LCD panel with a 720 x 1600 resolution and a 20:9 aspect ratio, offering a comfortable ~84.3% screen-to-body ratio. The display supports a 120Hz refresh rate and peaks at 800 nits brightness (HBM), so scrolling and casual gaming feel smooth, and outdoor visibility is decent.
Performance
Under the hood, the Redmi A7 Pro runs on the Unisoc T7250 chipset built on a 12nm process. Its octa-core CPU has 2×1.8 GHz Cortex-A75 and 6×1.6 GHz Cortex-A55 cores, paired with a Mali-G57 MP1 GPU. While this won’t rival flagship phones, it’s more than capable of handling daily tasks, browsing, and light gaming.
The phone comes in two storage options: 64GB with 4GB RAM and 128GB with 4GB RAM, with UFS 2.2 storage for faster app launches. There’s also a dedicated microSD slot for storage expansion. It runs Android 16 with Xiaomi’s HyperOS 3, offering a smooth and intuitive software experience.
Cameras
The Redmi A7 Pro features a single 13MP rear camera with f/2.2 aperture, LED flash, and HDR support. It can record videos at 1080p@30fps. On the front, there’s an 8MP wide-angle selfie camera with HDR support, also capable of 1080p video. While the camera setup is basic, it’s adequate for casual photography and video calls.
Battery and Charging
One of the key highlights is the 6,000mAh battery, which promises more than a full day of usage even with heavy browsing or video streaming. It supports 15W wired charging to quickly top up the phone when needed.
Connectivity and Features
The Redmi A7 Pro covers all the essentials: dual SIM support, Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, GALILEO, GLONASS, BDS, and QZSS for positioning. There’s no NFC, but you get a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, accelerometer, compass, and virtual proximity sensing. Other features include a 3.5mm headphone jack, FM radio, and USB Type-C 2.0 with OTG.
Price and Availability
The Redmi A7 Pro starts at $135.99 (around ₹11,000) and goes up depending on the storage variant. It’s available in Black, Mist Blue, Palm Green, and Sunset Orange.
