The Redmi A4 5G, one of India's most affordable 5G smartphones, is powered by the Snapdragon 4s Gen 2 chipset. A key limitation is its exclusive compatibility with Jio's 5G network due to its reliance on Standalone (SA) 5G architecture.
Why no Airtel 5G?
The Redmi A4 5G only supports SA 5G, unlike Airtel's current Non-Standalone (NSA) infrastructure. While Airtel plans to launch SA 5G, it's not yet widely available. This limits the Redmi A4 5G's 5G functionality to Jio users. For more on 5G technology, see Realme GT Neo7's massive battery.
Redmi A4 5G Features
- 6.88-inch HD+ LCD with 120Hz refresh rate
- 5,160mAh battery with 18W fast charging
- 4GB/64GB or 4GB/128GB storage options
The phone is available from November 27th via Amazon, Mi.com, and offline stores. This budget-friendly device offers a good entry point to 5G, provided you're on Jio's network.
