Last month, Xiaomi launched its new Android One smartphone in the European market — Xiaomi Mi A3. The phone is a re-branded Android One version of the Mi CC9e smartphone that was recently launched in China.
The company has been teasing the launch of Xiaomi Mi A3 Android One smartphone for the Indian market since quite some time. We recently reported that the phone could get launched in India on 23rd August. Now, it has been confirmed that the Xiaomi Mi A3 will launch in India on 21st August.
Along with confirming the launch date of the smartphone in the Indian market, it has also been revealed that the Mi A3 will be available for purchase exclusively through Amazon India.
Coming to the specifications, the Xiaomi Mi A3 features a 6-inch HD+ AMOLED display with 1520 x 720 pixels screen resolution. Under the hood, the phone is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 SoC with 4GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of native storage.
