Xiaomi is working really hard once again to further populate its Redmi lineup of budget Android phones, and this time we should prepare for the Redmi 5A model, with decent specs and an unbeatable price.
A leaked render of the device appeared earlier and basically reveals everything in terms of design. What’s important however is not the looks, but the specs and – obviously- the purported price of the upcoming model. In terms of specs, the Xiaomi Redmi 5A will be equipped with a 5 inch HD display and it will measure 140.44 × 70.14 × 8.35mm with a weight of just 137 grams. On the top side we expect to see an IR blaster along with a 3.5mm audio jack.
