That Xiaomi was looking at the world more to the West than to China was a known thing. That he had already squeezed the eye on the rapidly expanding Indian economy, too. We also knew that today it would hold a "Global" event with the launch of the hacktag #XiaomiGlobalLaunch and in fact it was word. We had already anticipated that it might have been a masked launch, that is, the Indian presentation of a product already shown to Chinese fans (Mi 5X or Mi 6), and indeed it was so ... but it's not entirely true! We understand why.

Announced the world Xiaomi Mi A1
"Oohhh another model !?" will be thinking many of you. Actually you are wrong, and big! Because it changes its name but essentially does not change anything from what it was launched as Xiaomi Mi 5X.
So we can say that Xiaomi has just introduced the world's first device of a series dedicated to all non-Chinese users, Xiaomi Mi A1. As mentioned, the differences in terms of specific hardware between We are A1 and the Mi 5X are not there and so we report it to you Mi 5X presentation board for those wishing to learn more.
Let's face it before you briefly show what's up technical specifications, that it Xiaomi Mi A1 he surprised (but not too much!) about a software issue whose anticipations we had already given her with this news.
Specifications: Xiaomi Mi A1 (or Mi 5X?)
- SoC Snapdragon 625
- 5,5 FULL HD Display with Corning Gorilla Glass
- Adreno GPU 506
- 4 GB of RAM memory
- 64 GB of expandable storage with microSD
- 12 Mpx Double Back Camera (26mm, f / 2.2; 50mm, f / 2.6) with 2x Optical Zoom
- Front camera from 5 Mpx
- Battery pack from 3080 mAh
- dual SIM
- FM radio
- Available colors (Black, Gold and Rose Gold)
The most enthusiastic will have already realized that the only difference, not worthy of note, is the presence of a unique internal memory cut unlike the Xiaomi Mi 5X that was launched with both 32 GB and 64 GB storage.
Advance already a question that many of you will want to do: "But has the 20 band?". Well, the answer is that we will have to deepen the matter as Xiaomi has not spoken about it. It is also true that on Xiaomi smartphones presented ad hoc to India and neighboring China, the 20 band was a trait d'union and that personally, I would expect it. We'll see if we can give you some good news.
What is the real news of Xiaomi Mi A1?
The true novelty of Xiaomi Mi A1 is software-level. In fact, the device will be the first Xiaomi device to NOT mount any OS as default. No MIUI therefore, but simply Android One 7.1.2.
The choice, as well as for purely commercial purposes, is dictated by the fact that world-class users of Xiaomi Mi A1 will thus enjoy the Google features as the cloud photo by default.
The first day of sales is expected for the next September 12th and for the first time we will see a truly global launch of a Xiaomi product. Yes, because the countries reached by this model, as anticipated, are so many ... and there are well 10 in Europe with physical stores!

I probably forgot the most thorny topic ... the price. Yes because you can imagine the price of Xiaomi Mi A1 will be affected by this worldwide diffusion and will raise the stalk with respect to Mi 5X.
The new Xiaomi device will be launched at Indian 14.999 Rs (approximately EUR 195 at the exchange rate) and of course, since we are not Italians directly, we will have to spend some extra money to import it. This is not a big difference, it is true, but you have to add 50 around to get the We are A1 instead of My 5X, is not really the best ... And what do you think? Will Google be the decisive weapon for the real launch of Xiaomi in Europe?
We look forward to knowing if you are happy with this news, so comments are open to everyone!

Phone very "without infamy and without praise", usual processor, usual ram, usual battery, usual screen. At school they would say “he has the skills but he doesn't commit himself”.
has the plus of the IR port (cool!) and of android stock
If it goes down to 180-190 by the end of the year, it could be a best buy.
As long as you are at 200, it is better to take the 4x or Mi 5x notes
It is not clear if you have an Italian language. News?

At least 630 they could put it ......
At finished 199 you might think, no more! Even though the SD625 did not impress me, they would have decided to put the 660.
I have the Mi Max 2 that mounts the 625 and I assure you that it is really good. I also have the Mi 6, so with 835 and the difference is not so marked in everyday use, far from it!
