Redmi A7, Redmi A7 Pro launched in India: 5 things to know about latest entry-level smartphones
Gadgets Now | April 22, 2026 2:39 AM CST
Massive Displays with "Wet Touch" Tech
Both phones feature expansive screens—6.88 inches for the A7 and 6.9 inches for the A7 Pro. The Pro model stands out with a 120Hz refresh rate for ultra-smooth scrolling. Notably, Xiaomi has included "wet touch" technology, which allows the screen to remain responsive even if your fingers or the display are damp.
Smart Battery with Reverse Charging
The series is built for long-term reliability. While they come with a 15W charger in the box, they also feature a unique 7.5W wired reverse charging capability. This essentially turns your phone into a mini power bank, allowing you to top up accessories like wireless earbuds or a friend's phone in a pinch.
Integrated Google AI Features
In a big move for the accessible segment, the Redmi A7 Pro comes integrated with advanced Google AI tools. Users will have access to Google Gemini for smart assistance and Circle to Search, allowing you to identify anything on your screen simply by circling it—a feature previously reserved for much more expensive flagships.
High-End Durability and Protection
Despite being entry-level devices, Xiaomi hasn't skimped on build quality. The phones carry an IP52 rating, providing protection against dust and light water splashes. For eye safety, the displays come with triple TÜV Rheinland certifications, designed to reduce eye strain during long hours of use.
Practical Storage and Connectivity
The series is designed for users who need space. Along with the onboard 64GB storage, there is a dedicated microSD card slot that supports expansion up to 2TB. Unlike many modern flagships, these devices retain the 3.5mm headphone jack and include a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for quick, secure access.
