Update: Xiaomi India has confirmed that the Mi A3 will launch in India on August 21.

Xiaomi’s extensive lineup of budget smartphones is soon going to get a new member with the Mi A3. This Android One device could launch in India as soon as August 21.

In 2017, Xiaomi surprised the world by unveiling a smartphone that ran on stock Android instead of MiUI. Come 2019, we have the all-new Mi A3 ready to make its way to India. Smartprix reports that the Indian launch will take place on August 21. For the uninitiated, the Mi A3 is a rebranded Mi CC9e that was unveiled in China recently.

 Xiaomi Mi A3 specifications 

Since the device is already launched in China and a few European markets, we already know most of what to expect from this device. Unless Xiaomi India decides to change a few specifications, the Mi A3 will be powered by the octa-core Snapdragon 665 with 4GB of RAM. 

Aesthetically, the Mi A3 has a gradient glass back in colours such as white and blue with the triple camera module. On the front, we get a 6-inch Super AMOLED display with an HD+ resolution and a dot notch for the front camera. The display is covered by Gorilla Glass 5 and has an in-display fingerprint scanner too.

The triple camera setup on the rear consists of a 48MP f/1.8 primary camera, an 8MP ultrawide camera and a 2MP depth sensor. The Mi A3 can record 4K video at 30fps. The front camera is a 32MP shooter.

The battery is rated at 4,050mAh and supports QC 3.0 over USB Type-C. The Mi A3 also has a 3.5mm headphone jack.
