My main needs from the A2 are:-
1. 3.5mm jack, no negotiation on this.
2. Same or better camera, audio quality and loudspeaker as it was in Mi A1.
3. MIUI version of this phone,
If these 3 requirements are met, we're looking at my next phone.

The real issue here is the fact that the battery is so tricking small. Why only 3000mah? The whole appeal of the Redmi Note series is the outstanding battery life and its a way to get people interested in your brand/phone. USB C was long over due. Headphone jack will upset some people but its not a big deal for me. Stock android is a win but no IR blaster? o_O

636 is good even if it is underclocked. This is for the battery efficiency. Overall, most people don't care about chipsets in the first place because they just want to game RPG AAA rated apps and social media. But today, people care more on specs so yeah, its good thing for people to learn speed and efficiency of SoC now than trusting a store keeper that this is way faster than that one...

I wouldn't call it hot, but for that price it is the hottest. Nothing revolutionary, nothing new, but for that money you can get Samsung with 1 GB RAM, VGA screen and 7 years old internals.
Sony X Compact is with the same chipset, it is two years old and it costs 450 USD.

We cannot comment about a phone which has not been launched yet....we just assume that since there is an Mi 6X, there will also be an Mi A2.

SD636 is more of an underclocked version of SD660, but both are very similar that there's basically little to no difference between them.
But I'd vote for SD636 as it can be put on smartphones below $300 while not really loosing that much power as compared to 660.

A 3000 mah battery will give us 4 to 4.5 hours of screen on time only
