It is 3.5 years now that I am using 7A.
But now it's getting sluggish. Understanding it's limitations, I have used it as a work phone ( just calls, WhatsApp and emails). But since last January, it has become very slow.
But I will say it was a very good phone for the price. Compact and easy. Hard to find such phones now.
If possible I may install custom ROM on this one and buy a new phone for my work.
M4R3Ksom, 13 Feb 2023I have Redmi 7A and Redmi 9A in my possesion at the moment and after comparing them for a day ... moreIf I remember correctly, the Redmi 9A is capped to 32-bit by the operating system, and the 7A is 64-bit, so yeah. Makes a huge difference. This basically means that the 9A could have been faster than the 7A, but only if it was 64-bit.
I have Redmi 7A and Redmi 9A in my possesion at the moment and after comparing them for a day or two I can safely say that Redmi 7A is better phone in every aspect you can think of... I still cant quite understand this sorcery.. 7A is faster, has better camera, charges 10 times faster, and even runs on MIUI 12,5 while Redmi 9A is stuck with 12.0..
2/32 variant
price= good
build quality = good quite compact
design= 6/10
camera = ok it's decent when there's a lot of light (it uses an sony imx sensor so it's atleast decent)
games = bad in miui but in a custom rom it's doable
battery life= super good, i have purchased it unused and it's an old stock battery the battery life time is 14hrs for daily use & 7-9 hours with gaming
overall = 7/10

I recommend that they make a better version of 2022 with actual size of HD 5.45" but don't worry of it's size i would go for Smart, small, but built with quality. I have seen alot of people considering poor quality but big size.

Maybe you should check other apps you have installed. Tbh I've been using this phone for 3 years now and I am still happy with the overall performance.
Can't install FB, messenger, YouTube, Google and etc., and it's only Chinese no other languages.
Anyone else experience the battery % gets stuck and the device blacking out? Any fix?
Who runs double tap to wake, accessibility and app lock? I noticed phone has become sluggish and screen isnt as responsive. Typing this is also delayed. Using the 2/32 variant.

It's a beast?
I have used this little beast for 3 years. No problem occured during this period. Bought it for just 120 euros, absolute bargain. If you want a cheap and ordinary, yet reliable smartphone, you gotta pick this one for sure. Battery saving quality is astonishing for that price. Also it is so lite that I cannot feel its weight while carrying.
Bestphone for Me until I modified in global version,.Thanks
