Xiaomi Mi A1 Global Version (International) - geni.us/0YLBb
The Xiaomi Mi A1 is a breath of fresh air. A budget Android device with a stock Android experience. The Mi A1 isn't the flashiest smartphone in the world but it delivers a software experience in the same realm as my Google Pixel 2 XL and for far less money. The Xiaomi Mi A1 would be my current smartphone of choice if I only had $200 to spend.

The best Xiaomi smartphone for today. Waiting for Mi A2 (or whatever it will be called) with 18:9 display, thin bezels and stock Android
A1=Android one so it won't be called A2 if there even is a second one
Should I buy the Mi A1 or the Redmi 5 Plus?
Mi A1 or redmi note 5 pro.
Comkio If u r obsessed with dat 18:9 ratio than go for redmi 5 plus..but if u like stock android.... fluid os..type c..More camera functions..than go for Mi A1
I personally think the Mi Mix 2 takes the cake, but I may pick this up,.
Watching this on my MiA1.
Still going strong, even after 3 years and 3 months later💕
Same , got it for 100$ when it was like few months old so
This is my phone im so proud of my decisions and this the best phone
Watching from Mi A1 4/64GB in 2020 still satisfying me.
How many of u Watching this on ur MiA1?
14000 inr
me
Me

Not me
He should check Redmi note 5 pro now. Mi a1 was launched last year
Today Tech No stock android no deal
Android One was just launched this year tho
Juan Carballo nope it was released last year
Juan Carballo Android one has been around for developing countries for many years, it just began in US with Moto X4
Today Tech Redmi note 5 pro sucks
"Having the back button on the WRONG side, on SAMSUNG side..."

Making a comment after using it for 3 years .. Best ever phone i purchased ❤️
It was popular in India.
It's almost 8 month older mobile.
you must check out xiomi redmi note 5 pro.
Ayush Mishra no stock android and shitty chinese skin with zero design? No thanks I'll stick with my more pretty MI A1
Ayush Mishra and Malaysia to
its the next miro max the next good thing for the pice after 2 or 3 years no one talks about mi and some other company comes in the budget market
If you don't like The UI, Xiaomi allows you to install any custom rom from what I've heard
Exactly
I'm watching from my Mi a1 😈💯
Me too 😎😎
Awesome video Unbox Therapy! Just like all your others :) well done!
I'm watching this on my Mi a1 in 2020

🔥🔥🔥🔥You should get Redmi Note 5 pro. It comes with 6 inch Full HD+ display, Snapdragon 636, Dual cameras with EIS, 4000 mAh battery, 20MP selfie camera. And price, just $215.🔥🔥🔥🔥
DanzFox Even 4000 mAh is enough. You can check it on company's official website.
He needs to test the xiaomi phones
Samarjot Singh the pro version is $215!? I thought it was 299!
I am a Xiaomi redmi note 5 pro user😊
But its a miui device... most of the customers don't buy the phone if it has huge skin on it (except india lol)
Finally xiaomi! 👊👊👊
Thanks, Lew and crew. Bought it the week this video came out, been using it ever since. No complaints.
bought this in sep 2017
still running smoothly
*Watching* *from* my *Mi* *a1* 😋😊💪

Xiaomi always been the cheap brand with all the good specs...
_if you don't know, now you know._
But shit UI
lalanapalala1 MI A1 has pure android view
And if you dont't know now you know nigga
Wait for few mnths,RN5 prowill get pure android (custom os).
Washim Ali It already has pure Android
Been using this from October last year. Excellent. Absolutely satisfied. Brilliant performance. Good camera. Gets a security patch every month. Running Android 8.0 as of now with April Security Patch. Great at gaming. Looks good. Very decent battery. Has 32 bit DAC inside headphone jack, one of the best sound qualities you can get through headphone jack in a smartphone. Real champ 👍🏻✌🏻
Quick question does this allow us carriers
how long does it last?
@@AMV_KINGDOM_mv yaap
@@spurkey8314 around 5-9 hrs sot based on your usage and network
After latest update 9.1 pie . The security of the fingerprint is not working all phone content can be accessed by opening the emergency number button ! Any advice how to fix this please
Great phone reviews I'm definitely researching my next phone purchase here before making phone purchase. Thanks Unbox Therapy!
I have been using flagship devices since the era of the S3 and Nexus S. This time I said "Fcuk it!" and got this Mi A1 instead. I am very happy with my choice. The camera is the most noticeable you-are-not-using-a-flagship part, but it still was able to produceo on par photos with my wife's S6 which is a flagship from only 3 years ago.
"Good phones are getting cheap and cheap phones are getting good." MKBHD :)
Except if you use Apple, then phones (not just the good ones) can only get costly.
Technology as time passes gets cheaper. otherwise, the cost of the iPhone 6 would be the same as the iPhone 8. Therefore, nobody would get the 6.
Yordan Uzunov I sold the device
Yordan Uzunov I sold the device because it was so laggy,and also the build quality is straight up copy of iPhone 7,worst cameras,just trash
Jouz that's just what I experienced,using that device
Finally he is unboxing mi a1
I watch all your reviews (subscribed!!) And i love your no nonsense style. I also agree you can't beat stock android. Too many smart phone companies put their own UI in and totally spoil otherwise brilliant phones. Keep up the good work! 👍
Thanks for doing these price point phone reviews. Similar reviews sold me on Axon 7 b/c Dolby Atmos and front facing speakers. Keep up the great work.
Back button on da samsung side = life
It become old now..
Area of Interest Yeah!!
Area of Interest go to grammar class first...
Agree, and Xiaomi should release Mi A2 with the same price some upgrades like having a more beautiful and unique design.
Your name is the reason for him.........
A1 stands for Project Android one. It is not a series name
Watching this video via Mi A1
Anurag Kevat is it fast / as good as pixel 2
same
Anurag Kevat me too
Me2
Can't be compared to pixel. But is fast enough to be compared with Nokia 6/7 and other significantly costlier phone. And you get regular security updates from Google.
I love your reviews. You speak clearly and easily. Everything is said in order without jumping all around. Easy to follow. Thanks again for your review.
Watching this on my miA1 😁

Hey there same here
Shivam Mhaskar Same
my first android phone was nexus 6p and the switch from iphone to that phone was amazing. Really something about "stock android" that makes a difference.
Thank you! Great detail. 👏🏽👏🏽
Looks like a good back up phone to have on standby
One of the most common reason is that because of battery life being depleted so fast on inconvenient situations, they don't have a place to charge their phone. And now with new phones, you can't remove the battery anymore and swap another one like in the outdated models like the Samsung Galaxy S5 or Galaxy Note 4. So should this happen, users will take their sim card out and install it in the back up phone while their primary one is dead or until they find a spot to charge it.
*BTW watching on my mi a1*
saad khan me too
saad khan Me too.. ☺
Same here
Ditto
Same.
Thank you Lou 😎 watching these new vids on my new phone woo!
Hi lewis , another great video as always. I strongly sugest you do the Ubiquiti AmpliFi Hd for your next unboxing, you will not regret it
So, did the Oreo upgrade is safe in US? In Indonesia due to the bug xiaomi pending the update so some people stuck with Nougat
Why get this when I can get 40 $5 phones?
hahahha LOL
UnPhayzable actually you can get 45 of it
UnPhayzable sad thing though that fuck*** 5$ phone isn't real. Google it
Buy the iphone x
UnPhayzable cause you can't carry 40 phones in your pocket.
Watching this on MiA1, still it's rocking. 🔥🔥
I love the clean Android experience as well. Certainly gonna get this one!
Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 pro is also priced similarly but it is a better choice as it has a better display, camera, and performance. Only Stock Android is missing.
i would buy in a heartbeat if it had a bezelless display. i just can't give that feature up at this point. but TYPE C USB, dual cam, and pure android are really good features!!!
Finally... i’ve been waiting for this
Would you do like a one week test, where you make this phone your daily driver? I would love a closer interview and comparison to a flagship!
Keep doing budget unboxing
You're late. It's redmi note 5 pro playing now.
Dipak Gupta this is unboxing video bro....
Dipak Gupta no
You're slow. Note 5 Pro lacks stock android which is a deal breaker for a lot of people. Maybe not so much to the usual Indian guy, but to anyone who knows how to truly use an android device? If one had a choice between these 2, the latter would pick A1.
I think you didn't understood the video. It's about stock Android in something that actually works in USA.
The reason he unboxed A1 is because of Pure Android. MIUI is just not up to the mark.
This has quickly become one of my favorite channels
Had it for a very long time. Loved it
Who is watching this from Mi A1?? I love my phone
Aryan TS me
This phone Has fake second camera
Wtf? I use this phone and it took excellent photos in day time conditions with portrait mode, so don't say things you don't know
Its sucks
Meeee
Yo... Low key this looks good... I have a mate 10 lite but this looks good
*Watching this on my Mi A1*
After 17 months, this phone is still super snappy. It is currently on Android 9, 11/2019 Security Patch. Decent camera, sound quality and power. Clean software. Still worth it under $200 price point at the moment.
Love your videos!
If you like this phone make a review on the Huawei Honor 7x please
This is my favorite phone
id rather not spend 500$+ for a gimmick phone, thank you very much, apple fanboy
You should've made this video with the red one ;) . It's beautiful !!!!
It’s about time you review this phone! Haha!
I said to him to test this phone, because is is so much for this price. Watching this on my Mi A1
No Complains about the screen as it launched a year ago in India and 18:9 wasn't available in the budget segment then.
Rooting this phone and adding the google camera makes it really amazing.
Still using mi 1 in 2021🔥🔥🔥.....and it's really amazing to see that around 500$ phone can't take potrait images like this one does.
Watching this video on mi a1 😂
Paras Rana me too
Paras Rana me 2
Rn5 pro ruined it😁
Gaurav Tiwari mi a1 is better ❤️
Gaurav Tiwari but it does not have stock os
Finally! One of the best budget phones, especially because of Android One
Love my mi a1, props for Xiaomi, for switching me from lg's g line to this.
You got my like on this one. Nicely done. $200 isn't entry level everywhere.
Checkout Redmi Note 5 Pro!
If you can survive through the *Flash Sales* 😂.
Kamesh Parashar nice one 😂😂😂😂
My LETV LeEco le 2, is an amazing quality Chinese phone. I've had it for coming up to 1 year and it was £120. It's as quick as an iPhone 8 (yes I've compared it) and the finger print scanner is so quick. Do I recommend checking these Chinese phones out? YES!
I bought it today and setup up. Moving from an S7 to this device. I love it ! WHY YOU DID NOT MAKE THIS VIDEO BEFORE !!!!!
Ata Lipsos how is the phone as of now?
Still watching this with my MI A1. Its has been more than 3 years since i had this phone , but still very smooth and battery is still good .
Headphone "Jack"
Is one of the best budget smartphone and although the camera is not a the level of the pixel 2xl it's very good it's has a good portrait mode and there is a version of 64gb for 230 dollars that is the one I recommend. The camera has slow motion video and 4k 30fps, the only feature I really missed is optical stabilization, I now it's not a smartphone with no vessels or is not design is very original (iphone7) but it's the smartphone which has a little bit of all and there isn't something where it have lots of fails and for the the price it has it blows out other brands with similar "budget" phones.(Sorry if my English is not the best, I'am from Europe...)
I got it since October and it is awesome! It is still snappy. There camera is not the best, but after you get used to it you can make decent pictures: it takes some effort and a steady hand.
It would be cool to see you reviewing Nokia's new Android One phones coming this spring! They come so many price points to choose from while offering the Android One experience. So as a video it would be interesting to compare how the budget models compare to the more flagship-tier models (And why not to other brands at similar price points, also). Keep preaching, Lou!
I need to upgrade my mobile. Now iam using s4 mini and it really sucks. I need a mid range phone. Which phone should i buy?
sami .k RN5 Pro
Redmi 5 Plus (4GB/64GB)
Huawei p20 lite, moto x4, redmi note 5 pro.
Xiaomi mi a2 is the best or mi a2 lite because it is cheaper
iPhone Xs
Please review redmi note 5 pro
It's big bro😊😚
You show us a lot of budget phones Lew, and I’m shopping on a budget so I want to thank you for that, but I also need a phone that can do android pay. Do these have that feature or can you only get that in some of the premium phones?
I'm watching this on my Mi Max 2 😄
You should make a video on this phone too!
It has amazing specs at this price point
NICE CONTENT GOOD………
Lou, I have this exact phone in black and I can say I'm extremely pleased with it. It gets the job done, period. Decent photos, good battery, and since I don't use it in the office too much the battery lasts me 2 days. Xiaomi did one hell of a job.
Good unbox, not all people want or can have the High gamma devices, its good, that you show devices for all kind in range of choices
Please do a unboxing of Mi Redmi Note 5 Pro...
proud to be a owner of MI A1 😎
Same here
same here

Anyone waiting for Mi A2
My Nokia N-Gage is better.
Awesome Video Lew
September 2018, watching on my Gold Mi A1. Happy life. ✌️
Do Unboxing Redmi Note 5 pro so your opinion about phone.
Memon Rauf its 10 M subscriber channel kid ? And Don't say that Plz do a unboxing of underwear 😒

Can't decide between Moto g5s XT1794 , Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus global version and Xiaomi Mi A1 Global Version?
is there any bug with the new update the Oreo version? because i read some comments the big problem on the device is the battery draining.. tell us how to fix the bugs for new update.. thanks
You should try Xiaomi redmi note 5 pro it is dope❤️❤️
That moment when you realise that your phone made it to one of the greatest Tech channels😮😍 in the world of CZcams
Wish he did more Xiaomi phones ☹️
Jithin Jose I subscribe to your channel
Jithin Jose not that big of an accomplishment considering he reviews a wide amount of phones....
Nice review, Lew.
Looking at this phone. The Amazon link says "no warranty". Is that common? Would you buy it anyway?
Boy oh boy ur late 😣
You forgot to mention the plus points of having a IR blaster on a phone. These days almost no-one gives you that feature on a $200 device.
Darshan Patil Yeah. I was surprised it has an IR blaster. its a rare feature in phones nowadays. Lol
Not with Xiaomi it isn't 😂
kawaiikillers the s8 and s9 doesn't have it, neither does the iPhone 2g - the X, It used to be common, but now -not so much. My s6 has it though
Oh well, I'll just buy one on ebay...
Lu u should try out audio through the headphone jack on mi A1. I am damm sure that u will love it.
