Noman Cyclewala thank you bro
I have waited these many these hoping for updates but bad luck bro
Sravan Reddy just enjoy your phone don't worry about updates. i guess it doesn't have bugs right
great review.. But need more clarity on the front facing camera. Does it works well ???
Ranjit Sir, is there any major network issue on this phone?Should I go for this phone?
8:58 his electrcity bill is 2060/-😌
Jaymin Shah

Mojo jojo tera phone 1080p support krta hai to 4K kaise dikha dega..😂😂😋😋
The only thing I hate in MI A1 is it's front camera it's just 5mp
Using this phone since 4 years now. Running strong
Hello ranjit sir. I want to ask you about the front facing cameras.How was it ? Is this is doing great job in front of camera centric smart phones.
Last three videos back to back for mi A1 hit like for sir geeky
Watching this on the Mi A1.
Good phone, I must say
I can also buy mi A1 from Xiaomi.com or not ?
You can buy from mi store
Yes
+gamer guy is price same ?
Yes the price is same
Dear Ranjit you just saved my day I thought about buying a Fiio music player as I hear a lot of music across different music genres in my phone but never felt like my friends iPod. This is the best phone for music lovers. I heard Hans Zimmer's background score on my car via AUX it just blew my mind. I have a stock music player in my car so never felt so good about it till I plugged this phone. All my quality headphone (JAYS 3, SENNHEISER 180, 449) have come to life. Your review saved 14K of my money as I was going to by both Moto G5+ and FiioX3 Good job keep it up.
i've been using this phone for the past 3-4 years and the fact that now I have to part away with this one is to sad. Mostly because i feelno phone even to this day compares to this one in this price range, i mean ofcourse it's not perfect but it's amazing. And I agree with the headphone jack, i use AT headphones it's quite bulky but the audio experience was just amazing.
I love the in hand experience this phone gave because of it's metal back. Midrange and even few flagships today have those shitty plastic shiny back which feels horrible to use (a mojor reason for not shifting from this one even after breaking it for a hundred times i prefer getting it repaired).
Now it's high time i get a new one and i've been soo confused, i was checking out sir's videos and thought i should look at mia1 reviews to see how accurate it is. I must say I am impressed.
Sir, please upload motog5s+ review before 19 because on 19 again the sale of mi A1 will start.
I bought the g5s plus and I'm really loving it. ☺️
Laxman Anand Bhai acha Hai phone..?
Post some sample shots
But you will hate Moto in future when g5s plus won't get Android p. Happened with me once.
Aman Sharma Android ain't a big issue here at least for me
Laxman Anand brother then it's a good phone for you.
Full in-depth comparison between moto G5S plus vs xiaomi MI A1...bahut confusion hai isme..aur kisko kisko ye comparison dekhna hai..
Aniket Singh go for moto
Pravin Sutar yes it is good
I m using it btw
'm currently rocking a Redmi Pro 128GB variant and planning to move into the Mi A1 after seeing the video, would you call that an upgrade or am I doing a downgrade in a sense?? thanks...
Hi! Should I buy a mi a1 right now or wait for a newer model if it’s coming soon?
already ordered MI A1
Kiratpal Singh Congo same here
ThankS
congo...!! same here...
Xiaomi hyped the camera of this device and projecting it as the best mid range smartphone considering camera. But the reality lies behind the focal length of lens used in primary camera setup. Wide vision lens has aperture f/2.2 and telephoto lens has aperture f/2.6.This is the main reason the camera struggles in low and artificial lighting conditions. Only portrait mode that too in natural lighting is good. So guys ,please don't just get over-happy on this device. Even my friends say that mi a1 having dslr like set-up. It is like day-dreaming.Consider all the pros and cons and then decide.
Which phone I must buy Ranjit sir mia1 or honor 9 lite
Which do you think is the better choice? should I buy the Mi5 or this Mi A1?
Does this have a better built quality and how is the in hand feel experience??
Sir Android authority has used your video source
Dheeraj Kulkarni look at 0:18 they mentioned source is Geekyranjit for people like you
Yes
Ranjit sir c4etech said totally apposite about camera and he also said camera performance is better than Moto g5s so sir please compare both device closley
Sir and if you're budget is below 20000 thousand so what will you buy in terms of brand value and future proof which is more important
Please reply
Please
I was literally searching for comment like because I too think
get mi5 instead
@Geekyranjit
Sir when can we have a full review of Moto g5s plus. Have been waiting for your review then would bug the phone kindly reply
@karan khemchandani
Thanks a lot for Ur response 1 thing I know for sure is that moto g5s plus has image stabilizer but not during 4k video. My budget is around that much only. Is there any phone you would recommend
Fahad Farooq
Thank u fahad. I might look at buying moto only because in my family there were 3 users using xiaomi but after sometime it started hanging and moreover with xiaomi the service centre charges a bomb for everything. Any idea how is moto g5s plus otherwise
Karan khemchandani moto has eis i am using it since 5 days and video quality is awesome
Namrata Gandhi u should buy moto g5splus .. u will feel glad to use it trust me i am using it .. 8mp front cam + front flash + nfc + fast charge +EIS+ moto customer service makes it better than a1 .. and the phones with front fingerprint sensor looks more premium..
Aditya Goswami thank u so much aditya. Just a question I had heard it has occasional app crash is it true?
Nice video sir. As the sar value is 1.26 i.e, very high. Is it safe to use ?
Hi Ranjeet, are you getting network fluctuation issue while using 4g data?
Please compare camera between MI A1 and moto G5 S Plus
You might get copyright from *Technical Guruji* 😂😂😂
Hey ranjit when will you unbox apple pencil
hahahahaha
Apple Condom is out
Hi Ranjit, first of all, thanks for the review. Your reviews are so professional covering all aspects which I really like. I am shooting this question as I plan to buy Mi A1. As the Android O for Mi A1 seems rolled out, do you still feel the camera of the Mi A1 still face issues in low light or does it do any better?
As you said the headphone jack output is excellent, how is the audio via Bluetooth headphones (over the ear)?
Also, is the camera glass scratch proof or its gets damaged like that of the moto g4 plus?
Ranjit sir please make a dedicated video of your garden on roof ..plz sir plz plzz....make a video
16:35 😁😁
Con starts at 12:51
sir please tell me its worthy for buying & tell me video stabilisation will fix in a new update
Sir i think it's not a Pixel launcher, it's aosp based launcher3 similar to pixel launcher.
Google supporting xiomi
I think it might be thr other way round. Its in Googles best interests.
Ooo
zahid gite lol Google doesn't need the support of Xiaomi
Money...

I am really confused between MI A1 , RedMI Note 4 and Moto G5s Plus
Please tell me which one to choose ?@Geekyranjit Sir

trusted UA-camr

Coming soon finished review, need to shoot it I will try to post it later this week.
Geekyranjit waiting for your review
Nation wants 2 know😂
So, is it possible for companies to enable EIS through a software update?
Logangsta 6921
I was wondering the same thing....Can the lack of EIS for 1080p/4K video in the Xiaomi Mi A1 be taken care off in future software updates?
Logangsta 6921 one plus 5 received the very same update you described
Chen Ming Liang Then I sure do hope Xiaomi does the same
Yes
use google photos
Sir please tell me that how much time it takes to full charge & are both sim LTE supported ?
which is the best phone in the 16k range? I want a phone which I can use for excessive gaming , the screen quality and the camera should be better.. Please suggest.

krishna gogoi great :)
Moto g5s plus was released first so you sud post Moto G5s plus Reveiw first but you are Posting A1 review first,so I think xiaomi has told you to to post full review B4 Moto g5s plus bcoz generally you give review after 9 to 10 days.no offence sir I watch your every video but you are not posting full review of moto g5s plus review which you sud post first
Sanket surolia he made the review because more people asked for it.
keshav sakthi yes bro nothing offence it's just my view and many people are also asking for Moto g5s plus review.Moto g5s plus review sud come B4 A1
Sanket surolia the difference is by a matter of days bro, shooting a review isn't easy stuff. Think like this, he can't review two phones at the same time, that wouldn't be justice to any one device. Also he ended up using this phone during his trip, so now he has more experience with it, so he published this review. If he had done the Moto g5splus review now, someone like you will still complain about why the a1 review isn't out. Patience is key my friend. If you want a proper in depth review, you have to wait for it
keshav sakthi but Ranjit sir always does review after 9 to 10 days dats y I asked y he have done A1 review first,Moto g5s plus review Sud come first.and common bro I am not against Ranjit sir,it's just my point and I think I m right.so let's end this discussion here,it's my view and will stay on it
The answer is simple. Moto g5s plus will be available in the amazon anytime. But Xiaomi is notorious for their flash sales. So right now Xiaomi is the priority. Because it does offer many things and it might be the perfect phone for many. Many are waiting for sir's opinion before jumping on the bandwagon. So Xiaomi is the priority. Many can decide whether they want it or not before flash sales end..
Xiaomi a1 or Honor 2i/Mate 10 lite??
Harris Shakeel go for honor 9 lite.. U will be simply amazed with 9lite..
Ranjit sir can u plz give me opinion about to purchase the Mi A1 cellphone on the price of Rs.22000.
Would u recommend it for the main purpose of camera use.
Plz reply sir.
Sir,
After dual camera set up in all mid range phone do you think xiaomi will be coming with infinity screen in mid range segment with in few months?
Sir can you compare it with Redmi note 4
Technical guru Ji 😝😝
Sab thik he yaar but fatega toh nahi na??? 😂😂
Which is best overall package and a best Deal Mi A1 at 14k or Honor 7X at 13k?
Many users are complaining about network issue on this device on Flipkart are you facing any issues?

Can anybody tell me why all xiaomi phones have worst audio output like in this video while video recording. So low and pitched audio.. i am facing this problem in my redmi 4A.
Fact Hunter same here with my note 4x
No idea, audio on my backup redmi 2 sounds like the video is being recorded underwater
Fact Hunter same here....same problem
Fact Hunter mi a1 has the best audio quality, which is way better than many of the flagship phones.
It is due to agressive noise cancelling
Please compare with cemera flashlight Moto G5S Plus versus MI A1
saurabh bharti of course Mi A1 because it has dual tone LED flash
YUVRAJ SINGH moto too have dual tone flash
Hi ranjit, Mi a1 vs Nokia 6.1 suggest a phone... Which is best..Both are android 1...
Hey ranjeet. Are other earphones compatible with this phone?
You seem like a MU student. Repeating facts to make the answer lengthy.

Can you suggest which phone is better? Xiaomi Mi A1 or Moto G5s plus?
@Geekyranjit
Can you please tell if iMobile is supported?
Last time I bought Galaxy S7 and was shocked to know that iMobile is incompatible with S7.
Is Mi A1 compatible?
Thanks.
Does black a1 has the same quality...bcoz i heard black one is made in china
Bhavin Sinyal no all colours made in India.. I'm using black A1 and trust me it's awesome
I'm looking to buy but a lot of comments say that the A1 has network fluctuation . How is it for you so far?
Benny Damien it's been three days I'm using it and it is awesome.. trust me and go for it ..you will not regret it
Varun Kishore i want to buy it for camera stock android and some gaming should i go for it?
Can 'NIGHTMARE' Karahan absolutely .. it's been more than a week and I'm loving it.

G5 s plus is better

+Geekyranjit My MI A1 is heating a lot while charging and using the camera and when I'm using normal apps or media consumption there is not much heating so should I go for a replacement, is it a real problem? please reply.
Samsung j3 2017 ki unboxsing karo bhai
I used Mi A1 reviewd after 4 days. I reviewed pros and cons.
Pros. 1. Weight is light 2. Sound is very good. 3. Processor is good. 4. Display is good 5. Looks is nice.
Cons. 1. Camera is very bad in no sun light. Back camera is not up to satisfaction level. 2. Battery performance is very very poor. Full charge is giving full day charge only for normal using with internet 3. Network issue is going horrible. 4. Heating issue while charging and continue internet surfing.
Final conclusion: Mi company create marketing wave this is good dual camera mobile but this is true. This mobile cheat you. Fake review is going on.
Rakesh Gupta: It comes with built-in own equalizer.?
Bhai tu kab se reviewer ho gya .
Nice review @Geekyranjit! just wondering this phone can support 4G+ in India? I can see that Airtel has one with interband CA of Band 3 + Band 40.. Kindly comment
im using it for almost 5 years bill is of 6-oct 2017 just changed 1 time battery and it's today i have changed no issue as such yes i have broke display many many times using dublicate display but it's perfectly working
Ranjit sir Moto G5s plus , MI A1& MI max 2 which one you will pick for daily uses...
Sir please suggest me accordingly to you which one looks better in terms of colour variant.. black or gold.
Actually i am planning to buy this one.
Thanks indeed.
battery life? can you get a full day with nice usage?
Is MI A1 working perfectly after Oreo upgrade also please answer
Hi what do you suggest buying an Galaxy S7 new unopen or buying the MI A1?
Which one would you get? Mi A1 or Honor 7x?
I am currently owning a MI5 , is it worth to shift ?
Hi Ranjit, good day to you!
I would like to ask you question, which one to get, Xiaomi Mi A1 or Moto Z Play as in now the price range in my country is almost the same. In term of display, camera, built quality, and battery life. I really confused which one to get, to me Moto Z Play seems a better choice but it only have 3GB of RAM.. is it enough in 2017 and future proof for the next several years?
Thanks and looking forward for your answer. 😁
Can i use it under water. or dose it have any splash resistance. can it survive water
