The disappointing part or feature of the Mi A2 might be its battery. Mi A2 has a battery capacity of 3010 mAh which supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 4.0 but for heavy mobile users, this will be an issue. It has the USB Type-C port for fast charging. Also, Xiaomi has removed the headphone jack in Mi A2 so again it might sound bad to some users but they are providing the 3.5mm to USB Type-C converter so that you can continue if you want to use your headphones.

After the success of Mi A1, it looks like Xiaomi wants to keep up the momentum with its stock android series and A2 delivers that promise with a good combination of hardware and software.

The only concern is about the battery life and heating issues, otherwise, it looks good to go device at this price point.
