Luckily today (29.04.2025) I've got a brand new piece at RP Tech Qatar by QAR 100 only. They had some old stocks and as it's a very old model that's why they kept very reasonable price. I had a very good experience with xiaomi 4a an xiaomi 4x. That's why suddenly planned to buy it although I know it can run upto android 9 but it doesn't matter for using this device as a primary device.

I can officially say that my A1 has been retired after being drove over by a tractor. The thing still works and can receive calls, but the lcd is dead. RIP Mi A1 (2017-2025)

A fantastic phone that I've been using for several years as my main phone, sadly it's gradually slowing down from a mix of aging, and the newest apps often demanding more, due to higher CPU's becoming more common.
I'll likely be upgrading to a device with a stronger CPU and perhaps more RAM in the future, but this phone with a Custom ROM to ensure that it was up to date security/android wise, has been fantastic, and it'll do well as a backup phone for several more years.
Plus the fact that it's still usable to this day means that I can afford to take my time to decide what phone I want and then wait for a sale to boot.

I had this phone from 2018 to 2021. It ended support on stock Android 9 indeed, and it was not a bad phone at all. The only problem I could say is I was concerned about it's SAR. Highest on a phone I've seen so far. Storage could be an issue for long term usage too, however I had an SD card.

I don't use the phone daily, it just carries my other 2 chips in case I have to receive calls...
Not a bad phone overall, but if I don't get a new battery, I might have to put it to sleep for good....
