Xiaomi is leaving no stone unturned in their bid to capitalize on India’s growing mobile market. After recently unveiling their flagship phones, the Mi A2 and a toned down version, the Mi A2 Lite, at a global launch event in Madrid, Xiaomi is all set to offer the Mi A2 to Indian consumers in August. The phones were definitely an upgrade from the previous generation in terms of camera hardware and AI features.

Now, Xiaomi’s India Managing Director, Manu Kumar Jain, has officially confirmed the Mi A2 India launch date as August 8th on his Twitter account. This certainly will be welcomed by Mi fans in India; however, there is no word yet on the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite launch date for India.

The Mi A2 price for the European market starts at 249 euros and the top-end model, with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, is priced at 349 euros. Going by these prices, we can expect the Mi A2 to be offered at similar price range in India. On conversion, the Mi A2 could be priced between Rs.20,000 and Rs.28,000 for the premium variant.
