What’s good1. Large 6.88″ display with 120 Hz refresh rateThe phone comes with a 6.88-inch IPS LCD display and supports a 120 Hz refresh rate, which is impressive in the budget segment. For smoother scrolling, UI animation and gaming it can be a nice plus over the usual 60 Hz displays at this price point.Having “segment-largest” display size is a marketing angle but in practical use it means more screen area for games, media or multitasking.2. Decent chipset: Snapdragon 4s Gen 2 (4 nm process)The phone uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 4s Gen 2 chipset (4nm), which is good to see in a budget 5G phone. Manufacturing on a 4 nm process typically means better energy efficiency compared to older nodes — which should help battery life.3. 50 MP main cameraRear main camera of 50 MP is a strong spec for a budget model. The dual camera (though often the second lens is “helper” / depth / macro) gives more flexibility than a very basic single sensor.4. Expandable storage, good batteryThe phone supports microSD expansion (up to ~1TB reported) alongside internal storage. Battery is 5,160 mAh (approx) according to datasheet. 18W fast charging advertised. Good to see at this segment. Runs Android 14 with Xiaomi’s HyperOS skin. 5. Colour & design optionsYou mentioned “Sparkle Purple, 6 GB RAM, 128 GB Storage” — good that the storage is generous if that variant is available. The colour gives a bit of flair.The company lists other options too (Starry Black etc.). —⚠️ What to watch / tradeoffs1. “HD+” resolution on large 6.88″ panelWhile the 120 Hz refresh is excellent, the resolution is listed as HD+ (720 × ~1640) in many specs. On a 6.88″ screen this means pixel density will be lower than Full HD screens — you may notice less sharpness when reading fine text or viewing high-res content.If visual clarity is important (e.g., watching high resolution video, reading for long time) this might be a compromise.2. The “dual camera” may not mean two very strong lensesWhile 50 MP main is solid, the second camera is unspecified or less strong in many reports (macro/secondery). Camera performance will likely be good for casual needs but not on par with premium phones. Also low light performance may be limited in budget phones.3. Charger / fast charging speed are moderate18W fast charging is decent but not extremely fast in current market context (some budget phones offer 30-33W+). So charging will take a bit longer.Make sure the charger in box / quality is acceptable.4. Software update & featuresThe chipset supports 5G but check actual band support (for your region) if you rely on specific 5G bands. Some reports mention limited SA/NSA support. Because it’s a budget model, build materials, finish, cameras/LCD quality, may not match higher tier phones.5. Variant you mention (6GB RAM) — verify availabilityMany specs sheets list 4GB RAM variants. Some mention 6GB. Example: 4/64, 4/128 in India. So the “6GB RAM, 128GB Storage” variant you mention may or may not be officially launched in all markets or at same price — check local availability.—🎯 Is it a good buy for you?Given the features, yes — for someone looking for a 5G capable phone at budget pricing, with a large screen, higher refresh rate and good amount of storage, the Redmi A4 5G is very competitive.If I were to set conditions:If your budget is modest and you prioritize large screen + smooth 120Hz over extreme camera or top-tier display resolution → this is a solid choice.If you watch lots of HD/UHD content, read a lot, or care about display sharpness → you may want to compare with a phone that offers Full HD (1080p) resolution.If you use the phone for gaming or heavy camera-use (night photography etc) → consider the camera lens setup & charging speed trade-off.If you found the 6GB/128GB version at a good price in your region, that gives extra future-proofing for multitasking/storage.—🔍 My verdictI’d rate it as a “very good budget pick”, especially in its segment. If I were buying it, I would check:Local price in India (or your country) for the 6GB/128GB variant + colour “Sparkle Purple”.Confirm that 5G bands work for your network.Check user reviews for the display sharpness, camera in low light, battery life (with 120Hz usage).
