Redmi Y2 review

Xiaomi smartphone for selfie lovers with AI-Selfie technology. Xiaomi smartphone with face lock.

According our opinion

Redmi Y2 is a balanced smartphone. It’s design is similar to Mi A1 (handy design) but not compatible for one handed use. We can say it is hybrid design between Mi A1 and Redmi Note 5 Pro. A normal person can take advantage of portrait mode with great AI-selfie.
