While the two smartphones are nearly identical in some departments, there are also certain key points of difference that set them apart. Those who primarily use the camera to take selfies may find Tecno Spark GO more appealing due to its comparatively better front camera. On the other hand, those who usually rely on the rear camera to click pictures may prefer the Xiaomi Redmi A1, thanks to its rear camera which is more powerful on paper. Another major point of difference is that Tecno’s offering is 5G-enabled and its Redmi counterpart only offers up to 4G connectivity.
