MIUI 10.2.7 Update Adds AI Portrait Mode for Rear Camera on Xiaomi Redmi 7A

Xiaomi Redmi 7A users in India are now getting a new MIUI 10.2.7 stable update which adds AI Portrait Mode for the rear camera. Right after the launch of Redmi 7A a couple of months ago, Xiaomi said that an update would add Portrait mode for the rear-facing camera and the company has stuck to its promise. To recall, the Redmi 7A features single cameras on both the front and back, but the selfie camera offered a Portrait mode which works entirely based on software. Xiaomi did not reveal why the AI Portrait mode was not added to the Redmi 7A at the launch, nevertheless, it’s now available inside the MIUI camera app beside the Photo mode. MIUI 10.2.7 update is now rolling out to Redmi 7A users in the country and it’s a phased rollout, so only select users will get it first.

Redmi 7A is the Cheapest Redmi Phone to Come With AI Portrait Mode

With AI Portrait Mode, the Redmi 7A users can now capture images with bokeh effect, but as mentioned, the effect will be added entirely by software. The Realme C2 in a similar price range has dual cameras on the back whereas the Redmi 7A ships with only one rear camera. The Redmi 7A’s rear camera sensor is the 12MP Sony IMX486 which we found on the Redmi Note 5 Pro and Mi A2 smartphones last year. Besides the AI Portrait Mode, the company has also added AI Scene Detection functionality as well. The Redmi 7A is the cheapest Xiaomi phone to support both AI Portrait Mode and AI Scene Detection modes. Also, the Redmi 7A is the first A-series phone to offer both the features.
