It also has a built-in fingerprint sensor at the back for added security, an uncommon staple in smartphones in this price range. Redmi Note 5A Prime comes with a two-plus-one SIM tray design, which allows two SIM cards and one microSD card to be used at the same time, while memory can be expanded up to 128GB. Finally, a built-in IR blaster means the device also doubles up as a universal remote control.
