Chinese smartphone maker Umidigi has launched the budget-friendly Umidigi A11, an entry-level phone that packs surprisingly capable features at a low price. Sold worldwide under the tagline Beyond Dreams, the Umidigi A11 starts at just $99.99 (around Rs 7,324) and is also available to buyers in India. With up to 4GB RAM, 128GB storage and a large battery, it aims to deliver real value for first-time buyers and anyone hunting for an affordable daily driver.
Umidigi A11 Price, Colors and Variants
The Umidigi A11 comes in two variants. The 3GB RAM + 64GB storage model is priced at $99.99, which is about Rs 7,324, while the 4GB RAM + 128GB storage model costs $119.99, or roughly Rs 8,789. The phone is offered in two color options: Mist Blue and Forest Gray. Alongside the handset, the company also launched the UMIDIGI AirBuds U, priced at $24.99 (around Rs 1,830).
That pricing puts the Umidigi A11 firmly in entry-level territory. The base model lands under Rs 7,500, while the higher-tier 4GB + 128GB variant still stays below Rs 9,000, giving buyers a clear choice between saving money and getting more memory and storage. The matching UMIDIGI AirBuds U at $24.99 also gives shoppers an affordable wireless audio option to pair with the new phone.
