Among the important indicators are the presence of a sensor for automatic adjustment of the brightness of the backlight and at least the average quality of the oleophobic coating. The display should be flat. This is exactly what the Redmi 9A offers. In addition, the brightness margin is good. Even in cloudy weather you will be able to read the information from the screen.
