Xiaomi introduced the first version of its Redmi A27U monitor without a USB Type-C port in August 2020, and a new model is now available. The monitor now also lets users hook up their laptops or any other compatible device directly to the monitor through the USB Type-C port that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode. This is especially important for the neat freak in you as it means not having to use any additional cables.
