Flipping it over, you'll be confronted with a single lens back camera, LED Flash, and the second Redmi inscription. Apart from these, there is nothing else on the back of the phone.
It should be noted that the new phone's back camera setup is different from that of the Redmi 6A, while the previous phone's single lens back camera, and its LED flash, were arranged horizontally, those of the new Xiaomi Redmi 7A are arranged vertically.
By the way, just like in the Redmi 6A, there is no fingerprint reader, either on the back or front of the Redmi 7A. Fortunately, the new phone features Face Unlock. Therefore, you'll have to rely on either the Face Unlock or screen pattern, for your phone security.
