Good morning, tech experts. I've made my research on the topic but believe it'll be more helpful to hear from direct day-to-day users.

So, which would you suggest I go for?

Please note that I am an article writer (battery's important) who values great pictures (camera). Thank you as you help.

For the battery obviously the Redmi.. but the difference won't be a wide margin. But, for the pictures the A50 takes it. But ,since you're a writer an article writer I'll want to suggest the A50 cos of the features it will help you with. But you need to be efficient as a writer also the Xiaomi wins here. It's tight for me to decide though. Maybe go for the Xiaomi

The cost of galaxy a50 would get you the new released Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC which is far superior except for the super AMOLED display of a50... Between x3 and a50, you have:
33w vs 15w fast charging,
5100mA vs 4000mA,
4k vs 1k video recording,
64mp vs 25mp,
SD732g (8nm) vs Exynos 9610 (10nm)— the SD is 100% faster and less power consuming because it's compiled with smaller diodes/transistors,
IR and nfc vs null,
CCG5 vs CCG3,
120hz vs 60hz refresh rate

Only the super AMOLED of a50 is a better specification over FHD IPS of the poco x3

If I were you, I'll go for the poco x3

How much is this xiaomi Poco x3

Stay away from the Samsung a50, I recommend either the poco x3 or note 8 pro. The a50 heats up really fast and drains battery super fast, exynos 9610 is crazy compared to either the g90t or 732g

Broh, maybe your A50 is faulty. Thats what am using

A50 is the best...thats wht am using

The only thing the a50 has over note 8 pro is it's amoled display, note 8 pro beats it hands down everywhere else including the camera
