Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Review

Score: 74.6 / 100

Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 is a brilliantly designed Android phone launched back in 2019, with an enormous 6.3 inches screen, a very fast Octa-Core CPU clocking at 2000 MHz, and two cameras, a 48 MP back camera and a 13 megapixels front facing camera.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 665 SM6125 chip, including a high speed Octa-Core CPU clocking at 2000 megahertz and a big 3 GB of RAM. A good advantage of this cellphone is the 32 GB big internal storage and an SD card slot, enough to install hundreds of apps without having to worry about running out of space at all.

This device is a compact phone, taking into consideration it presents a 6.3" display and it only has 6.23" long. Being just 0.33 inches thick,this phone is extremely thin and comfortable. This phone body design is a mix of Glass and Plastic . Xiaomi made this phone in lots of colors like cosmic purple, moonlight white, nebula purple, neptune blue and space black. It appears that Xiaomi forgot about weight optimization in this 6.7 oz phone.

This phone is equipped with a great 6.3-inches screen with a 1080 x 2340 resolution, which makes all images and videos look perfect.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 is equipped with two cameras, a 48 MP back-facing camera and a 13 megapixels front facing camera. the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8's back-facing camera lens has a 1.8 aperture so it can capture impressive photographs even in poor lighting situations. This phone also captures 4K 3840x2160 videos at 30 fps, and 1280x720 HD slow-motion videos at 240 frames per second.

This phone features wi-fi connectivity (which can be shared with other devices acting as a wireless router or modem), LTE-A 4G , the fastest internet connection and fast 3G connectivity, supported by HSPA technologies. This cellphone uses 2 Nano SIM cards so it's able to work with two different phone lines and even different carriers at the same time.

This phone has amassive 4000 mAh Li - Polymer non-replaceable battery that can keep this phone running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without having to charge it at all. An issue to evaluate is that this cellphone's battery isn't removable so you won't be able to replace it when it starts to lose capacity, although having 4000 mAh you will probably discard this cellphone before it happens.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 also features lots of useful characteristics such as Fingerprint ID, Infrared Port, Bluetooth and GPS, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This cellphone costs around $ 227, which is a rather high price for this kind of cellphone.
