Is Redmi Note8 A Good Buy by AyomideToks(m): 8:45am On May 04, 2020
I would love to buy the Redmi Note 8 but I have seen some reviews about how it takes time to charge, it doesn't come with a earpiece.
Pls do you think it is a good buy, if it isn't what Other phone can I buy at a price range of 60,000 I don't want Tecno,Infinix or Itel

1. It doesn't come with earphones which is true but let's be honest here, you'd probably buy another earphone with better bass

2. It charges fast (2 hours tops), unless you use your device when charging

3. It's a good buy cos you're getting your money's worth

I use a Redmi note 8 4GB/64GB and the charging is great. I don't think the Redmi brand makes earphones along with their phones but the Redmi note 8 has extra speakers for bass.

The phone is cool. Got my variant for 65k.

Re: Is Redmi Note8 A Good Buy by KulKid(m): 12:49pm On May 04, 2020
Switched from Samsung to xaiomi just to get a new experience during this lockdown! Bought the note 8! From my experience phone is very smooth faster than my S8+ self! Screen is bright although not as good as Samsung! Camera well it's android if u need a good camera Apple is your guy! That's one thing I don't understand about all these android they have 108mp 48mp still yet an iPhone with just 12mp will destroy them in photography! undecided Well aside camera phone is dope! But if u want to boost your photography just download gcam for Xaiomi note 8! wink

Well, I bought mine on February,I was a bit disappointed when I found out it doesn't come with an earpiece (mine is the 3/32gig and black variant). The camera is good but the camera app could have been better,you could easily fix that by downloading Gcam. I like the phone a lot,it's highly customisable,I has a gorilla glass 5 screen at the back but the edges of the phone is plastic sad. I do have an issue with storage though,all downloaded apps go to phone storage instead of SD card and I don't know why.
It's a good phone basically,I suggest you get the ones with larger storage and larger ram for a smoother experience.

Software algorithm and Apple isn't the best out there, just one of the best.
