micxwell:
I stumbled on a guy at my workplace using Redmi Note 5. I identified if from afar with the volume bar shape. I went through the phone. If I had it, I doubt If I'll buy a Redmi Note 8. The phone is good. To think that I was just giving this people my money all these years .

RN5 Gang, we pepper this place last year sha, RN7 people dey learn for where RN5 people dey last year.

Trex4:
Funny enough it might get Android 11 oh remember the redmi Note 5. The sales of the Note 8 is actually surpassing the redmi Note 7.

Also can you please help me with the prices of current Xiaomi phones released in Nigeria? I want to introduce a group of people to the brand.

R8a - 2/32Gb -36.5k
R8 - 3/32 - 45k, 4/64 - 48k
RN 8 3/32Gb - 58k, 4/64 - 63k, 4/128Gb-70k (There are good deals on the thread store, eg Macbeyland 4/64 with accessories)
RN 8 PRO - 6/64 - 83k 6/128 - 90k
Mi A3 - 4/64 71.9k, 4/128 - 79.9k(You can get this one way cheaper on Aliexpress)
Mi 9T - 6/128 119.5k(You can still get it cheaper on Aliexpress)

iheartellah:
Gcam

This is not the right mod for your phone.

vower:
calm down bro,the one I ordered is from aliexpreess, redmi k20 not mi9t which is more expensive.

Mi 9T is more expensive than K20.

Global Versions are always more expensive than the ones meant for the Chinese market

deuzgreat:
Oh.. OK. I'm on a budget but if 8pro is good, can force out d extra fee

The higher the better but the Note 8 Pro doubles your budget, but you can settle for the RN8 sha

Aventis:
Now wey I don buy mi9 lite for 118k from jumia. Na now deals like this go dey show up and down

Less than 118k would even get you Mi 9T from AliExpress

deuzgreat:
A base? Pls explain.

The smallest of the recent wave of Xiaomi devices. That is what he meant by base.

R8a<R8<RN8<RN8PRO

Nellsworld:
Good morning, pls have anyone upgraded to MIUI 11, Android 10 on his or her RN8 and hw is ur experience with it and will RN8 receive Android 11, and new MIUI new versions.
Thanks

Not sure of Android 11, Android 10 is very certain. MIUI 13 we get to you. Xiaomi have a way of incorporating features of new android versions on MIUI so you won't miss much.

MightyGEE:
Without GCAM xiaomi's stock camera is nowhere near the infinix S series camera, camon, infinix zeros series . Well thanks to GCAM

Hehehehehe, it is a lie though.

All my RN5 pictures on this thread have been stock camera. Don't deceive yourself with over saturation and under exposure

macbeyland:
I decided to do a GLO 3g vs 4g network test on Redmi note 8T this morning and the results were amazing.

Check out the speed difference.

There's no glo band 3 in my area so the note 8T is getting glo 4g on band 28.

The screenshot with the high figure shows 4g while the lower one is 3G

My Glo Band 3 is faster than this.

Also the young man has collected the Redmi Note 8T from your brother. Second time I have directed your way and you have lived up to your name. More business coming.

Sheriman:
I use China Standard Shipping

Which one is China Standard Shipping?

jumong232:

Not this one.

Sheriman:
Trackable.. I have Track it on NIGERIA Post office I saw some informations on it

Post a Screenshot of your Nipost tracking

Sheriman:
Hello my people.. This is my first time of buying Stuff on AliExpress.. Today has make 30days of purchase and I have not received my order.. I have not received any call from POST OFFICE that my order has arrived Nigeria. I need your help guys.

What method of shipping did use, Trackable or Untrackable?

Deeni131:
Does glo works well on Rn8?

RN8 will only work with Glo in areas with Band 3 which is not as much as areas with Band 28.

If Glo 4G was really important to you RN 8T, RN8 Pro, Mi A3, Mi 9 Lite or Mi 9T should have been what you would have gotten

Dainnif:
Please guru in the house, I am very sorry to bother you. I am new here and my redmi note 8 pro will arrive any moment from now.
I am absolutely new to this particular phone and this thread. I had been cheif family of Tecno for over 6 years and this is more reason I will like you guys to help on what I needed to do on the phone.
....... What is Gcam? and it function

GCam is an acronym for Google Camera. Allow your phone to land first

Folahanmi19:
Make una help me o, wifi scanning keeps turning on on its own and it's becoming frustrating

Frequent use of Xender usually caused this.

mathefaro:

Las las everyone will be alright.

Nasty22:

Chills007:

They are jare.
Pointek stores opposite Sharif Plaza, Bands Plaza or Slot stores in Abuja

Emisco1:
Please oo. I just bought the xiaomi note 8. But my notification icon don't stay at the top. My time a d speed meter only.. Only if i slide the tab down. Or get a new notification before i see them..

That's because of the notch, but there should be a settings for this.

Hollusilva28:
I'm totally disappointed in some people here arguing on unnecessary stuff. some youths out there in abroad are researching on how to start a successful business, but here in Nigeria we keep on researching on nonsense, what concerns you about phone that others are using. They decided to buy their phone not with your money. So why open thread here talking about Redmi 8. I joined Xiaomi family upper last week Friday, I've been using Redmi note 8, nobody force me to buy it. I discovered redmi through nairaland and watching of YouTube videos .

Pls, let stop all these madness, if you like buy itel or globacom phone, nobody is forcing you.

My advice, make sure you research well before you buy any phone, so that you won't regret it. For example, I bought bluboo s3 last year September, and this year January the phone stopped working, all my efforts to revive it ,all is vain. I sold the screen to a phone engineer at 6k , the phone I bought at 53k. That's my luck. I've bought & used several phones.

I can recommend Huawei & Redmi. cos I'm coming from Huawei you prime 2019, just joined redmi note 8. No problems with the phone.

Let's stop all these unnecessary arguments.

Happy weekend

Right message, wrong thread

Tiger2020:
is there any noticeable difference

Yes very notable difference, have been using it for 9months now

kallmemrB:
genius43 I have always respected ur view but my argument is based on my current usage

Then refrain for making comments that have no business with you.

kallmemrB:
the same way bode Thomas bark u will embark on it soon.. Continue.. U will become a lesson to others because u decided to carry a matter that doesn't involve u on ur head

Your solution is simple, buy an 18W charger and see if you will charge your phone in 1:10mins then you have won this argument. Simple.

This thread Sha

Mama the mama. Funny thing is, I am l at work. Currently don't have time for all these.

Prince202020:
QC QC QC here and there is just from 0-75% within 30-35mins of charging, 10w might not achieve that, but from 0-100% the difference between QC and 10w is very negligible because of QC's slow charging from 80% to 100%, this is informed by my own personal experience, I use Redmi Note 5 AI + Celbro QC charger.

This is my own opinion you can counter it politely, please.

Mr. Redmi 8 won't agree with this. He should compare his charging speed with a phone with type C not a micro USB.

Tiger2020:
does note 5 support 18wtts charging

Yes that's what I use at the moment
