Have even use deep delete searching from folder to folders can fine anything thing still have 1gb as other file
1gig is not too much so long you have enough space to run your phone, you are fine. Might be a rom ish because there are times I see used up space on that section.
Lastly, I just checked another device close by, here's the outcome grin.

That section of storage called Other Files, include ordinary non-media files that You have either downloaded or apps use to function in your phone.. Files like Zip and archive files, data cache from your browser which it uses to load up websites faster, etc.. So if u want to go hunting for what to delete, Be Very Careful about it

For Cleanup, I highly recommend SDMaid Pro.. Literally the most efficient cleanup tool.. It recognises every app in your fone and deletes only files that apps won't need or can easily recreate without affecting performance of these apps.. Also it can detect junk files of apps u have uninstalled and help u clean it up

Also, please, some of u have over 100 apps in yr 16GB fone, please go through these apps and delete anything u are not actively using.. The Average Smartphone app is as large as a good PC software from 2005, ranging from something as small as 2MB (Facebook Lite) to 200/300MB (Snapchat), so u must be careful how u pile up apps.. Take note of what and what u need yr fone for and keep One App Each for Every Need.. No need having VLC AND MX Player on one fone cos u want to buffer 240p nonsense from Xvids grin Curate your software and take back your space

Any advice telling people to just go into their file managers and start deleting files all willy-nilly is horrible advice.. If u think about it, na now I know why iPhone no get File Manager
Your message is understood but some stuff up there are not true, are you saying I have no files in archives or I don't have cached files grin?

This is terrible advice.. Tomorrow when he ends up deleting his WhatsApp Backups folder (which android sees as Other Files), or deletes the files his 17GB grin worth of Apps use to work, and one of them starts crashing and stops functioning properly, na u go answer the Clarion Call wink
But each folder dey clearly stated nau. Whatsapp backups are saved as messagestore as shown on his screenshot. So long e nr go delete obb files, files from Android-Data, e nr get problem. I get your point sha, na here somebody go use deep clean delete many of im important files because person tell am to use cleaner to free up phone memory grin.

If I'm correct Xiaomi doesn't really have a lot of mtk devices. Besides, this is one of the selling point of the phone.. I was fortunate enough to watch the phone launch in India as well as the attend the launch here in Nigeria.. I think they are passionate about using this particular SoC. And I know mtk helio series (p60 for example is a performer) are really good.. honestly I have no problem having a mtk device right now (I also know how terrible the mtk were back in the days). Meanwhile I play a lot of pubg so I'm more or less interested only it's pubg performance plus having four camera sensors is fancy
There's nothing new under the sun. Wetin u dey do now don happen here before, the days of the Redmi note 2,then the Redmi note 4 mtk versus snapdragon, even the Redmi pro. Get what you want but Xiaomi will be the first to drop support for their mtk devices. Yes, even older snapdragon devices will likely get better support, quicker miui updates and security patches than the Redmi note 8 pro. No need to drag much, buy if you like it, you might just be lucky grin.

alright thanks for your response..but there's actually a gcam that can give you both ultra wide and telephoto.
Ooo, that's nice, haven't come across one, maybe because I haven't used gcam on a phone with ultra wide.

Hello guys. Please after unlocking bootloader, how do i flash custom rom? Do i need a computer or i can flash it with just phone
You need a computer to flash TWRP, from then you can flash custom roms without needing a pc.

greetings everyone..gcam on my K20 pro global rom ..I was playing with the settings this evening when I got to the camera the highest resolution for back camera is 12mp and for from is 5mp ... isn't the back supposed to be 48mp and the front 20mp?
Use it like that, gcam is a camera port from Google Pixels, so there's no way you'll see a 48MP mode or even an ultra wide mode since those are not available on Google Pixels. Meanwhile, the 48MP is actually a 12MP in real life, and Mega pixels is not what determines a great camera.

I use redmi 7 And thinking of upgrading to redmi 8, what would you advise?

Candid advice will be appreciated
That's not an upgrade, an upgrade is when you buy a Redmi note 7 at least.

So is it the ram?

This is actually a new gcam Boss Gptech introduced to me and it's way better than the former, I don't know which other Gcam is there for me to try.
For note 7, night sight crashes, surprisingly it works well with the Mi 8 lite. You should look for a config file other than the one uploaded for note 7 on the site, might just work

Just the digitizer.
Its advisable to get a total screen pack that comprises screen, digitiser and frame for reasons like this.
