Ghost touches. Your display is most likely the culprit.
I have a Xiaomi 13 which had similar issues of recent, just about 2 weeks after I bought it brand new oo, phone no fall nobody hit phone and all of a sudden the volume button starts misbehaving

Volume will just be going either low or high depending on its mood unprovoked, pressing the buttons did nothing, buttons don't work no more. When it's happening, pressing the power button to blank out the screen and turning it back on solves it temporarily until when next it happens again and its frequent

Tried all sorts, even downloaded an app to disable the volume controls but each time I open the camera app, issue starts again, I was almost believing village People got me on this one and was planning on a new device cos I don't believe in using a phone that's been opened for any form of checks or fixes

But I woke up one morning and opened my WhatsApp to see new features and functions, apparently the phone updated overnight. And I noticed the volume malfunction issue stopped too. Phone is back as new and functioning optimally again and I still can't figure out what update fixed the issue

Don't you think he might have a similar software issue here?

Sadly You might encounter more and more of such,

Also try and switch off the virtual ram nonsense and try to enjoy your phone.
Thanks Boss. Have handed the phone over. It was to replace a Redmi 9C and from my experience the Redmi 9C is better when it comes to multitasking.
It seems to enjoy Redmi now, one has to start from the 6gig Ram configuration.
Thanks again for your time.

Good Pm everyone!!
My Redmi 8 4/64 GB died about a week ago and has refused to power on even as i type this.

What could possibly be the cause?? Could it be a hardware or software issue??, Because since 2020 when I bought the phone, I have never opened/repaired it.

I took it to a phone repairer to check the phone and it seems he isn't sure what is wrong with the phone, at first he said battery, and later on he said my battery hasn't completely died, that it should have been able to power the phone.

He is speculating maybe power ic or board itself, but for now I don't even know what's wrong with the car.

Pls house, I need your humble opinion/suggestions, as I have been phone less for about a week now.

My location is Minna, Niger state, so if anyone has a phone repairer that specializes in Redmi phones around minna.

Has he tried another battery before ruling out the battery as the issue. Troubleshooting is strenuous. A new battery should be tested first if that doesn't work then the power IC is next.

He didn't try another battery, he concluded that the phone panel is dead (the first repairer)

Just this morning I took it to another repairer, thou the battery was difficult to get, but he later got one, he will try that one by tomorrow and let's see wether the phone will come up.

Thanks for your response

That is network. MTN is gives to phone makers selectively. Take that same phone out of this country and you see VoLTE
Finally got the voLTE up and running. You were right, MTN pushes it out selectively.

Xiaomi 12 and 12x are 6.2 curved screens so they feel smaller. It's quite hard to find them these days though

I talked to various customer service agents until I got one that understood what I was saying and escalated the issue. Took almost 3 weeks though.
