i noticed some people bashing the xiaomi note 8 camera , though i havent handled it yet but i noticed something with the note 7 last year it was launched, i bought the note 7 for my kid sis from aliexpress , while her friend got hers from one of the stores here or on jumia cant remember, i noticed the camera with and without gcam for the note 7 i ordered on aliexpress was superior to that of her friend bought here, then it got me asking is it that version being sold in Nigeria are of lower quality compared to the ones sold outside

I doubt.. I used a Note 7, the rear camera was superb.. I got mine from jumia.

Truth be told, people are not saying the truth on this thread. Camera on note 8 is average. Forget the 48 mp thingy. Anyway i didn't buy the phone cos of camera Infact i hardly use camera. Just want those looking out on note 8 because of camera to think twice oo

That you still mentioned 48mp shows you know nothing about photography.

This issue of 48mp has been addressed here on several occasions. Check Gptech's posts.

Really surprised that people still bring it up.

After using Redmi note 3 for about two years, I have finally joined the note 8 team ( and also added DH to the Xiaomi community, he is impressed).
Well, so far, note 8 has been refreshing.
Not much review now, but its most outstanding feature isn't so exceptional after all.
I have had a better camera from oppo with much lesser specs .12mp, which I will rate 8.5/10.
Well, maybe it was just the hypes with note 8 48mp.

I read some comments here about a girl's opinion of the note 8's camera, and some guys here were saying she probably doesn't know what good camera means.
I felt wow, note 8 must be so high then.
Not until I handled mine. Its 48mp isn't exactly what I expected. 7.3/10.
The front camera is out of it!.
But all the same, it's a significant upgrade from my note 3.
I think the note series generally don't have great cameras. Forget the number dem dey write for MP.
And yeah, I know what a good phone camera is and does.

The speed is incredible. I'm still finding it hard to use this on-screen buttons sha. If I need to click the space bar, sometimes I got the home button lol. And no, I got tiny fingers.
The sound is excellent and loud.
The phone is sleek.
We got blue and black colours. I love blue, but I got black.
And erm, I got a nano liquid screen protector from my seller, Maybach, I use YouTube to guide me through its installation but right now, I don't know if it worked. I mean, how does one test this? I'm not tempted to use my key to scratch my screen tho (illustrated in most of the videos I watched, but thank you, one even used hammer wtf?!) I am still getting a tempered glass sha.
I got a new case from my seller too. It's fresh, but it covered the phone's beauty, so I'm using the follow come silicone case, maybe for now until I don't find this phone special anymore ( which usually takes just a few weeks).
The battery is more than okay. I moved my data and apps from my old phone to note 8 using the Mi mover. Okay, talking about this now, I just realized shey I never move some bugs sef join like this?.
Cause e dey be like say I had more battery performance before I moved my apps abi na just my thinking? Cc gptech, grandmufti help me o.
Anyways on H+, it takes about 5 mins to lose 1% charge. I will have to compare it with my hubby's.

Dh already got an alert for the update to mini 11, but I never see anything. Not that I'm upgrading soon.

and Graphics is more than 'just okay.' Dark wallpapers make it come out better and beautiful.


overall 8/10. (for the price).


PS; I'm definitely selling in a few days! I got this for the camera, but I'm not impressed. no, be only me notice am.

You can check out this Gcam.

And follow the instructions on the Screenshot below.

As for the stock camera app, it will get better with updates, RN5 used to be like that in its early stages. But my shots now are unbelievable.

They are not actually saturated but they mostly use sony cameras which to me is better that the Samsung cameras, most Xiaomi phones are installed with Samsung cameras and it just brings out the natural you, which most people don't like

Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by toppzzyy: 2:50pm On Dec 25, 2019
honestly, Xiaomi cameras have impressed me. I currently use mi A3 and I have used and laid hands on several flagship phone. we can't reach a conclusion as the quality of picture is subjective. as long as the production meets the lowest standard acceptable, let's just roll.
if a professional photographer(Sammy boy) a friend of mine was more impressed with the A3 over his Sammy a30, it shows its not about loyalty to brand. my loyalty is to value for money not brand.

Perspective! Maybe you should go for flagship devices since you are after cameras. What is good for you might be bad for others and vice versa. Never be moved by mega pixel count on cameras, picture quality largely does not depend on mega pixels just like larger ram does not determine speed of phones. For example the Redmi note 4 with 13mp outperforms the Redmi note 3 pro with 16mp. Coming from the note 3, maybe you actually expected a really huge upgrade with the cameras. Having said that, the Redmi note series starting with the Redmi note 5 offer better camera experience than any other phone with similar price bracket, it became even better starting from the note 7 because gcam can just be downloaded and used without any tweak, since camera2api is enabled out of the box. This is the real hype behind the cameras. The Redmi note 7 has a very good camera, the pro is even far better, that your friend said otherwise doesn't mean much afterall someone said the Samsung Galaxy A70 has a better camera than the Oneplus 7 pro some days back, fast forward to today, she is completely blown away by the cameras of the Mi 9T, it completely floored the A50 and A70 (side by side comparisons were made).
