Review on Xiaomi Redmi 8 4/64 GB Global Smartphone, Ruby Red by Danish Affndy ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I expected more from buying, but not the worst option.

I'm not very satisfied with the phone because of the shortcomings listed above. Compared it and A3. A3 has a subjectively worse connection, I liked it less visually. And yes, the A3 does have a jamb with a screen lock during a call. While I was looking in the store - every time I turned on the speakerphone with my cheek when I tried to call. I think this jamb is due to the fact that the A3 speaker is located right at the end of the phone, and out of habit I placed the phone as if the speaker was a centimeter from the top edge. Hence the non-working blocking and complaints about the connection.

Pros
  • -Battery. Lasts more than 2 days with intensive use (mainly surfing and instant messengers). I must say right away that I turned off 4G as unnecessary, and the "Reading" mode is always on. - Good screen - The size. Not small, but not super big, like Mi MAX 3. Fits into a bag and into pockets - A very good connection. And I can hear well. - Music quality through headphones. - Loud speaker. I liked it right away when I took it in my hand. Lie down comfortably. Watched it and A3. -I really like the "Reading" mode. Makes colors pleasantly warm. On all the time. -Navigation works well. - Some of the pre-installed applications are removed without problems. - minimum brightness - can be reduced to almost zero, so that it is comfortable in the dark. - No glitches, freezes, etc.
Cons
  • - Lack of light indication. This is a huge drawback - you have to constantly turn it on, watch something come or not. I think Xiaomi does not put an indicator so that people would also buy a smart bracelet in addition) - The camera is not great. Takes off the norms, but nothing outstanding. No 4k video. True, I don’t really need it, but at 12 megapixels it was possible to make pixel by pixel, without transcoding. - Headphone output on the bottom. Not very comfortable. - no call recording, but this is the jamb of the whole new android. - Tons of ads. You need to spend half an hour, which is the most prohibited everywhere. - Some kind of incomprehensible surveillance of me. You come to a place where you have never been with navigation turned off, and then you get a message "Rate this store" . - For some reason, the power consumption setting was hidden in Privacy and deeper . - I still consider USB C to be a disadvantage, because. in an instant, all the old chargers, adapters and data cables became useless. - Maximum brightness. On the street at max brightness, nothing is visible even on a cloudy day. - having used it longer, I lowered the rating to 3. It turned out that the phone does not see the flash drive with NTFS and does not connect to the monitor via USB C - HDMI. Just a bummer at all (

Its pros: A very balanced and thoughtful phone with good stuffing, for the money. Different cons: A little thick, but this is the price for a large Akum.

Some pros: Everything was fine at first Has cons: With each ate, the sensor is more buggy and applications slow down, and it asks for too many permissions. Why does the calculator need my personal data.
