Review on Xiaomi Camera Gaming Processor Unlocked by Adam Trela ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

There are disadvantages, but the product is usable.

Redmi Note 8 Pro is positioned by many reviewers as a gaming smartphone. This is how it should be perceived. I took it as a "universal option for everything", and was disappointed. I don't understand why everyone is praising him. As a game - yes, good. But there are a lot of cons. - weak glass I used the last phone for three years, without protective glasses and quite often - without a case. Not a single scratch on the screen. I regret to find that the screen of Redmi Note 8 Pro is much more delicate - after two weeks of careful use, the glass has collected a number of scratches; - Weak antenna. This topic pops up periodically in different forums (you can start with w3bsit3-dns. Com). Many are unhappy with how the phone holds the network. Some people think it's a marriage. My opinion is that the phone just has a weak / poorly designed antenna. In the city you may not notice this, but outside the city it will make itself felt. - beautiful, but not practical case. Yes, it's glass. No, there is no desire to use the phone without a case. Because the strongly protruding camera interferes, and the phone itself is extremely slippery. As a result, we overpay for a beautiful glass case, which we will hide in a case, and which, moreover, complicates the repair of the device (it is not easy to open this cover without damaging it); - the camera shines with technical parameters but does not shine with pictures. Pictures often come out blurry at the edges, and to achieve an acceptable result you have to try. Yes, the camera as a whole is not bad, but not as good as it is "painted" in many reviews; - pandemonium with firmware. Xiaomi releases them, then withdraws them. In each new ate, something is repaired, and something is broken. Lots of embedded ads. As a result - in my opinion so-so phone. High performance, but poor network coverage. Beautiful, but impractical and easily scratched. Camera with cool features, but raw software. For every "pro" there is a "contra". In general, I'm not happy with it, I'm thinking about replacing it.

Pros
  • - high performance; - long time of work; - a good camera.
Cons
  • - weak antenna; - impractical (but beautiful) case; - weak screen glass (scratched); - the camera that everyone praises - not without problems and nuances; - there is no hall sensor (why was it necessary to save on this penny thing? ); - there are no magnets that could hold the lid of the book case; - raw software.
