Can I streame video to a big screen as like monitor with HDMI cable? Can it deliver video output?

    I should add to my last comment. Why do I use earbuds with my HiFi? It is because I have a hearing loss, and my earbuds have an app which allows me to customise the frequency profile I receive, using a graphic equaliser. So a good audio phone is very useful. I can also receive good audio directly from my NAS, using the Redmi phone only as a container of a (not wonderful Asustor) control app.

      I am mostly satisfied with the phone, but disappointed in the lack of further updates. My one big criticism relates to something your reviews never appear to mention about almost every phone - that is the audio capability. With the massive use of earbuds, and a growing interest in higher quality Bluetooth I find this phone hopeless. The audio is low quality, and delivers to only one earbud - not stereo. My Xiaomi Pad 6 tablet delivers good 24bit/192KHz audio, but is much less convenient to use.

      With the tablet I get high quality audio delivered wirelessly from my HiFi (higher quality than Bluetooth can match), then high quality Bluetooth to my earbuds. I don't live in my personal bubble outside of home, so using a phone's mobile capability is of no interest, other than for occasional txts and calls.

      One day I will get a better phone (Redmi Note 12 Pro, or an Xperia, or a OnePlus) that takes audio seriously.

        Using is since 3.5 years, below are points:
        Camera: Still good pictures captured in 64 MP
        Battery: drains more quickly, but can stay for a day with moderate use, and takes around 1.5 hrs to fully charge
        Processor: Initially it was good, but it lags now in daily activity
        Cons: microphone doesn't work properly,
        In reboot mode it directly goes on factory reset instead of restarting

            I'm using this phone until now, it's a very good phone, but Xiaomi stops updating their models after 3 years, and my Redmi note 8 pro stopped receiving updates in April 2022. I want to get a new phone, maybe an s24+, that will be a huge upgrade for me

              Am still using it since October 2019, and that's almost 3 years this coming month and still in good condition event the battery remains the original. Though am using it with COD Mobile the battery still in good health.

                              Respect, I wanted to praise the xiaomi company and congratulate one of the best phones and it is this redmi note 8 pro. I've had it almost since it came out. I would like to ask you to give it at least one more update to android 12 and miui 13 or what you think is best? I wanted to change it, but I didn't have an even better phone in my hands, and you are better, maybe only by 5-10%. this one has never bugged me or had any problems, the only thing is that the battery has weakened a bit, but after more than two years it is still holding up well. thanks in advance your loyal customer.

                                This phone is best for its prise only problem I can find is that it's software it's not bad but its a little buggy. It's camara is good. It is not a gaming phone but it can play bgm in ultra graphics and irs very smooth with gyroscope. I can give it 4/5 experience
