          I have mine right now with GCam and it totally kills Galaxy A50s and old iPhones because of it.

            But believe me, this phone is highly recommended over u20 because it checks all the boxes for the price.

                This review is still on MIUI 10, so the performance difference is big.

                  It's a flagship sensor, just the software that is weak.

                        Just to give perspective of the performance of the SD665, my Redmi 5 Plus with SD625 could perfectly run CODM smoothly, but graphics are low.
                        My friend's Redmi Note 7 with SD660 runs the same game a little better with medium.

                            I read somewhere that MIUI 11 will be ad free. Is it??

                              worst camera from recent Xiaomis, very poor detail and dynamic range

                                Anonymous08082019, 28 Nov 2019I thought the RN8 uses the Samsung GM1 sensor?according to aida64 app, it uses samsung isocell smkgm2 not sony imx.

                                  I am satisfied with the overall quality to be honest.

                                      The IMD is shown to be the highest of this whole series after Note 5....

                                        The Samsung Galaxy M30 does NOT have a faster chipset than the Redmi Note 8, in fact the Exynos 7904 is slower than the Snapdragon 665
