Bought this when it first release, now after 4 years of heavy use, the phone is a lagfest and don't get me started on the ghost touch. Mediocre performance, bad camera, battery drains faster, this gave me the best 4 years of a having a budget buster but now it's time for an upgrade sadly not to redmi again after every update their os gets worse. Solid 5.5\10 an average phone for an average man :(

    I still use this phone. Battery is very good, but it gets worse every year. I give it a 7/10 because it is getting bad.

        As for me, this is my first Xaomi phone and will be the last. I will never recommend Xaomi phones based on my experience. Ghost touch, ghost switch off and on, hanged frequently, importantly at incoming calls, press and attempt to navigate internet or check mails, slow to process apps, and even to dial a number takes 2 minutes for sim option t pop up. Poor internet and network strength, drains battery very fast- less than 8 hours on heavy usage.
        Succinctly put, Xaomi Redmi 8 is an extremely poor phone based on my experience in the past 2 years.

            Been using since launching 2019, battery was 5 star
            The only matter is need to BOOST time to time
            So you will feel better performance

                          Xiaomi added too many good features to this phone, making it too good for its price range. Mainly: Water-repellent, gorilla glass, Dual Pixel camera, microSD, large battery. All this in a relatively small frame.
                          Sadly, they fixed that on the next models.

                            Wow it's been 4 years with this phone, its still running and battery seems to be at 70% life. which is insanely good for a phone battery, back then batteries would last 1 year and have 10%
                            the issues i have after 4 years are;
                            seems to overheat now
                            > display died 5 months ago(due to falling multiple times and never broke!) replaced with a techno screen
                            > camera glass has multiple scratches so pics are worse.
                            >bit slow but doing better than the realme 5i i got for my mum.
                            >battery isnt swollen at all..cough cough samsung.., looks perfectly flat. well done Xiaomi.

                                Xiaomi stopped the security updates on this phone at 1/9/2021.. (Global)
                                Latest update was with android 10 and miui 12.5.2...

                                Also wanted to add that this snapdragon 439 chipset mormally supported 5ghz wifi band and nfc functions, but xiaomi did not put this functions on this phone...

                                The antutu score found online..
                                116223.

                                Also the reception on this phone is not too good compared to other phones..

                                The wifi at 2,4 Ghz tops out at 72Mbps link speed, with true speed ~50Mbps...
                                There is no support for 40mhz channel.. This is a software limitation i suppose.. Only 1x1 stream support.

                                But except all the above, it is still a good phone.. For some time more i guess..

                                  My only issue with this phone is no signal at my home. I use dual simcard with different telcos and both have no signal compared to my other phones. Anyone having this problem?
