            Asnaf K, 21 May 2020I bought a phone for redmi note 8 the yesterday. But now it... moreSame case. I've been using this for a year. Light use only. But recently. Don't know is it the miui 11 updat the battery drain really fast. Most of which when the phone is idle. I only get like 5 hours of use (Facebook - no video, WhatsApp, shopee, no game time) and the rest of the battery is when it's idle. That's really bad. Any solutions?

                -camera is booting slow for me.

                -battery is 8h SoT for me, no battery saver enabled.

                -you have to disable vibration / haptic feedback for the keyboard (gboard) itself.

                -Updates? What updates, LOL.

                -If you remove WhatsApp from Autostart, you will never see notifications again.

                -full of useless bloat you can't remove


                Conclusion: Second biggest mistake of my life.

                  khalidmahmud, 12 Oct 2020excuse me, I have been using it for two months, and it is v... moreI agree with u.
                  I have been using a redmi note 8 ( 6gb + 128 gb) for 5 months now.

                  I had brought this phone( Redmi note 8) on 25 may 2020 just because my budget was tight.

                  Can I can say this is the worst decision I have ever made.

                  This phone has several problems that I noticed within a month like :-

                  > very slow when compared to other phones released in 2019 and even phones released in 2018 are better than Redmi note 8

                  > the camera always has a issues ( the 8 mp rear camera takes too long to focus the image and still gives a partially blur image)

                  > the battery saver mode works when it wants to work ( sometimes the battery drains like hell.... It loses all the battery within 3 hrs)

                  > when the Viberations are kept off, it still viberates when I use the on screen keypad.

                  > also u must keep using the phone cleaner every now and them else ur apps will start working slow or the screen might hang or the apps simply closes

                  > sometimes the phone screen just goes off when u bring ur finger close to the screen.

                  >U have to wait for a long time as Xiaomi just don't care about timely updates
                  ( redmi note 8 has still not received MIUI 12 update and Android 10 which we had to get in May 2020)

                  >And Xiaomi hasn't even included Redmi note 8 in the list of Xiaomi devices that will be getting Android 11 ( phones like Oneplus 6/ 6t which were released in 2018 are getting Android 11)

                  I am fed up with this phone

                          just like other Xiaomi phone with the UI.

                          that's what bad.
                          but I don't find it annoying tbh because usually I have no lag in opening several applications.

                                    Actually is not a bad phone, but the connectivity issues make the phone actually trash, and there's no fix for that
