Honest review, 07 May 2020Does anyone have dust problem in camera lense? My phone's l... moreWell... there seems to be some problem regarding the adhesive they used in camera module. So dust can get inside the camera module and settle on the inner part. However, not every RN8 seem to have this issue.
What you can do is to contact Mi service center and they will clean the camera glass from inside and apply new adhesive BUT there is no guarantee that it won't happen again...
Bottom line: Manufacturing defect and you happen to be one of the unfortunate ones.

It crashed my phone once and often stopped / paused when I locked it (it's supposed to run in the background). It's MIUI, I'm not using this POS anymore because of all the problems.

        Please help me before I throw this sh*tty phone on the ground. I just can't make google maps work normally (if it does). location services is apps are awful! also youtube tells me I'm offline when I'm using mobile net (works ok on WiFi). besides these problems, this phone is just NOT user friendly (phone, messaging, notifications etc.). Imagine, how stupid man looks changing Iphone 6s+ on this piece of sh*t...
        Sorry for bad words.

          Ok after about a week playing with this phone;

          I was getting a not bad SOT about 8-9 hours per charge using only 4G in 12 hours on/standby as mentioned in my previous post.

          It's quite ok with me but it's kind of irritating when seeing the battery % decrease faster compare to my previous redmi note 5

          So the solutions are;

          In Connection & sharing > turn off cast & printing
          In Account & sync > turn of any sync that you dont need
          In Google>Security> turn off find my device
          You may also turn of find my device in your mi account too if you want
          In Password & Security> Location>scanning> turn off WiFi & Bluetooth scanning

          You may also turn off everything that you don't need one by one by accessing the menus

          It helps , happy trying

            games keep reconnecting when I got strong wifi , needs to transfer to another network (5GHz to 2.4Ghz) or vice versa in order to reconnect . Tried to reset the wifi settings turn off the wifi assistance but it just keeps getting worse. If anyone had issues like mine and you found a fix to it ? please let me know so that I can fix my Redmi note 8.

                                    I have been using Xiaomi for about 5 years , more than 10 models

                                    I changed 4 smartphones during this lockdown. From

                                    Redmi note 5
                                    Redmi 7a
                                    Redmi 8
                                    Refmi note 8

                                    I was lucky enough not to have any major problems during the whole Xiaomi experience.

                                    For this model (RN8) too i didn't encounter any of the problems mentioned here by others

                                    Yes the battery behaviour is somehow noticeable.
                                    I am not a gamer, only about an hour a day, other usages are browsing, youtube and messaging.
                                    I managed to get about 9 hours SOT from 9am to 11pm of any day using only 4G.

                                    I have got better standby and SOT in Redmi note 5 with the same 4000mah batt.(10 hours SOT or more)

                                    For redmi 7a & redmi 8 I've got even more amazing battery(5000mah)
