          Hi all,

          Considering getting either Redmi Note 8 Pro or Mi Note 10 Lite. I am leaning towards Note 8 Pro because it is much cheaper and as a light user, find it hard to justify paying extra for the Note 10 Lite. My only concern is with the reported heat issue on this phone. I don't game much and will use the phone mainly for watching videos, will the phone get too hot for comfort? Need some answers. Thanks.

            xSavagex, 15 Jul 2020I just bought this phone. Is there any problem or the phone... moreNo there is no problem in charging it with 25w charger. It will only charge the phone fast if it supports fast charging.

            I tried to charge my RN8PRO with OnePlus 6T's charger. But MI Original charger seem to charge the phone much faster as it supports fast charging, which OnePlus didn't. Compatibility issue thats it.

              Rn8p, 15 Jul 2020Can I charge this phone at any percentage or I should alway... moreYou can start charging at any percentage, perfectly safe.. recommended is at 10% to 95% & below are some of my tips..it is everything you can do apart from flashing custom rom.

              This is how i fixed my RN8PRO battery draining issues, and it worked for me. I had battery issues after upgrading to Android 10, my SoT got as low as 7hrs but after following certain YouTube videos & XDA website im now getting 11hrs of SoT as it was before. Hope this works for you too. Here's what i did:
              I cannot share direct link of XDA as it may not be in policy of GSMArena, I think. Don't get flowed by negative comments for this procedure & just do it.

              Main Thing :

              I used ''XiaomiADBFastbootTools''(ADB Uninstaller) to uninstall the following default bloatware installed on my phone. Such as..

              Analytics
              Android Accessibility suite
              app vault
              browser

              joyose
              MSA (It is a junk ad application, remove ASAP!)
              Market feedback agent
              mi browser
              mi credit
              mi drop
              mi pay
              mi video
              mi wallpaper
              miuiDaemon
              Music
              PAI
              PartnerBookmarks
              Quick Apps
              Quick Ball
              Scanner
              WMServices
              Weather

              Uninstall all these without any second thought. My phone is working much better after uninstalling all these pre installed apps. After doing this, i saw sudden increase in my battery efficiency be it battery backup or SoT.

              During testing i got two days of battery backup & around 10hrs of SoT from 90% charge to 5% charge. And now from 100% charge to currently I'm at 60% with SoT of exactly 6hrs 42min.
              OMG i wish i would have shared Screenshots here.

              Secondary things i did was:
              - Enabled Dark Mode
              - Disabled Auto Start option for all apps
              - In battery settings, i enabled 'clear cache when device is locked - upto 5 minutes'
              - Using Nova Launcher (Prime) - APK Downloaded
              - Force stopped apps which i don't use frequently such as Facebook.
              - Using Firefox as my default browser.
              - Restricted background app activity.

              Hope this helps :)

                I just bought this phone. Is there any problem or the phone could be damaged if i'll charge it with my Galaxy A70 25w charger?

                    Not for gaming or heavy use but for regular browsing, watching movie and expecting Good Loud speakers. Which one should I buy?

                    Samsung M21 (6 GB, 128GB) = INR 15999 (Readily available with exchange of my old phone)

                    or

                    Redmi Note 8 Pro (6 GB, 128GB) = INR 16999 (Readily available with exchange of my old phone)

                    or

                    Redmi Note 9 Pro (6 GB, 128GB) = INR 16999 (Have to wait for the next sale on 21-July-2020)

                              OptimusPrime, 15 Jul 2020Which one is better? Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro or Huawei P30?Flagship (P30) vs Midranger (RN8P).

                              Spec wise: P30. If you can grab it for lower price than starting then take it.

                              Still in my opionion RN8P is best phone for its price - which is much lower than P30.
