Editorial report
Xiaomi Redmi 8 technical sheet
The Xiaomi Redmi 8 suits buyers who put battery capacity first and can accept compromises in camera and performance. Its 5,000 mAh battery has more capacity than most phones launched around the same time; 18 W charging is average for its time.
The 6.22-inch IPS LCD display reaches 400 nits peak brightness, among the weakest figures of its time. Its 270 ppi density is also worse than most. Storage tops out at 64 GB, below average for phones of the period. Its AnTuTu score of 89,903 is worse than that of most phones launched around then, and its overall performance is worse than most as well. The rear camera uses a 1/2.55″ sensor, below average for its time, and the camera overall is below average. Connectivity also falls below average among phones from that period.
Battery capacity is the Redmi 8’s clearest strength, while the display brightness, storage, camera and performance ask buyers to make concessions. With a NeoScore of 3.8, the Xiaomi Redmi 8 is best suited to those seeking a large-capacity battery who place less emphasis on camera performance and speed.
