It was a good phone at the beginning...maybe cause I was so excited to have a new phone. But before the 1st year of having it, bugs and crashes started annoying me.
Nowadays, after recent updates the phone no longer has split screen and that's a shame. Much worse I dunno why it can't even keep two apps running in background !
The camera quality was something that made me love this phone but now it's been reduced so much and I can't buy it!
It forced me to install gcam, not as fast as the main app but much better.
I myself couldn't get used to miui. I'll change my phone as soon as I can afford a good one.

        Got this for $90 during last year 11/11 sales and it performs according to its specs and well beyond my money spent. Now i can't buy a new phone because it'll be wasteful and unwise. Please, faster give me problems my lovely RN8! 😂

            Using this phone for almost 1 years:
            The last problem was endless boot loop without any solution or support from xiaomi and there's no really any fix even in xda developer website.
            The daily use is very bad experience too, the phone keeps lagging and stopped even I'm not using too much app just like using Instagram and YouTube and TikTok.
            The wifi keeps disconnecting I have no idea why, while all other devices is connected.
            No recommend at all.

                In redmi note 8 face locks issues because we are use face lock for secure but one problem in face lock. Me add my face in face lock is done then I check is working or not but is working. After some time my small brother also trying to open face lock and is open. How it's possible I can't believe this. And is big problem in redmi note 8. I kindly request to change and update redmi mobile.

                      The major issue is maybe the poor signal reception. My friend use redmi note 5 and has the same provider but my phone keeps on loading when playing youtube / browsing while my friend doesn't have the same issue. Other than that this works fairly fine. (I'm not a tech geek anyways so dont really use the phone other than texting, browsing & some sort of thing). Oh and the build quality is also goood. My babies dropped this phone many timesss but no issue found.

                          masum, 27 Apr 2021I hate this... It has so much issue including weak signal, No real color in camera, frame drop... morethe weak signal reception is mostly the only and major problem of this phone. it has a poor signal reception for calls in remote areas, thus it has very poor call quality. that's why i had to let go of the phone and bought a nokia. please tell xiaomi that while making a phone they should not forget the basic and primary aspect of any phone thats is calls and call quality.

                                  Battery don't last enough. 100 to 99 % in just 20 sec. 100 to 80 % in 30 min. After Update battery back up is distorted. There is no need of 48 MP camera, photo quality is not up to the mark. For price ₹-11500 it is not a good phone.

                                    Hate it every time there's an update. With the latest update, it's stuck on landscape mode, WILL NOT AUTO ROTATE! 😡🤬

It happens it was on the ... moreJust press long power button at least 3 minutes. Then unppress the power button and do nothing to your phone for 3-5 minutes. Then try plug in your charger, wait... If nothing comes up, press power button for 3 minutes. This my experience.
                                      Good luck.
