    Cyberchum, 21 Mar 2020If price is not a factor, go for S10e. It's a no-brainer. You can buy 2 redmi note 8 pro with s10 e's price

            BlackHatORG, 21 Mar 2020Weird, I have call recorder on my Xiaomi mi Max 3 MIUI11It's also on redmi note 7 series, but this is about redmi note 8 pro. Totally different series and models. There is no call recording function here, as it uses Google phone app, not regular MIUI phone app.

Not just that it's a third party after market solution, it also has no official dev support.

                                  you forgot the deal breakers . the phone can't be in vibrate mode it's rather silent or ringing . once in awhile the phone got too hot and the battery was just being sucked drained so fast and i wasn't using any apps what so ever it kept doing that for about 5 min . the ultra wide cam doesn't have any focus at all and it doesn't have Manual focus in pro mode . the apps are very bad like the note app doesn't rotate at all . when i add contact via WhatsApp it doesn't get added to contacts i don't know if that happens with all apps or not . and many many things i don't remember now . this review doesn't look like long term review

                                    The problem with this phone is the interface and its cheap LCD screen. I wish it had an AMOLED screen like Samsung phones with its fast chipset "Helio G90t" would be fantastic! plus some apps don't work on it, like Call Recorder.

                                      The review was long, not long-term.
                                      My Redmi Note 8 Pro is good for general use but its camera fails me at times. I feel like my camera is failing already. One day I wasn't able to shoot any clear pictures, it was very blurred and was just so so saturated. Saturation is a problem with the camera but so do its performance in lowlight.
                                      Without the phone cover the phone is slippery, and yes, it did slipped from a little more than 1m height and the glass back shattered. Luckily the big camera bulge was unaffected.
