1. Font:
The setting is redundant at Accessibility, just change the font size at Setting>Display>System Font>Text Size, you can choose until XXL.
2. Alarm Ringtone
After you set your alarm, tick on Additional setting>More ringtones>Choose local ringtone>File Manager, then it should list out all the compatible ringtone/MP3/M4A, including those in external SD card, but it is not group in folder.

Anonymous, 16 Jun 2020Redmi 7 exceeeds Redmi 8 by a landslide in performanceSince i have redmi 7 ... I believe redmi 8 is far better based on comments section over here...

Redmi 7 are lag, shuttering, not well optimized the full potential of sd632 & battery is just ok.. the only thing why i picked redmi 7 as my backup phone because the price.. i got it for $60 for new set & sealed box.

IMX363 is the best, and Omnivision is worst of the lot. I suspect the most newer stock for the global version are Omnivisions.

Have this phone for a week... Could someone help advise?

1. I used to use Big Font app to increase the font size and it works fine. However, it does not seem to work with Redmi 8. (I guess because it does not use normal Android...)

2. I tried Settings -> Display -> Text size -> select XXL and also tried Accessibility -> Display size and select L.

What is the difference between these two? (They seem redundant to me...)

3. After setting both, the font is still too small. Are there any other way to increase the font size?

4. I tried to select the song for alarm. Ringtone -> Choose local ringtone

If I select Music or File Manager, it only list the songs in the local storage....

How can I select the song in SD Card?

Thank you very much!!!

Redmi 8 by June 2020, from my opinion is the best low price, middle performance smartphone. It had a ton of battery. The proccesor also quite good for this day game, but for 'heavy' one, i recommend to set the graphics quality to 'low-normal'. As for the camera, its pretty decent for its price. The charging speed is also quite fast. Lil more than 2 hrs, with usage around 6-7 hrs (gaming-rest). So far i've never encountered any problem. i just had this phone for 4 month, so the warranty still on and the prbolem still hid themselves. If you wondering, I RECCOMEND this phone for daily uses. And if it somehow broken, you know Redmi had a ton of spare part in after market. So the repair will not costly. My Redmi 5 battery problem only need $10 to fix.
