    I have had this Redmi Note 8 since January 2020. Recently, about a month, the external memory started not being recognized and it says wrong SD card; do you want to format it? It's as if it has ruined it. Because I put a new blank one and it did the same after turning the phone off and later on.
    I also have issues with Whatsapp; it started not ringing when I receive calls or texts. And it does it intermittently.
    The battery is still great.

      My RN8 was working perfect for quite some time. However after updating to MIUI it became so slow. Currently I am at 12.0.6.0 Stable. Now it is asking me to upgrade to 12.5.2.0. Please advise shall I update? Will it improve the situation, or its like going from fire to frying pan?

            I am using this phone since March 2020 at the start of the Covid pandemic. Still goes find. No overheat. The battery is about 60 % of life. For the price I paid of 180 $ is fine. Gorilla glass 5 in front and back shines. Good phone for the price

              I have been using this since 2020 Febuary and it works fine wihtout any issue. With MIUI 12 I see that battery drains than MIUI 10 But, when compared to other androids it still holds up well. Only issue I recently got is,even though I'm careful with the phone and the button is physically fine & clicks.Sometimes power button suddenly becomes like a side mounted fingerprint and work on a small tap or touch. It comes and goes time to time. No any other issue with my one.

                  The phone is very slow after a year of purchasing it. The MUI update is frequent which I believe it just slows down the phone. Internet / Wifi connectivity is very poor unlike other Android phone. Not good for 8-10k price. Redmi note 5 is the best and the fastest.

                                    This has to be the worst phone I've ever use. Charging issues, storage problems, camera crashes. I'll never use any phones with MIUI anymore
