Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 - user opinions and reviews
- Help Me Decide
- Ej9
As my name clearly states - help me decide. The three contenders - RN8, RN8 Pro, and Redmi Note 9/Pro. The three Xiaomi hotshots. Before i continue, I AM NOT INTO GAMING. So please don't give me your advice based on game usage. I am looking for a phone for HEAVY social media usage, photography, and for business. i Will be downloading A LOT OF APPS FOR BUSINESS AND SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT. Also that can handle two sim cards extremely well, and a long battery life. It's that simple. I have a little experience with the RNote 7 and it was excellent. But now Xiaomi has since released a few others so i want to keep up with the more current ones. Cost is not an issue. I also want a nice design and the two RN8s are much better looking than the RN9. It's that simple so give me your best advice. I have until 2 days before i purchase it. :)

How is the network performance in this phone? In my area every phone struggles to score a good cellular reception because of poor network of my operator.
