The fact that the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro dropped fron the top 10 by daily interest by GSMArena is making me curious, I thought more people were interested in the phone but it seems like not really... Now that more phones are released, this will be getting less interest but idk just curious how and why for some reason...

Moch, 21 Mar 2020Hi is it true that lcd panel is better using light theme compare to dark one? They said dark t... moreYes, that's true. The main reason for higher power consumption is that there's no power savings done when using dark mode on LCD panels and users having dark mode unnecessarily cranks-up the brightness just to see the content on bright daylight environment compared to those that uses light theme. The only advantage of dark mode is at night for less eye strain.

i got it today and... moreThere is none. Xiaomi's software "might" have been banned or not approved by Google for whatever undisclosed reason. Xiaomi is just complying to Google when they started using these Google apps, sadly, this is the only way Xiaomi can do if they wanted to release new phones.
The upside:
You'll be able to sync your messages and contacts to whichever manufacturer phones when you plan to change phones in the future and decided to not buy Xiaomi.

Well in my opinion, Google Dial and Contacts and Messages isn't a huge compromise to me, any phone i buy, I don't care if it hasn't got a call recorder or limited options, im still fine with it and i don't see the point in returning the phone because of this, this is still a decent phone, no matter the software.

What a disappointment !!!
This phone is reviewed very high in GSM Arena,
i got it today and now i am realizing that the MIUI doe not include its own dial, contact and sms app.
It uses the google dial app, google contacts ...
why ??
Is there a solution to this ?
I dont want to share my contacts with google
Google dial and contact app is horrible
I can not do a dedicated ringtone for contact groups for example
does anyone fixed this issue please ?

I don't use much data on my phone , my problem starts when I change my old phone and start to use Redmi Note 8 Pro. I tried to reset network settings but after that phone automatically sat up access point names using hs.vodafone.ie also . Provide operator said I have to delete it myself from my phone which I can't. I did many ways to do it and it is not possible . It seems to be set up with the phone and I don't have an access to change it. My monthly plan is 20 GB data for free. That is really strange situation for me. I asked my friends and they were in a shock as they never heard about that situation before.

2. What is your plan, do you have GBs or MBs of data or do you just charge money for data?
3. Try resetting your APN(s), it will give you the Default APN your Vodafone provider uses
4. Are you sure there isn't any apps in the background wasting mobile data?
5. Do you watch YouTube (Or videos on let's say Facebook or Instagram) a lot while on data or Browsing things that take a lot of MBs to load? Because those tend to also waste data depending on per MB

Moch, 21 Mar 2020Hi is it true that lcd panel is better using light theme compare to dark one? They said dark t... moreUhh I don't think that that's true. If I won't be back with a new comment then what I'm saying is true. LCDs doesn't care about color. It's not like the SAMOLED ones. The SAMOLED ones just don't turn on (the pixels) if it is dark (true black). LCDs doesn't care about this. They are always on and they don't care what color they display. It's the same thing. You may find dark mode a little bit better but with an insignificant improvement. So in conclusion, it doesn't matter what color it displays, it consumes the same amount of battery, that's why it doesn't even matter if you have a black / white background or a rainbow one.
