So far no problems! Arrived today, I simply tossed my US AT&T sim straight into the phone, turned it on and it automatically detected the network during startup, and set up no problems! Downloaded my apps (plus a launcher, the stock one isn’t for me) and I’m rocking! For the price, I’m not at all disappointed. Of course it’s not on par with 2020 flagships, but for a budget, it’s more than perfect. Came with a clear case, but I bought my own to go with it.

I upgraded to this phone from a 4 year old mid level phone. My biggest issue with that one was battery life, so that was a big consideration for me in my new device. After doing a bunch of searching here on Amazon for an unlocked device, I found this one to have the best combination of cost to feature, after doing plenty of research on the processor.I’ve had the unit for a little over a month now, and I can say I am very pleased with the performance and battery life on this phone. I am not a heavy user of my cell phone as my main media consumption device, and with my personal average use, a 100% charge will last me up to 3 days. My previous phone was a daily charger.The size of the screen is great, even if it doesn’t have the best brightness or contrast, for most people it’s going to be good enough. Same with the camera setup, while not absolutely the best thing ever, it is excellent and takes very clear shots. The speaker is loud enough for normal use, and the other audio options (Bluetooth and Headphone Jack) have good output as well. The interface is fast, and feels snappy under normal use.I am is the US on the AT&T network, and had no issues setting up the phone with the micro sim from my previous phone, and didn’t have to do anything special to get the unit setup and working. There is some bloatware on the phone that you can’t remove, but you can ignore, which I would suggest. I would recommend this device to anyone that doesn’t ‘need’ a flagship or apple device.

This phone is a beast! I cannot believe the price because I can match this up against my daughter’s brand new Samsung feature for feature.Came beautifully packaged and ready to go right out of the box. I took the card out of my old phone and popped it in and it was ready to go.If you’re on the fence do not hesitate. It is a beautiful phone and works like the most high-end brand.I love it!!!

First Chinese phone other than a flagship Samsung and iPhone in over 6 years. couldn’t be happier with this Redmi Note 8 Pro. Feels sleek in my hands, easy to navigate, not a ton of bloat ware, and battery lasts over 24 hours in between charges at least for the week I’ve had it.It’s running Android 9.0 and has already received 1 system update which is nice moving forward. The camera is better than my old Samsung Galaxy 8 which is saying quite a bit.The DDR is 6gb which is less than the newest Galaxy 10 at 8gb, but this phone is blazing fast. Definitely gonna stick with xiachow for future phones

This phone is amazing for the price. The fingerprint reader is extremely snappy, scrolling is buttery smooth, and it’s lightning fast. Not to mention it’s a beautiful piece of tech. I got the green model. My service is with Cricket Wireless in rural Maryland and I’m getting all 5 bars of 4G LTE. I’m truly impressed by this phone and would recommend it to anyone looking for a $220 phone with $750 specs. I’m a happy camper.Update: After a few weeks using this phone I must say that it gets more amazing every day. I keep finding features while exploring the settings. I wasn’t expecting an app drawer but in the settings there is an app drawer option. I’m still a happy camper.

Everything checks out. The IMEI # is legit. Got here a full week before the arrival date unscratched and gorgeous. If you’re from Puerto Rico and you’re wondering if it works with Claro, it does. Provided you get the international version. This phone is utterly gorgeous. I love it. + No forced bloatware. Witch is awesome. The only bummer is that it came with the European charging brick. Not the U.S. one. But I honestly don’t care that much about that last part since I have other charging bricks. The phone is great. Get it if you can . The pics I posted i took with the camera of the phone.

This is, hands down, the best phone I have ever owned. The battery is awesome, the camera is really good, though there is a bit of a learning curve, the screen is great. The only thing I’ve noticed, sometimes, when you are using WiFi, the phone will not ring, and you don’t even get a missed call. Four months in, that is, literally, my only complaint. Buy this phone. It’s a great phone,band the green back is gorgeous! I will at some point but the next, or the next after that, iteration of this phone. It’s that good.

I’ve had this phone for 3 days now and that is good enough to provide an initial impression.In summary, this is a great piece of tech available at a very reasonable price. But let me elaborate so that people reading this review can form their own opinionsFirst, I will talk about the looks and the build quality It is great, the back in particular is so good looking and it reflects light differently at various angles. Both front and back come with gorilla glass 5 so that should be durable, the front looks very clean and neat. If I have to find a fault, the only one I can think of is that the side rim is made out of plastic, it is not metal. First of all, it’s not easy to notice it. Secondly, it shouldn’t cause much concern since the phone still appears to be very sturdy and premium. Overall, good build quality for the price.Screen quality and brightness The screen is IPS LCD so obviously it doesn’t have the deep blacks like an AMOLED screen. It doesn’t even have the kind of contrast that AMOLES has. But, overall it is still a very high quality screen. For comparison, I used iPhone XR which has an IPS LCD display and it matches or actually slightly beats it in my opinion. Outdoor visibility is also very good because it has more than decent brightness. So again, for the price, this is good.Software and Performance It comes with a Android version 9 out of the box and it installs a security update immediately after booting up for the first time. Yes Android 10 is out now and we should ideally have that. Hopefully, we would get Android 10 on this phone soon through Mi UI new version. But none of this takes away the software experience. It is good, it is smooth and nice. So far I haven’t experienced any slowness or lags. It is doing a good job. I installed poco installer which has been very helpful as it is better than Mi UI and has an app drawer which Mi UI doesn’t.Performance is also good, it comes with a dedicated game mode that you can use to bump up the performance while playing games. Overall, very snappy and can play performance intensive games like subway surfers and asphalt easily. People have complained it heats up. I have noticed even iPhones heating up when you play such games so it’s not really a concernCameras It comes with 4 different cameras at the back with the primary one being 64 MP. I haven’t used the cameras as much yet but have been able to try portrait mode, regular mode, 64 MP mode, wide angle mode and night time photography. You can say that it is not at par with google or iPhone or Samsung phones but again for the price it is quite good. Especially the wide angle camera has a nice field of view which allows it to take some great photos. I just snapped a picture of 40 people standing in a group from up close using wide angle camera and it came out very nice. For night time, the camera takes some time to take a snap as it is gathering as much light as possible to bring out a nice photo. So overall it is very good. Happy with the pictures so far. I have iPhone XS Max and it doesn’t have wide angle and night mode so getting those capabilities here has been good. Also, the portrait mode is good and it produces good quality images with good blur effect and reasonably good edge detection. Regarding the selfie camera, the performance seemed ok, not great. It gives a bit of an artificial effect which is not preferred. But that’s the only issue I have been able to find so farConnectivity to network I have T-mobile and this phone works flawlessly on this network. Upload / download speed are very good. On WiFi you it works very well.Battery and charging speedIt comes with a monster 4500 mAmp battery and damn it is good. I have already reached screen on time of almost 6 hours and have more than 20% left. I have done everything, played heavy games, watched a lot of YouTube videos, made phone calls, sent messages, browsed web. You get an 18W charger in the box but I haven’t been able to use it as it’s not a North American charger. I used another 27W charger that came with the Essential phone and charging speed is excellent.Other additions There are a few other things that this phone brings in which possibly other phones don’t . IR blaster, I used it and it works flawlessly on Samsung TVs. It also has micro SD expansion slot which I intend to use very soon with fast storage and retrieval. It comes with a case which is good and you don’t need to buy it separately before the phone arrives.And lastly it comes with a 3.5 mm headphone jack which is also great. Hardly any phones come ms with this now a days.Overall very happy with the way this phone is shaping up, until nowPlease see some pictures of the phone for better insights

This cell phone is the best I have ever had in my life. I used to have Samsung cell phone before years ago so as other brand name phones I’ve got from T-Mobile and these worked exactly for a year and were not usable right when the warranty was expiring.I got tired of this and bought my first off-brand cell phone – ZTE ZMAX – it was a great phone for 2015, much better than Samsung I had prior to it for the fraction of the cost! It worked for 2 years until the battery got fully discharged and I wasn’t able to charge it ever again. I then bought Huawei Honor 6x and had it for 3 years. It worked just fine until it started acting with major delays, so I knew it was time to get a new phone.After multiple hours of research I decided to go with Remi Note 8. Thanks to “frequency check” site I knew I had to get a Global version. I highly recommend to check the phone model and your provider to see how many bands will be supported. I have T-Mobile and any International Version of this phone wasn’t working for T-Mobile LTE.Unfortunately Amazon didn’t have any Global versions of Redmi Note 8 in stock, so I wend with less memory and Redmi Not 8 Pro. It looks like I overpaid a little because overall prices were high (I blame coronavirus for that lol), but let me tell you – I didn’t regret my decision even once because Redmi Note 8 Pro is AMAZING!It feels great – solid, nice, works smooth! I just love it.It takes great pictures. Not as great (real looking) as my Canon Mark II takes, but much better than other phones. Selfies are also great. The connection is the same as I had with Honor 6x (which supported more LTE bands by the way). I experienced a lost of connection while driving on Interstate as well as in multiple story office building, but it didn’t bother me as it happened few times really.The screen feels great to touch. The colors are amazing. Fingerprint scanner on the back of the phone works like a charm. Face recognition feature also works great. Fast browser. Battery life is also great, but my old Honor 6x was giving me full day of usage on one charge. I understand this phone is a huge upgrade from Honor 6x overall because it’s been 3 years between these phones which is a huge time frame in technical world, but Redmi Note 9 Pro amazes me every day and I am not even using it to full capacity.I’ve got 64 gb one as the price difference for about $45 between this and 128 gb didn’t do it for me. I am getting extra memory card which will last me for the duration of this phone’s life. After all my old Honor 6x had 32 gb and 64 gm external card and I still was good on memory after 3 years on regular usage.My only doubt is the color. I’ve got it in forest green and it’s beautiful, but I wanted it in white. Unfortunately the description for white didn’t indicate it’s a Global version so I wend with green. It still looks pretty cool! Included silicone cover is a bonus. My charger came without US adapter, so I ended up buying 2 for around $5 and now have capability of charging my phone super fast.If you still thinking of buying it… considering newer Redmi Note is about to be announced, don’t waste time – this phone is pretty amazing! Hoping it will last for few years.
