Ankit JadonThe Redmi Note series has been very important for Xiaomi and the most selling phone brand. The Redmi Note 3 was the first model sold in huge numbers, helping the Chinese smartphone giant cement its position in the Indian market. Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 7 Pro is another highlight of the series, according to the company. Launched in February earlier this year, the Redmi Note 7 Pro offered impressive performance and good cameras at an aggressive price. Naturally, this puts a lot of pressure on its successor, the Redmi Note 8 Pro. While this new smartphone has been launched nine months after its predecessor, it claims to be better in every measurable way. Will the Redmi Note 8 Pro become the new yardstick for its segment? We put it to the test to answer that.

Verdict
While many consider the 64MP back camera the distinct advantage for the Redmi Note 8 Pro, I trust it’s the consideration of the MediaTek Helio G90T SoC. The all-new octa-center chipset accompanies genuine capability, and that shows while you’re pushing the gadget or playing substantial titles like PUBG Mobile or Call of Duty Mobile. In obvious Xiaomi style, the telephone doesn’t hold back on any viewpoint either be it show or battery making it a true-blue all-round package.
