Redmi Note 8 Review- Design:

The look and feel of the Redmi Note 8 are very familiar, as you may have seen in a number of Xiaomi handsets, including its predecessor, the Redmi Note 7. However, the Note 8 seems to be a more polished and upgraded version of the Note 7. You get a flat back with a gradient finish, which gives the phone a youthful look. The rear plate is made of glass, which gives this handset quite a premium feel and resistance to scratches. Despite packing in a large display, it sits right in the palm comfortably and is easy to operate with one hand. A fingerprint scanner sits in the centre and the quad-camera module, with a noticeable bump, is positioned vertically at the top left of the back panel. The primary lens has a silver lining around its lens to distinguish itself from the rest of the sensors. Volume rockers and a power button are placed on the right, and the left side houses a dual-SIM tray with a dedicated microSD card slot. Up at the top, you get an IR blaster and a noise-cancellation microphone; down at the bottom, there’s a 3.5mm audio jack, USB Type-C port, microphone and a speaker grill.

Its well-sized screen is made to enjoy videos and movies on the go, and it does exactly that, while offering an incredibly immersive visual experience. Whatever content you play on the screen, it appears natural with accurate colour reproduction, without making images appear artificial in nature. It can achieve a peak brightness of up to 500 nits, making it one of the brightest screens available in this range. Detailing levels are above average, while viewing angles are also nice and wide. The screen stretches seamlessly from top to bottom with thin bezels across all sides, slightly thicker at the chip. You also get a notch at the top where the selfie camera is placed nicely.
