Xiaomi Mi8 Review! – Best Budget Smartphone I Ever Bought, WOW!
Here’s my full review of the Xiaomi Mi8. In my opinion, this is the best budget smartphone I have ever bought and perhaps the best smartphone under $450. It’s got the latest Snapdragon 845 processor, 6GB of RAM(or 8GB if you go for the 128GB model), 6.21-inch Super AMOLED screen(that’s bright as any Samsung/LG), fast performance, dual-SIM, and have killer camera(keeps up to Pixel 2 in both daylight/low-light).
I got this on eBay here:(recommended seller)
If you want to save a few bucks this year on a smartphone that pretty much does everything a flagship does, this is it! Of course, Pocophone could be even better, I should have full unboxing/review of that also.

Want better low light camera performance on the Mi8? Install the Pixel 3 camera for Pocophone, which is also compatible with Mi8:

Considering the camera, is mi8 the best around this price category ?
mi8 or 1+6 ?
Very good review bro I have subscribed your channel coz you deserve it.
its not an iPhone clone, its Apple's ex-bestfriend
i would say the mi have better videos and the huawei better fotos.
LoL i use the same phone case like you
I was paying attention until you showed your face! Were you in the Goonies?
that 2 gb of RAM really dose it's job
Can you use the gestures with the Nova launcher?
That lack of notification space may have just killed it for me… lol
we are not worry about performance we are actually worry of battery life!!!! yes you forget to cover the battery life the main part of mobile.
Watching this video from Mi 8
What launcher do you use ?
So informative thank you

Love your review. Your love for aandroid exudes through your videos.
I'm a bit confused. I just ordered this phone, and was wondering if it would work on MetroPCS (T-Mobile) , in the United States. You said it does work on T-Mobile, but under the description of the phone it is missing band 4 under the GSM category. But it does have band 4 under fdd-lte and wcdma. I'm not really sure how that works exactly. Any help would be appreciated.
LOL imagine being so rich that you think a 450$ phone is "budget"
So wait, will this work in USA on t-mobile/ MetroPCS?
I'm asking because in the description of the device it says it doesn't have bands 4 under gsm. But it has bands 4 under the others like fdd-lte, and wcdma.
Any help would be appreciated. As I'm buying this phone tomorrow. And wanna make sure it will work good. Thanks!
Edit: I know you said you haven't had any issues. But the description confuses me.
This things crash the title – BEST PHONE IN BUDGET. So.. the version Pro (transparent back) is awesome, BUT I said: Its not good enough – easy to scratchtable, no weather sealed (even iP7 aprox. 4 old years phone have it).
I prefer miui actually
I ordered this to replace my iphone 7, I got a new one for the second hand price i got from my iphone lol.. YET IT COMPETES WITH AN IPHONE X???
Pity about the finger print scanner isn't the best and no facial recognition
I wasn't sure what to get between mi 8 and poco f1, and thanks to your efforts i choose mi 8, thz a lot dude
great job and awsome video!
