Unlocking the Power of the Xiaomi Mi-8: A Comprehensive Review and Guide
Xiaomi Mi 8: Celebrating 8 Years of Innovation and Flagship Excellence!
Xiaomi is gearing up to mark the launch of the Mi 8, coinciding with their 8th anniversary celebration. Over the years, Xiaomi has achieved remarkable milestones, and the Xiaomi Mi 8 stands as a testament to their success. This flagship smartphone boasts an under-display fingerprint sensor, setting it apart from the competition. Powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset, the Xiaomi Mi 8 has solidified its place as the flagship of the current era.
Originally planned as the Xiaomi Mi 7, the company decided to rename it to Xiaomi Mi 8 in honor of their 8th anniversary. This choice reflects the significance of this milestone and the need for a remarkable device like the Mi 8 to celebrate this occasion.
While Samsung and Huawei are still striving to deliver under-display fingerprint technology, Xiaomi Mi 8 has already successfully integrated this unique feature. The phone’s impressive specifications include a massive 6.21-inch LCD with high-definition resolution of 1080 x 2248 pixels, enclosed within a sleek stainless steel frame and front-and-back glass panels that lend it a glossy, premium look.
Running on Android OS v8.1 Oreo with MIUI 9 overlay, the Xiaomi Mi 8 is equipped with 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal storage. In addition to the Mi 8, Xiaomi has also introduced two other variants in Pakistan: the Xiaomi Mi 8 Pro and Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite.
