It is notch and you have to accept it
Xiaomi Mi 8 is a smartphone that got a screen with indentation. Notch is a solution that not everyone likes. Unfortunately, you have to get used to it and that's it. The CEO of OnePlus already said that there is no escape from such indentations. The Xiaomi Mi 8 screen is AMOLED panel from Samsung with Full HD + resolution (1080 x 2248 pixels). The display offers brightness at 600 nits and supports Always On Display.
Strong specification, but we expected it
Xiaomi Mi 8 under the casing, which is made of glass, has the components we expected. The heart of the phone is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor from the Adreno 630 GPU, which should not come as a surprise. SoC will be supported by 6 GB RAM memory type LPDDR4X. 64 GB of fast flash memory was allocated to the data. 128 and 256 GB versions have been prepared for more demanding customers. Of course, the microSD card reader is gone.
A double camera better than in the Mi 2S Mic
On the back of the Xiaomi Mi 8 case there is a camera that looks very similar to the Mi Miks 2S camera. However, this is not the same camera, but refined, which seems to be confirmed by DxOMark Mobiles. There, the grade was issued in the form of 99 points, and 105 points for taking photos. A combination of 12 Mpix sensors was used here. There is also a Dual Pixel autofocus or 4-axis OIS. Above the screen there is a 20 Mpix camera / f / 2.0.
