Xiaomi Mi 8

At the end of May 2018, Xiaomi presented their new flagship phone: the Xiaomi Mi 8. This new smartphone comes with an impressive design and many features. As usual, you can purchase this Xiaomi device without breaking the bank!

Thanks to the Snapdragon 845 chipset, this phone is very powerful. It also features a dual camera that shoots beautiful pictures, and 3D face recognition for easy and secure access.

High-end hardware

As the new flagship phone, the Mi 8 can't lag behind the competition. That's why you'll find the Snapdragon 845 under the hood. This octa-core processor delivers a whole lot of power.

Excellent dual camera

If you enjoy shooting pictures with your smartphone, you'll like the Xiaomi Mi 8. Xiaomi has fitted the back of the device with a set of 12-megapixel cameras. The main camera shoots beautiful, clear pictures.

The secondary camera comes with 2x optical zoom, which allows you to capture objects in the distance. It also features optical image stabilisation, for beautiful, steady films. You can shoot the best selfies with the 20-megapixel front-facing camera.

Large AMOLED screen

Xiaomi has chosen to fit this Mi 8 with a 6.21-inch AMOLED display panel. Minimal bezels surround the display, and a now-familiar notch is fitted at the top.

In this notch, you'll find the infrared sensor for face recognition, the front-facing camera, and the speaker. In all, you end up with a large screen that produces a 2248x1080 pixel resolution. That's why games, films, and pictures look stunning on this phone!

Premium design

This Xiaomi Mi 8 features a glass casing and premium looks. The glass back is slightly rounded on the sides, so the phone handles very comfortably.

Quick Charge 4+

Xiaomi has fitted this phone with a 3400mAh battery. You'll have great battery life thanks to the AMOLED screen and the smart chipset. When you do run out, charging will be done in no time thanks to Quick Charge 4+.

Fingerprint scanner and face recognition

The notch on the front of the phone contains a built-in infrared sensor, so the device supports 3D face recognition. This means that you can unlock your phone in a quick and secure way. As an alternative, you'll find a fingerprint scanner on the back.

Android Oreo with Xiaomi skin

Out of the box, the Xiaomi Mi 8 runs on Android Oreo, so you can use Google's handy apps and you'll have direct access to the Play Store. A MIUI skin is added on top of Android, which changes the look of the interface and adds extra functionality.
