Days after Xiaomi launched its entry-level Android smartphone – the Redmi 8A in India, the company is readying the launch of another budget handset – the Redmi 8 in the country. This phone is positioned just above the Redmi 8A and is expected to be priced below the INR 10K mark at launch. Xiaomi has already published a landing page for the Redmi 8 on Flipkart, where they have hinted at some of the specifications of this handset. The teaser page makes it evident that the Redmi 8A is primarily targeted at people on the lookout for an affordable smartphone with excellent battery life, and a great camera.
Redmi 8: What we know so far
From the teaser images that have already been uploaded on Flipkart, we can say for sure that the Redmi 8 will feature a dual-camera setup. In fact, the teaser also adds that the phone will feature a flagship-grade sensor from Sony. The Redmi 8 is also touted as a ‘battery champion’ and is rumored to feature a 5,000 mAh battery. While we do not know the display size as of now, an image shows that the phone will have a display large enough to use multi-window apps. The phone also features a notch at the top where the front-facing camera is located. Like the Redmi 8A, this phone also features the USB Type-C port for wired connectivity.
