The
Redmi Note 8 and Note 8 Pro will be unveiled on August 29. The Pro model will
boast a 64MP module in its triple camera, the vanilla model will get a 48MP
sensor instead. Xiaomi has unveiled more details, including a Helio G90T
chipset for the Pro and Snapdragon 665 for the vanilla handset.
Any
specs not teased officially can be found in leaked table shown below, the prices
are in another leaked table. The Redmi Note 8
Pro will come with a 6.53” IPS LCD with 1080p+ resolution. Gorilla Glass 5 will
cover the screen, a teardrop notch for the front camera will be on top. The
phone will be a large one at 199g weight.
The
camera setup will feature a 64MP Samsung GW1 sensor (1/1.7”, 0.8µm pixels), 8MP
ultra wide-angle camera, 2MP macro camera (2cm focal distance) and 2MP depth
sensor. The non-Pro model will likely get the same hardware save for the main
module (it's getting 48MP instead). This sounds quite similar to Realme’s new
lineup.
Anyway,
the 4,500mAh battery supports fast charging up to 18W using USB Power Delivery
(QC4.0+ and Pump Express are also supported). Charging will be done over USB-C
and there’s a 3.5mm headphone jack next to it (as seen in the official
teasers).
