Well, find the door and walk through it. A higher rating indicates that it has very high maximum brightness and thus fantastic outdoor visibility in direct sunlight.

Brightness outdoors is not more than 'acceptable'. Readability in full sun is worse than my previous phone (Lenovo P2)

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] ej_424:
Is it just my phone or are the blacks not as dark/deep as what an AMOLED screen should be? If i turn on the "hide notch" option the area is still much lighter than the notch itself. I can clearly still see where the notch is. The blacks are dark but not samsung AMOLED dark (pitch black).
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] _katho_:
Pixels are off, as black as it can be. You can see "something" because you have a physical notch. You don't see pixels light up, because they are off.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] A7.Rtb:
Hello everyone.

I'm very interested in this device and I want to buy it very soon, so I have a simple question I hope it will be answered.

The most interesting thing -to me- about phone is the screen. I want a phone with Super AMOLED screen and they say that the screen of this phone is the same, but the "lab tests of GSMArena" show that the black color has a value of (0.002 cd/m²) when the brightness of the screen is in "max auto".

It's known that Super AMOLEDs turn off the pixels that are responsible for displaying the black color, and these pixels are supposed to remain off regardless of the brightness level of the screen. So,if the screen is Super AMOLED, how did this value appear?!!

I know it is a very small and undetectable value, but it indicates that the pixels are not turned off -Am I wrong ??-.

Is it conceivable that the screen is not Super AMOLED,or did I miss something?

Knowing that all Samsung phones with AMOLED screens, even the cheapest ones, have the value (0.000 cd/m²) for the black color.

I am very sorry to prolong my question and I hope that someone will answer me.

Thanks in advance.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] achickennugget:
The amoled on Mi 8 is made by samsung so.... Frankly speaking these tests are probably not very accurate, imagine this, 0.002, literally just a tiny bit of sunlight and any tests they conduct will show a value other than 0.000. I am pretty sure the equipment they use to test (GSMarena) is not used under a controlled situation. I would take these tests at face value because most equipments have an error of 0.005+-
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] skanskan:
Mine looks really good.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] A7.Rtb:
Thank you for answering my question.

So, you say that the GSMArena tests may be faulty, and that the Mi 8 screen is made by Samsung, Which means it is exactly the same quality as the screens of Samsung phones themselves. Well, that's something reassuring. Thanks for explaining this to me
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] achickennugget:
I am not saying that the tests are faulty, it is just that the accuracy when you are talking about it at the scale of 0.0002, is not something that u can obtain accurately with the testing methodology by gsmarena, it must be conducted in lab environment where it is controlled to conclusively claim the value at that level of precision
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] A7.Rtb:
Ok, thank you for making it clear to me, bro
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] tomsag:
just go in a complete dark room and look at the display. Best is to look at a complete dark photo or jpg file. That's the best test.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] german103:
The screen makes me smile
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] galakty:
Screen works fine, dont read the GSMArena :)

I've this phone and its ok. Black is off, its OLED...
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] IoIam:
With dim screen in a dark environment I can see a pretty bad black smear effect, however I guess it is a common oled problem plus it's not really visible with some brightness
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] nicolas57:
Problem with old amoled screen was the delay between pixel off and pixel on. So to avoid this delay, a solution can be to let the pixel on but with very low intensity instead of switching it off. Maybe that's why pixels on mi8 aren't swich off..
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] galakty:
Its normal for OLED.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] IoIam:
Well not really, I mean I guess it is common but I did not have this problem on my S3 and on my mother's s8 plus, although I've seen it on her S4.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] Propheticus:
While contrast en true blacks are good, it does seem to smear a lot more on low brightness scrolling than other phones with OLED I've seen/had.

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] bad-3_j:
Yesterday i got a mi 8 6/128 and i found for now 2 issues till now the first one is that when i want to take slow motion video it flickers a red light like hell, the second one is the screen itself when holding the phone and looking at it straight in front the color of the screen seems a bit yellowish also the colors are a bit under saturated when i see the screen from a side view even from bottom or from any side the colors pops out and the white backround is white as it should be i think it has something to do with the front glass that covers the panel and i don't know if there is a way to fix that, i use cool color reproduction on settings but it still annoys me.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] toytown:
I haven't noticed any screen issues on mine, but i have taken a lot of slow motion videos (both in 120/240fps and in 1080/720p) and i've not seen a red light at all.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] drichieboi:
Regarding that yellowish thingy i just set my display color to cool since the default is a bjt ywllowish for me too

Rate this thread to express how you think the Xiaomi Mi 8's Wifi performs. A higher rating indicates that it has excellent range, throughput, and signal strength. Like when you're taking a dump in the bedroom upstairs, do your videos have to buffer or do they come through without interruption?

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] ndonkersloot:
Wireless signal strength is avarage to poor. My Xiaomi Mi4c finds networks where as my Mi8 doesn't. My Xiaomi Mi4c has almost full bars where my Mi8 has only 1 and even disconnects. The Mi4c wireless is the best I ever had on a phone, even beats the iPhone X in both range and performance.

Troughput is good, i dont have wireless AC, only 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz. I get 200/20 from my ISP. A wireless speedtest when i have full connection over 5Ghz results in the following:

Download: 168 mbps

Upload: 20,5 mbps

Ping: 10 ms

These results probably could be better when using better equipment. My wireless network is provided by a TP-Link WDR4300 with stock firmware.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] _katho_:
It's excellent. Nothing to complain about, 250/250 connection.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] rodfrang:
Excellent, on 600/600 5 GHz wifi
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] Waarez:
Can anyone else contribute on the wifi connection range and strength vs other phones?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] _katho_:
Nope, as it's excellent, just like most phones today.

If someone have an issue it's due to their ISP/router etc. like [MENTION=9285218]ndonkersloot[/MENTION], not the device.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] Freeje:
No problems. Better than the Huawei V10.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] AtunConSuaj:
Poor

My Mi 8 has a poor signal, I had a Mi 5 and the strength it's better, like [MENTION=9285218]ndonkersloot[/MENTION] I have the same issues
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] Stefano9999:
I just tried to disable the data, then I connected to the WIFI at home and I activated the Hotspot. Then I connected to hotspot with an old simless smartphone and was able to surf the internet. Virtually the Mi 8 global with MIUI 10 stable function as WIFI extender. Stefano from Italy.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] Crossvxm:
Average at best. I have noticed it suffers from some of the issues that older iPhones had due to antenna placement. When you hold the phone horizontally (landscape), poor connections take a huge hit.

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] rowihel2012:
Sorry but this information not rt

It has only bottom speaker

I tried it
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] Ratheesh6:
The term dual speaker is coined because there is actually two speaker grills at the bottom much like one plus one. But if it have stereo speakers or mono speaker is unknown. The other speaker grill might be just a vent.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] lieblingsbesuch:
Mono-Speaker confirmed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3H_-zbnTEC8 from minute 10 [german]). Seems to have good quality tho.

Second grill is for microphone.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] epwt:
Two grill at the bottom area is more as aesthetic design. It consist one speaker and the other one is microphone. So it is mono speaker. I use stereo speaker on google pixel 2xl but not that much different though... I guess Mi 8 still has good quality speaker even in mono.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] kkancho:
I just got my mi 8 and compared to the Samsung Note 4 I've been using the past couple of years.. it's definitely a downgrade. Sound isn't as clear and it tends to go silent (?) at times.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] 7sen:
YOU JUST SAYING IS VERY BAD ? :rolleyes:

I SEE THE GERMAN REVIEW IS VERY NICE MONO SOUND FOR THIS PRICE OF PHONE
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] Klanac89:
It's not, it's not that bad like the OP6 but some 100-200$ devices are much better.

Louder than Mi6 but it's trash for a >350€ device.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] mroys:
i'll come back to give my comment when i got my phone next week ;)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] Freeje:
It is on the low side. Can't hear if it's noisy like at a train station. Wonder if there is an app that will increase the volume.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] najabi:
After a month with this phone and tried some roms, this speaker is, to put it mildly, quite bad. As someone said, 'flagship my ass..'.

Ring call distorts, volume is low.. and equalization is **** like a bad radio.

I found a way to make it sound better. PowerAmp app has a good equaliser and I have managed to adjust for a quite better sound.

I have tried installing magisk Ainur and Viper'sAudio modules on Sphynx kernel to implement system-wide but I haven't managed to make them work.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] najabi:
I have succeeded installing VIPER4Android FX latest version 2.7.0.0 and it makes a difference over default speaker sound. It doesn't require root or custom kernel, and it installs as an apk file. it doesn't need custom recovery or Audio Modification Library.

Available for download at https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx

It needs root. Additionally I installed it as a system app as I feel it may need high privileges.

It has a useful 'Playback Gain Control' and 'Speaker Optimization' that upgrades the speaker sound, as well as headphones/usb.

I am happier with the sound now, and so far it doesn't distort ringtone or call quality. It improves on youtube and whatsapp sound.

Recommended.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Real Life Review] Freeje:
Does not work as it needs root to install the driver. Tried to access settings but only has settings for notifications.

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Pr0Ankit:
Hello,

I had installed a custom rom for my j7 prime. I want to restore it back to stock but the phone is being detected as On Nxt and I am not able to flash BL and CP files (Error : secure check failed (bootloader) and secure check failed (Radio)). My phone is now in stock rom but is detected as On Nxt and shows 8 gb internal memory instead of 16 gb memory. The CSC code is INS and I really want to store it back to Galaxy J7 Prime. Please help me with it.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers] Pr0Ankit:
Just managed to fix the 8 gb thing by going to stock recovery and resetting the device.

Also, I checked that the firmware which is failing (secure check failure) to flash through odin is G610FXXU whereas my device baseband is G610FDDU. Could this be a reason that my phone shows as Galaxy On Nxt instead of Galaxy J7 Prime ?

So since Oreo...8.0, I'm noticing that the the scanner no longer locks my phone. Is this true for anyone else? Also, it seems a little less responsive..I thought it was the Otterbox, but it seems others aren't having the same issue with that. Anyone notice difference since 8.1? (Stock, Unlocked Moto Z)
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Darth:
Scanner still locking and unlocking fine here. Sorry to hear that yours isn't!

How did you update? I did the OTA. But, I also did a factory reset after, for a clean start. But the scanner worked fine before the reset too.

Good luck!
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Megacurco:
well to be honest for me at least it has always been a little laggy when it comes to unlock the phone and sometimes it makes me unlock it with the password I tought that once it has de oreo update that would change but it hasn´t I didnt do the factory reset tough let me know if you find out more information I will look as well
[Moto Z Questions & Answers] Vcek:
Is your proximity sensor blocked or dirty ? (It's between the front flash and the earpiece). Also if your screen is not properly glued in it's place the same thing will happen.

Had the same problem because of cheap liquid screen protection made the screen glue loose.
