Redmi Note 8 2021 Edition Specifications

Xiaomi has confirmed that the device will sport the octa-core MediaTek Helio G85 SoC. This chipset is used by multiple companies offering entry-level or budget 4G smartphones. The company has also revealed that the device will come with a 6.3-inch dot drop display.

This chipset would be an upgrade for the Redmi Note 8 series. It is worth noting that Redmi would essentially be affecting the sales of its Redmi 9 series that also features the MediaTek Helio G85 SoC since users would be compelled to buy the latest offering from the company rather than go for a one-year-old device.

Further, the teaser confirms that the Redmi Note 8 will feature a 48MP quad-camera setup at the rear. The company hasn’t confirmed the details of the other three cameras that will be coming with the camera. The selfie sensor will be housed on the notch at the front of the screen.
