Lol. You'll have to do your assignment bro. People will only point you in the right direction for both devices but the choosing is still yours to do. Start with GSMARENA as one of my bro asked you to.

Sabi person.

I like your siggy.

yes i want to be convinced because I'm not sure
Better go for a new fone and since R8A is new, go for it instead of a cracked screen camon 12

I bought Redmi Note 8 last week and they are sending me update signal, can I use my network data to update it or Wi-Fi?

Bros should I clear your confusion?

If you're really serious...

Then for that budget, get the Redmi 8a.

Why?

Processor: Redmi 8a (Snapdragon 439) is better than the Helio P22.

Camera: That's is up for debate but (my opinion) I believe that the 12mp on the R8a is as good as the 16mp on the Camon 12 pro. Note that Tecno cameras tend to fade with time and their software is terrible.

Battery: No contest. 5000mAh on the R8a, compared to the 3500mAh on the Camon 12 pro.

Screen protection: R8a has gorilla glass, Camon 12 pro doesn't.

Software: I have used both MIUI and HiOS and the two no be mate. MIUI is way better.

Look up the specs for yourself on the internet. Good luck bro.

Check for Nokia 4.2 and Samsung A10 as well. These are also okay phones.
okay I'll get the Tecno camon 12 pro
Because my friend said the camera is better.

@Jboixxx Check the compilation thread pls. The Gcam set up posted for Redmi 8 is actually for Redmi Note 8 or it will work too?
*Read through the discussion.
Will check and correct if necessary, sir.

I think since I moved to Android 10 OTA my music file downloads have been coming in .bin files instead of standard mp3 files. But on my other phone on Android 9 the same files are downloaded from the same sites in the regular mp3 format.
Only since the Andr.10 update that I ever heard of .bin.
What to do, anyone?
Also any reliable site links to download TV series?
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by ElvisMcCoy(m): 5:38am On Mar 01, 2020
There's Gcam for R8A as well. Kallmerb posted it a few pages back.

I'm using it as well I can tell you it is quite good.

It has nothing to do with OS upgrade. Rename to .mp3 or .mp4 or the original format you saw before downloading.

Or download from another source

I think I did too hence the reason I asked if he was actually serious. The truth is, that account is an alternate account. Only two posts and was opened last year.

But we here have a history of helping people so I decided not to stereotype him.

He may not even want to buy anything at all sef.
