Many phone users believe that 4GB of RAM is just enough for a smartphone. However, the internal memory cannot be too much. This will be a good device for those who need a low-cost phone with high storage. On September 19, the Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite (or Mi 8 Youth Edition) was officially released. The design is inspired by the Master of Impressionism Claude Monet, and the mirror gradient rear uses the top-notch vacuum nano-sputtering process as the flagship smartphone, Huawei P20.
