Xiaomi does not allow itself or competitors to breathe. The story with the re-release of Redmi Note 8, which became a hit of sales, seems especially surprising. The company has not used this maneuver before and it will be interesting to see if it turns out to be successful. But we can see the appearance of Redmi Note 8 (2021) today. A promo-render of the device has appeared, revealing its design.
The task of enchanting and offering something new in the exterior was clearly not at stake. The company will simply take the case of the last Redmi Note 8 and put other hardware inside. In 2021, a smartphone in this design does not make a good impression and there will be many who will extremely negatively perceive the same bulky body and a teardrop notch for the front camera. Few people will buy a new product for design, but external archaism can offset the low price tag.
According to the manufacturer, this model turned out to be one of the most successful in the entire history of the line. Sales statistics – 25 million copies sold. It was the success of the model and decent sales that pushed the company to release another version of the Redmi Note 8 in 2021.
