The Redmi 8 is a budget mid-range phone with a 5000mAh battery capacity, USB-C charging and support for 18W fast charging. It is already available in India and China but there are other countries that are yet to get it and one of them is Vietnam. If you can’t wait for the arrival of the Redmi 8, then you may want to check out the new Vivo Y11 (2019) which shares more than one feature with the Redmi but misses out on others.
The Vivo Y11 (2019) has a 6.35-inch HD+ display with a waterdrop notch. It is powered by the Snapdragon 439 processor, the same SoC inside the Redmi 8. There is 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage.
There are two cameras on the back of the phone – a 13MP f/2.2 primary camera and a 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor. You also get a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and an 8MP selfie camera. The camera has a Pro mode, as well as time-lapse, panorama, slow motion, voice capture, HDR, and AI beauty.
The Vivo Y11 (2019) has dual SIM support, an audio jack, 2.4GHz WiFi, OTG support, and an FM radio. It has a 5000mAh battery but you get 10W charging via a MicroUSB port. Vivo is shipping it with Funtouch OS 9.1 based on Android Pie. The phone weighs 190.5 grams and measures 159.3 x 76.77 x 8.92 millimeters.
