The Xiaomi Redmi 8 is a phone that is meant to be attractive to price-conscious individuals. Available for only $144.99, the lowest possible price that it can be found for and offered right here on wirelessplace.com, this phone offers 64GB of memory and a solid 4GB of RAM. 

This phone has a 6.22 inch display that is protected by Gorilla Glass 5. It has an 82% screen-to-body ratio, which is quite good for such a low priced phone. It fits very well in your hands thanks to its thin bezels and its not too heavy either, weighing in at only 188g. 

A few things worth mentioning about this phone is that yes, it does have a headphone jack, which is located at the bottom of the phone, and it is up to date with a USB-C charging port! Also, for such a budget friendly phone, this device offers a massive 5,000 mAh battery. Phones that cost hundreds of dollars more come with a smaller battery than this one. 

Another thing that you may be wondering is what unlock features this device offers, after all we do want our devices to be secured. This device has a rear mounted fingerprint unlock sensor, it's located beneath the dual camera. Although it doesn't have the fastest response time, it's very well built and definitely gets the job done. Another, less secure, unlock feature you can use is its facial recognition. It works well, however if you're like me and you want to be as secure as possible, I'd definitely go with the fingerprint sensor instead.

The Xiaomi Redmi 8 is a great phone if you're looking to spend less than $150. For a phone with such a low price tag, you really do receive a lot of bang for your buck. It's definitely worth the extra money if you were looking at its sibling the Xiaomi Redmi 8A!
