Good updates from those pioneers. NFC makes N8pro very interesting. What method did you used to load google services & playstore? Understand some do side load, some use china appstore to load, which is preferred?

I use the china appstore method, the app will install all the google playstore stuff.

Nice. Self-load play store?

Nope use xiaomi app store google services app loader. After uninstall bloated china ware and turn some redundant features, works almost like a global rom phone. Already installed bank apps and NFC ezlink, nets flashpay, all works, but google pay app cannot open. :s13:

But UOB Mighty Pay works.

Does anyone else have the redmi note 8 pro now?

Can you run install and run Androbench, run all benchmarks and share your Sequential Read results?
