Xiaomi executive Lu Weibing also used his social networking profile on Weibo to reveal some of the features that he was testing and have stated that these are now much improved.
From what he implies, we can expect much improvements in terms of camera performance, an even longer battery life and a much better display. Not just in Note 8 but the whole series including the upcoming Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro
The camera enhancements are consistent with earlier rumors, that have already indicated it to be the first smartphone from the Chinese brand with a 64-megapixel camera, and that too with a Samsung's GW1 sensor. Rumors also suggest the device to come with a MediaTek Helio G90T processor.

So all we have left is to cheer for the global launch until it finally arrives in the local market.
