After a long wait, the fantastic top range Xiaomi Mi8 Explorer Edition is finally available for purchase!
Unlike its brother Mi8, which we all know very well by now, Mi 8 Explorer mounts an 8 Gb RAM module, supported by 128 Gb of internal memory. The processor used is the same, SnapDragon845, while the battery changes, the capacity of which drops to 3000 mAh. The dimensions remain unchanged, but the weight does not rise to 177 grams. The substantial differences are quite different: we are obviously talking about the fingerprint recognition sensor integrated into the screen, which returns a vibrating feedback. The second difference is the unlocking via camera, which with Mi 8 Explorer takes place through recognition technology of the 3D face, more accurate and safer than that of the standard version. The third difference is purely aesthetic, thanks to the adoption of a transparent glass body that allows you to glimpse the internal components and gives Mi 8 Explorer a distinctive and captivating look.
