Do Redmi Note 8 and Redmi Note 8 Pro support Always-On Display (AOD) feature?

What is Always-On Display (AOD) feature on smartphones?

The Always-On Display (AOD) feature is a new smartphone feature that can display some key information, patterns or animation on your phone’s screen when it is turned off. It’s a new and popular feature offered by the operating system. Presently, most of smartphone operating system supports AOD feature including the latest MIUI 11.

However, the Always-On Display feature is also limited by smartphone hardware. As the AOD feature only works with smartphones with OLED display, while the LCD screen doesn’t support this feature.

Do Redmi Note 8 and Redmi Note 8 Pro support Always-On Display (AOD) feature?

It’s a pity that both Redmi Note 8 and Redmi Note 8 Pro don’t support the Always-On Display feature, although some users of Redmi Note 8 series phones have received the latest MIUI 11 global stable version update.

As we have mentioned above, the AOD feature only works with smartphones with OLED display. However, both Redmi Note 8 and Redmi Note 8 Pro adopt LCD screen, so they don’t support the Always-On Display feature.

But don’t feel disappointed, as the LCD screen also has its own advantages. Compared to the OLED screen, the LCD screen does better in brightness and it also reduces eyestrain and the risk of screen burn-in.
