    - Of course I understand it.

    > "The device is purely a master of speed."
    - And there is no place to apply such performance, because it's just a smartphone.

    > "You didnt know how IR cam works."
    - I know. I also know that you used "didn't" instead of "don't" by mistake.

    > "Apple's iPhone introduced that feature first and everyone gone mad and dropped jaw to the floor."
    - In iPhone X face recognition works differently than in Pocophone F1. Face ID in iPhone X creates array of dots representing your face. Poco F1 has infrared camera just to see your face in the dark, but mainly it's still photo-based recognition.
    Anyway, I didn't "gone mad" about Face ID beacuse I understand that it is no more secure and/or comfortable than fingerprint reader. So, it's just a gimmick.

    > "A1 has telephoto lens in rear second cam. F1 has portrait."
    - I know that. And I know that telephoto lens is more valuable. And also I know that, back in the days, iPhone 7 Plus could do "portrait photos" (boke effect) with telephoto lens. So with telephoto lens you have 2 functions instead of 1.

    > "Can you show a device for 300$ with all spec Poco F1 has and that device should give tough to Poco F1 in performance and speed ??"
    - As I said earlier, performance in smartphones isn't the main feature. And as I also said earlier, Poco F1 doesn't have features that I would like to have rather than some gimmicks.

    But for me, even that stupud placement of cameras next to fingerprint reader (iPhone X style is much better) is already a no-buy.

      You didnt know how IR cam works. Apple's iPhone introduced that feature first and everyone gone mad and dropped jaw to the floor. Samething came to Poco F1 and everyone complaining it. So far used, IR works great. It unlocks the device faster even there is no light around. Is there any other device without IR blaster can unlock phone in complete darkness ??

      Mi A1 and Poco F1 are having different lens. A1 has telephoto lens in rear second cam. F1 has portrait. It is funny that you are speaking about camera module without understanding the type of lens used in it.

      Can you show a device for 300$ with all spec Poco F1 has and that device should give tough to Poco F1 in performance and speed ??

          Love the Community, 27 Dec 2018It doesn't have Widevine L1 Codec. So no glorious 720p and ... morecant watch 1080p on youtube? what are you talking about?
          dude you can watch FHD videos on most apps and sites but netflix and amazon prime, and if you use these 2 as your video streamers then better go for another phone, this phone is not for you
          as a friend said who care about L1, while you can get any netflix movie in fhd on the net 10min after release.
          btw, all oneplus phones prior to 6 lacking the L1 so do many more in other brands, lg g5, honor play, honor 10 .... but no one talks about them

                  Huawei Mate 20 Pro is deffo better than the same old boring Note 9 series

                    > "We expected the Pocophone F1 to be riddled with compromises to achieve its cutthroat price but it wasn't..."

                    But it was:
                    - bad placement of rear cameras and fingerprint reader to each other;
                    - no NFC and Google Pay support (even though Pocophone F1 is for global market!);
                    - "infrared face recognition" is nothing more than a gimmick, for which I, as a potential buyer, don't wanna pay;
                    - second rear camera doesn't 2x zoom - even Mi A1 did!

                      ! WOW !
