Xiaomi doesn't seem to have any direction for Poco. They sort of had one for the first launch of the Poco F1, but after that, they're simply rebadging existing Xiaomi devices.
Poco was made as the onePlus killer, but seems like BKK is not standing still, with Realme and OnePlus getting back at Xiaomi and attacking it form both sides. Xiaomi handsets become boring with multiple overlaps and rehashing of the same thing again and again.

Poco can still to this day can launch 2 year old 25k INR redmi k20 pro(snapdragon855) with plastic back or not, for 18-21k InR as poco f2 fill the void of f1, why are they not doing that, is beyond my comprehension. Bang for the buck is most important for poco buyers, may be qualcomm is forcing them to buy newer and expensive 865, not selling them older 855+. K20 pro can still be f2, with 865 for poco f2 pro

Poco F2 is a great disappointment to me as I was waiting to upgrade from POCO F1 . Also with China product being ignored this may be a blow to Poco .

I think Xiaomi scared if Poco will cannibalized Mi/Redmi series. That is why they release mid-range phone instead.

Probably will be same for every phone when they get massive amount of time spent in gaming. Pressing on the screen a lot with high pressure cause of the adrenaline you get from the game you dont know how hard you press on it. That in time will break the phone

Ure, 12 Jul 2020This is a great option for people that liked Redmi Note 9S ... moreAds are only for dumb users. People who know to turn off ads dont see any issues with having ads. Never mind that i have Redmi note 5 EU version and have never turned any ads off nor do i know the place to turn them off i still do not have any ads. It's just the lame people who spread fake news and think they are so cool to be so dumb.
For the Pocophone. It was good when it first come out as F1. After that all new models are just rebranded garbage with high price tags. Poco F2 Pro is 550 euro phone just like Realme and others with similar specs. Poco F2 should of come out with minor changes like popup camera and updated cpu to something 855/855+ and hold the price under 35 Euro and it would of sold like hot cakes bang for a buck what the Poco was meant to be. A lot of people even dont like the phone brand name like pocophone but went with it just cause of the bang of the buck it was.

My phone i use to write this is Pocophone F1. This is a great phone, the first cheapest 300k Antutu(v7) in the world.
And still accept Android 10 until now, and im also waiting MIUI 12.
This poco f1 give Smooth-Extreme pubgm, and very rare fps drop incident. It satisfied me so much.
However after about 1 year, the screen start to paralyze sometimes. I mean when i move my character, it was suddenly stop. I cant move the analog.
When i hold Fire button to shot enemy, my shots suddenly stop while the enemy Nearly dead, but he finishes me.
But its okay i think this poco f1 already gave me best experiences of pubgm, even i cant play pubg again.
Next time i dont want to buy any xiaomi Poco anymore, but xiaomi Blackshark .

It's just yet another version of the Redmi Note 9 Pro. Absolutely sick of Xiaomi over saturating the market with slightly different phones or or some cases the same phone with a different name

This is a great option for people that liked Redmi Note 9S (Pro) , faster charging and in my opinion something most people would love is the absense of ads in system. One journalist praised that few days ago on his review so it's definitely a better choice.

The beginning of the Pocophone adventure crusade ended after the beginning... The Pocophone F1.
The concept is soooo dead 😱😂😂, sad, but true!

pocophone is a famous brand in my country they offer good performance on poco f1 and get a good image as a cheap smartphone with good quality, in my opinion the launch of a smartphone with a cheaper price despite having many competitors poco m2 pro will be chosen by consumers because it has a good brand image, voting on this purchase will not prove anything, they do different marketing strategies in each country and information is not evenly distributed quickly.

I don't care about names. For me it matters the quality and specs provided.
You can call it Ultra, Pro, Mega, Super, Second, SE, Lite etc, Poco, Redmi, Mi, A, M, S etc. All I look is specs, quality and price. The rest is just a noise.

Poco M2 is a desperate case of milking the positive image of the M1.
In my opinion a SCAM
I won't support this marketing JOKE
