    joe nodden, 26 Feb 2021Dude you're asking for way too much. The jack is nice ... moreThis isn't what I ask, for example, I don't care about 120Hz, I am fine with 60Hz, still many users were really angry when the K40 Pro and Poco F2 Pro were announced and they didn't had a higher refresh rate display.
    All the things I listed aren't expensive, in fact I would have never asked for the super expensive 108Mp Samsung sensor, just for good sensors, not "the best" or "one of the best", just a good one.
    3.5mm Jack and SD card slot cost pennies to implement, the pop up cost next to nothing, there are almost no differences between 2Mp, 5Mp and 12Mp sensor's cost, wireless charging receiver is also a super cheap thing nowaday.
    All that combine wouldn't add more than 50$/€ to the phone price, for the Pro+ it would have justified a higher cost rather than just having a "better" camera.
    I agree they are not the first necessity, but there are still moment when they come handy and you better have them than not.
    The issue is that, yes it is a budget phone, but the Poco F2 Pro gave many things that a lot of user wanted and are unavailable anywhere else.

    There are more chances to see the 3.5mm Jack return than the pop up, people are extremely noisy about the lack of 3.5mm Jack, and it is a huge majority, we are much less to ask for the pop up, and haters are really numerous.

      People buy Samsung stuff based on a vague quality brand impression rather than actual physical benefits...

        Best not to encourage.

          Shady69, 26 Feb 2021people falling for the shitty punch hole trend are the reas... moreNotches, pop ups and punch holes are a thing because we were told that bezels were bad - the fact that it cost us front facing speakers and the notification light is apparently unimportant.
          Just to be clear, bezels are OUTSIDE of the display area and do not impact on usage, even the reducing size argument is moot because phones have consistently gotten bigger anyway.
          I've switched to Sony because that gives me back those things and a 3.5mm jack.

            All these rebrands of sub-brands is ridiculous.
            They're all Xiaomi phones at the end of the day.
            It's virtually impossible to decide among them given the seemingly random way specs are chucked at the devices, it's pretty off putting to be honest.

                  Redmi what Is There K40's searies prics Range In india

                    Gary paul, 26 Feb 2021what the hell Xiaomi doing with imx 682!!! as redmi k30pro ... moreIt's not cost cutting, it's an availability issue.
                    Blame Sony for not enough imx 686 sensors.
                    This is why some phones released with IMX 582 instead of 586.
                    Both sensors are the same with the only difference being lack of 4k60 or above.

                      Like what they have done with the camera arrangement, I just wish that they had centered it never the less it is a good looking device.

                        rest in peace last redmi K series phone launched in india almost 2 years ago...k20 series still looks so good

                                Shady69, 26 Feb 2021but, but, but... poco is a completely independent company f... morehow it is independent company when poco phones are manufactured by xiaomi itself

                                  what the hell Xiaomi doing with imx 682!!! as redmi k30pro had imx 686, so going one step back instead of forward, should have gone with sony's new imx 689. i see cost cutting measures taken by xiaomi

                                      Interested buyer but I'm not familiar with their differences. Without changing to a custom rom, is the poco software better than miui or vice versa?

                                        i had enough of tall screen display ratio :(
