The camera modules can easily be swapped but the charge port is cumbersome to get to.

If Google still doesn't ditch Samsung for Pixel 7 you can be sure they don't really give a crap about their customers' experience.

        Or just spend another few bucks and get a replacement screen with the frame so you don't have to bother with the adhesive. It was the same with the F1, and the extra frame costs like just what, $3?

Peek display has many issues and it's linked to double tap to wake, so if you turn it off you're stuffed.

              It has a proximity sensor too so it's already far better than all Xiaomi and Poco phones.

              12GB of LPDDR5 RAM too ;)

                Anonymous, 15 Jul 2022Software though is trash dude MIUI is not perfect but I've never encountered a bug that render my Xiaomi phones unusable. And I have used Redmi Note 8, Mi 9T, Mi A3 and now Poco F3. There are small bugs here and there but no phone-breaking bugs that some people like to say their Xiaomi phones have.

Except face unlock and slow fingerprint scanner, everything is top notch on Pixel 6 Pro. Currently available for 699USD. Great deal in my opinion. Pixel 6 at 499USD. Even better deal.

Works great with their hardware. You should not remain on stock software on Xiaomi and One Plus devices anymore. Flash custom rom and get GCam. You will have great experience overall. Have been doing this since long time. But shifted to One Plus + Motorola recently because Xiaomi and Poco has been charging quiet high in my market.

                          Always good to watch a competent skilled engineer teardown a phone. Very nice work.

                            Getting a good quality smartphones must be nice, but im content with any phone as long as it works i don't use em a lot anyways,i do most of my things in pc or consoles so i think having the option for cheaper phones out there is not bad.. at least they're options to pick from and people with limited budget have a chance to use decent phones, not everyone can afford those high ends, so it's natural that there's more cons than pros.

Someone built it by putting lots of interlinked parts together so it's just reverse engineering. I've repaired quite a few smartphones and laptops. It's really not that hard to be honest.

                                  Everything software related had some kind of bugs, even old dumbphones had them and so do all computers/smartphones.
