They should have at least plonked IMX 766 instead of this Omnivision 1/2 inch sensor..

    Anonymous, 26 Apr 2023then you never try how good miui 14 is? its just less featu... moreI am using MIUI 14 now on this budget Redmi phone and it's got quite a few bugs and performance is shockingly bad. You switch app and the other app has to be redrawn losing all info. It's only 4GB of RAM but you'd expect a single Chrome tab to remain when switching to a OTP app and back. It never did it out of the box before MIUI updates. It's an awful experience. If the poco f5 12GB RAM relaunches any apps within 15 minutes time I'll be sending it right back.


      I wanted to write something about selling the same devices just under different names and price(depending on series is sold under) but just like OEMs I stopped bothering about quality of my comments/products...
      That's pretty much say a lot about phone market today. Samsung is flooding market with Axx series, xiaomi is flooding market with the same devices but under different names and others just dont bother do make anything worth looking at...

MIUI is going downhill (stability and features) since version 12, and is worse with every new iteration. It would be nice to at least give us the option whether we want MIUI or near stock Android.

                    2. Poco are still cheaper even in Europe, why you think its Going to coat €800?

                          So many people here keep saying “oh look how cheap” but they forget how much lower the china price is compared to Europe for example.

                          People will never learn that.

                            Goodbye poco series. Had been waiting a great update for F2 pro

                              Hanif Fikri, 26 Apr 2023Performance downgrade from k60 lolNot really! 7+ Gen 2 performs similar to 8 Gen series in terms of CPU performance.

                                Hemedans, 26 Apr 2023Its not though, sd 8 gen 2 under $500 is amazing deal. That's the China price. Surely you know by now that global prices are completely different?? It would be around the same launch price as the Xiaomi 12t pro was last year if launched globally. Around €800 in Europe for example. Even im China you can get the snapdragon 8 gen 2 for around $80 cheaper on the Nubia z50 so it's definitely not an amazing deal. Too expensive for a global 'Poco' launch. Possibly under Xiaomi branding

                                  And expect a Poco X5 GT too. The issue? what processor might use? Dimensity 8200? Or Dimensity 9000 (vanilla)?

                                    3.5mm jack+7+gen2 is better and cheaper than 8+ gen1. You'll never notice extra power of 8+ gen 1 unless you benchmark. Who needs 8k really??
