I'm glad, I didn't get Poco X6 Pro yet. Poco F6 will be a much better choice, Snapdragon 8 gen 2 will last for a very long time!

Anders, 03 May 2024There's seemingly going to be very little difference b... moreThe k70 (Poco F6 pro) is definitely more popular than the Turbo 3 (Poco F6) in China but the price difference is just 400rmb (about €50 more). It's definitely worth the extra €50. Better build with a metal frame versus the entirely plastic turbo 3, the slightly better processor overall, a significantly better 2K screen, faster charging and a much stronger main camera sensor (OV50E instead of the lytia 600). Definitely enough upgrades for €50 in China. However, it depends on how much the difference will be in the global market as to whether the pro model is worth it in the global market

Anders, 03 May 2024There's seemingly going to be very little difference b... moreEven the two chips that you mentioned are pretty close in terms of performance. In non-gaming scenarios, 8s gen 3 is actually a better chip.
The CPU performance of 8s gen 3 is likely to be 3-5% higher than 8 gen 2, in both single-core and multi-core tasks. Given that it is built on a newer fabrication process, i.e. TSMC N4P (as compared to N4 for 8G2), it is likely to be more power efficient as well.
In gaming benchmarks 8sG3 is likely to yield around 10% lower peak performance, but given the shader configuration and frequency differences (8sG3 has only 60% shaders as compared to 8G2, which it tries to compensate with much higher frequency), 8sG3 is likely to be much less power-efficient.
Rest of the specs and supported features are largely similar between the two chips.

F5 Pro has Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, so it makes sense for F6 Pro to go for Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. I just wish Xiaomi can make Poco phones more reliable and robust.

If you have newest poco device running latest miui with RAM expansion feature, Listen carefully:
Better you turn off this gimmick feature forever. This feature may degrade the phone's storage quickly.
Usually phone will soft reboot and has issue like ghost touch. Taking screenshots accidently, power button usually appear without you touching it, and then it will reboot itself. After I turned off this, phone running well.
This happened in my POCO F3 (1st batch production) as well. I bought it as soon as it released. But I already sold it though because of this issue.
POCO need improve Miui or even HyperOS a lot. Maybe better if you unlock bootloader and use custom aosp rom, stay away from Miui.

This should be a banging mid ranger, even with the useless ultrawide and macro cam set up.

There's seemingly going to be very little difference between the F6 Pro and F6 regular. 8 Gen 2 Vs 8s Gen 3, probably the same 8mp+2mp camera setup, same size battery.
Like last year with the F5 series, the regular F6 might be a better deal than the Pro.

OnePlus 12R is shivering right now. F6 has the same chipset but better storage and RAM. Only thing that can save it is the cameras and software (upt to consumer).
Ace 3V is like a couple hairs behind in AnTuTu (1.5M vs 1.3M; 8 Gen 2 vs 7+ Gen 3) so even that can't really defend it.
