Anonymous, 27 May 2024One doesn’t buy Chinese phones for the software and updates... moreEven Oneplus is not free from software issues, mainly green and pink lines that can appear on their phones with Amoled display. And Oneplus is also struggling to send updates on time since they have so many models nowadays. My Nord 2T for example, just got the April security update a few days ago after the last one in January.

It only affects the lens, but do remember that it can be a major annoyance at unexpected times. Still a better phone since you're looking for a balanced setup of performance + camera, with better IP rating as you mentioned.

              Anonymous, 26 May 2024As good as the hardware is, the software is very important ... moreOne doesn’t buy Chinese phones for the software and updates and cameras, lol. There are some exceptions, though, like OnePlus, for example.

                    I could clearly see the fogging in the main lens.
                    The first time I encountered this problem.
                    I have since sold the phone.
                    A common problem on the 13T/13T Pro, 14 and 14 Ultra.
                    But you have to search the German forums to get feedback on this problem which is quite common in certain specific conditions of use.
                    I hope my Poco F6 will not have this fogging problem.

                        Poco F6 titanium 12GB / 512GB + Band 8 Active ordered from MI.com today for €285.
                        (Pre-order offer + coupon + Mi Points).

                        I'm waiting to receive it to test it, but it seems to be excellent value for money

                          Anders, 26 May 2024Poco F6 - Terrible cameras, horrible focus pulsing in video... moreBad cameras, yes.
                          No 1TB? What the hell are you storing on your phone to consume 512gb? Buy an external SSD at that point? So weird.
                          Plastic frame, no meaningful difference.
                          95% of phones have a slower charging speed than the Note 11 Pro+.
                          Headphone jack is bs
                          Who cares about usb?
                          4L what?
                          Every point except the bad cameras and headphone jack, the average consumer, including myself, does not give a shit about.

                            Poco F6 - Terrible cameras, horrible focus pulsing in video recording, no 1TB storage option to compensate for no microSD support, plastic frame, charging speed slower than the 3 year old Redmi Note 11 Pro+, removed headphone jack from F5, no USB 3.2, no 4K video on front camera.

                            Poco F6 Pro - terrible cameras except the decent main one, absolutely awful battery life, only IP54, only GG5, removed wireless charging from F5 Pro, no USB 3.2, no 4K video on front camera.

                            They're both BS.

                              Poco F6 vs Realme GT neo 6T

                              Poco has better processor, camera and is cheaper

                              Realme has better dispay, battery and software optimisation.

                                If iqoo launches z9 turbo 12/512 for 30k including first sale discount I will buy it . GT 6T , F6 are not as good.

                                  I could buy the Poco F6 but it isn't available at least currently where I live
