Weekly poll: the Poco F6 and F6 Pro are here, who is buying one?

26 May 2024
And which one? The F5 proved to be much more popular than its Pro sibling last year, will things this year be any different?

YUKI93, 26 May 2024The vanilla F6 could be an interesting buy for those who on... moreYou can never trust second hand phones you don't know if the battery has been abused or or how the phone has been treated. Buy a decent camera if you think you can notice a discernable difference between similar phones. Personally if you think it's going to be junked in a year or two, spending big money on a phone for the camera specs is a wrong priority.

    I'm probably getting the last year's redmi k60 or iqoo z9 turbo because they are much cheaper than the shitty poco ui we have. The poco f6 is overpriced.

      The vanilla F6 could be an interesting buy for those who only want a decently powerful SoC without breaking the bank. I struggle with the F6 Pro since you can get last year's Xiaomi 13 or Xiaomi 13 Pro on the secondhand market and have a much better camera than the F6 Pro.

        Looks amazing. I'll get one.

          aknsreddy, 26 May 2024Small batteries, no interest Too used to 6000mah batteries?

            F6 is good device. But F6 pro? Don't think about that one. Get proper amazing device like 13T pro or vanilla 13 if Xiaomi is a must, or get Samsung s23, which can be found for the same price as F6 pro.

              Small batteries, no interest

                At 520 euro the F6 is too expensive. For that money i would go with something like 2 years old S22 for the phone size and better cameras. Or Xiaomi 13T that also have similar performance as S22 but better cameras then the F6

                At 410 euro like year ago was F5 then the F6 would make sense when 8/256GB F5 goes for 349 euro now and X6 Pro goes for 329 that perform closer to that F6

                I hope my next phone be flip and by the time i need to get a new phone then the flip is already at 300 euro range. As my year old F5 will still go stron for coming 4 years for sure.

                2024 X6 series is more interesting in Poco then F6 series
                F6 would of been nice with 7+ gen 3 to cut the price down to closer the F5 was but then again it's probably the IP64 that adds a lot to the cost.

                I dont like this large camera island that make either big hole for a case or even bigger pump.

                    F6 is the better option. F6 Pro is priced too close to 13T Pro wich is superior in almost every aspect.

                      Personally I prefer a realme GT Neo 6 (I don't have problem to use chinese rom) than Poco

                        The Xiaomi 13T is a better deal than these two

                          As good as the hardware is, the software is very important to me, and god knows how soon you'll get the updates? And the crapware, the sheer number of preinstalled apps.

                            The F6 has Gorilla Glass Victus and IP64, yes, but the F6 Pro still has Gorilla Glass 5 and IP54.

                              It's buying one who can, because these are mostly unavailable.

                                Just make the F6 Pro a rebranded K70 Pro and it'll be better.

                                  You just cant kill jack and not add aptx lossless.

                                    F6 is way better vfm than F6 pro
                                    It's just like last year where F5 pro was overpriced and F5 was amazing

                                      The normal F6 is a far better deal overall.

                                      I have already ordered the Poco F6 in titanium 512gb version for 295, and that's with a free mi band 8.

                                      Deal of the year so far and nothing beats it!! 😎

                                        Poco F6 is good value while F6 Pro is too expensive.
