AnonD-720877, 22 Aug 2018Because there is only two (yes 2!) QC4.0 charger currently ... moreIf Xiaomi made QC4.0 and QC4+ chargers it would be less than USD20, and that is what I was alluding to, is that too much to ask of Xiaomi to give us QC4.0 and QC4+ chargers?

[deleted post]Because there is only two (yes 2!) QC4.0 charger currently and they are too expensive (the Razer's is 50$).
This smartphone reveal how stupid is the industry imo even if it's a great deal for the customer (but don't believe you can buy it for less than 400€ if it's officially shiped in EU/US):
How the hell can a "high end" CPU ends up in a phone at that price ? It just means that this processor is cheap for companies and the snapdragons clearly lacked further developement and we could have a better line up of CPU/GPU whitout those ridiculous S4XX (and S630 or S625 which are still used by too many phones launched in 2018).
Even the S636 seems to use more power than this S845 (look at note 5 pro battery-score).
I don't get where is going the money.
Someone was talking about cars: imagine if the mustang was launched with its V8, 400HP and 4l/100km (70 mpg).

[deleted post]What do you have to say about the QuickCharge 3.0 used (you telling me to shut up, while you are the one who shut up and didn't refer to my comment about it)
Even Qualcomm admit that QuickCharge 3.0 sometimes overheats and overcharges your battery, which they corrected in QuickCharge 4.0
SD845 supports QuickCharge 4+ which is compatible with USB-PD why didn't they use that
The Xiaomi POCO F1 is best in the price range but to say it has no compromise is a blatant lie. I'm no Xiaomi hater, in fact, my daily driver is Xiaomi.
Xiaomi made some compromise to achieve this price, which is fine, really everyone does that. I was just stating some of them and asking questions of some specs that were not stated.

This phone basically took out Honor Play , Mi A2, OnePlus 6 and Asus Zenfone 5Z out of the competition.

Because I'm pretty sure that phones front looks nowhere close to iPhone x and camera is better than my iPhone 8 for stills in most situations, video, yeah that's bad, but that ain't my major concern anyways (this one depends on person to person), performance is crazy good and to think I bought it for 500 for 128 rather than iPhone 8(my work phone) which was 800 odd...

"- the cameras. With Sony sensors, it may not be the best but will not be bad ones at least"
I am not sure what you meant by it, but ATM there are no better camera sensors than Sony's and that has been the case for years.

And also bad video recording capability. My dad uses the Mi Mix 2S and the video quality is worst than an iPhone 4S. Camera is par on iPhone 6. 0$ budget for engineering and design team because they completely copied iPhone X design. That's what make them keep the prices very low.

For $300 price bracket,
Mi A2 beats Huawei Nova 3i.
Honor Play beats Mi A2.
Pocophone beats Honor Play.
People must be questioning, 'come on man, where is samsung and sony midrange?'. Please, those two big companies doesnt even come close to device that i listed above.
I'm not even a Xiaomi fan neither owns 1. Stop being a blind fanboy and accept the facts that this Pocophone is one d@mn good specs good all rounder phone for the price, excellent device.
This is good as other big companies will be afraid as many of their customers will go to this phone. Time to do something.

The design - sub mediocre/ugly, chin, top bezel and notch?! But the pricing - sweet. I wont buy it, but Im sure it will hit the market quite well. I can't recommend it for its 6"+ display. Nobody wants such big screen - no one I know personally.
