This is the best phone of 2020. You can get it from €350 in Europe now. When it came out costing 500 it was very good but now for 350 is just insane. This would've been the Oneplus flagship killer that never happened because Oneplus escalated their prices. So xiaomi did the true flagship killer.
If you can, buy the Poco F2 Pro brother instead, the K30 PRO Zoom edition. It costs near 400 but adds telephoto cam with OIS and main camera also with OIS if you really need that for better photos. For the price phone is almost perfect...flash a xiaomi eu rom or pixel experience rom and enjoy.

I dont understand the logic behind the screen complain,60hz is perfect and isn't a disadvantage as many times many reviews trying to prove,in a few days u gonna review iphone 12 and that 60hz gonna be gorgeous and super even if the iphone cost x3 the price of that phone,
Lets get real most games doesn't support more than 60hz and heavy online games will need many more years to support smth more than 60hz,other part is temperature in battery and gpu which again smth more than 60hz create more power consumption and gonna bring more throttling,so at the end as everyone prefer less hz than lags and if the only possible way to use 90 or 120hz is when u scrolling u really don't need a top spec for for that..focus pls on more throttling and more deep throttling test which is what effect most phones this days and should be first priority instead of the screen and cameras,5g plays a big role in that

I love my POCO F2 Pro, changed over from OnePlus 6. I do so many videos every week I have no problems. Photo is great. I am getting 5G signal from 3 network at night. Love the clone function of the camera.👍

r33fd, 27 Oct 2020Does nobody else appreciate that this is one of the very fe... moreYes!
And besides that, I have all supercool wired headphones lying around, Akg, Sony, Sennheiser, Bose, Marshall etc.
I'm not throwing those into the garbage just because Apple was being "brave" (...by that means buying Beats from Dr. Dre for $3 billion and forcing iPhone users to switch to bt)
I love good sound and you will never get that with Bluetooth.
The bandwidth is just not there and that's a fact.
So...

Good evening the iphone 12 was released recently with a 60hrz screen and yet everyone praises the advantage of its screen and the hallucinating display it has and here is the 60hrz becomes a handicap for the pocofone it is the impartiality in itself

IpsDisplay, 27 Oct 2020I am honestly annoyed by being told over and over agai... moreAgreed on this.. I always hear about deep blacks, contrast, colours, etc
but when I see poco f2 pro, iphone 11, the display is still superb ( mind you I am using Amoled screen)
the difference is not that big to quickly avoid lcd phone

I am honestly annoyed by being told over and over again that an AMOLED display is good because we said so....
Give us some real data and not his generic deep blacks, screen is bright
Look at the black shark 3 pro display review on DXOMARK a high refresh rate OLED
:https://www.dxomark.com/xiaomi-black-shark-3-pro-display-review-room-for-improvement/
And it scored horribly because of poor visibility, and light uniformity issues for once a display especially an AMOLED gets reviewed for its individual merit

Commenting from poco f2 pro. Way back 2014, i really loved my Lumia 1520. But when i purchased my f2 pro, i liked it more because i feel i got all i want in 1 package and at the best price. I bought this at about 380usd. Im so happy.

"At the moment, our review unit is still stuck on the July 1, 2020 security patch level. That's just unacceptable in October, and it was just as unacceptable in September."
I am using Global Rom but unlike Admin, my phone has newer update downloaded via OTA. Securiy patch date is 01-09-2020, Rom version is MIUI Global 12.0.4 Stable.

It's actually the best phone of this year. OnePlus and Realme prices are really in some bad water here in europe. This Poco is the last phone I bought since a long time.
