As alternatives I would have added the X4 GT (note I don't find OLED any better irl than IPS-LCD) ... the 8100 has pretty good performance, though not as good, it also doesn't throttle .. Unfortunately Xiaomi made X4 GT pretty much invisible in UK, and rare in EU.
..
Shame to see this thing throttle so bad (Note 12 Turbo does exactly the same thing - down to sub 70% on throttle test) - hard to digest given the huge vapor chamber on the phone - are all phones with Cortex X cores just bad in this respect, or is there another factor ??

quote : " It's also different from the Snapdragon 7 Gen 1, which we deem a simple rebrand of the Snapdragon 778G"
This isn't true, even if performance is very similar, at least the 7 Gen 1 is on a smaller node giving better performance per watt ...

The zero score is surely a mistake. Although I'd say it's fair for anyone phone without microSD support to get a zero

Currently it can be found for 300$ as an early bird promo, however it seems the upgrade from Poco f3 is not justified yet. Same brightness as F3 is disappointing.

It actually has a decent improvement over the 870? Nicee. This is on my wishlist now.
Also, this is the first time I've seen 0 stars rating review on this website, lol.

The performance dip worries me in the long run..
