Poco X6 Pro review

12 January 2024


Sort by:

Guys consider me an ancient being but I'm too much of an audiophile snob with attention to little details when it comes to sound, so what do you guys recommend if I really want the 3.5mm, my budget is around ₹26-27k max. Samsung i considered but these sneaky lads removed the charger and I do not have any 67w with me. Any suggestions appreciated.

    Hudahel, 14 Jan 2024Get Samsung A54 instead, you'll save money. 😅wdym? my mother owns a a54 and its significantly worse than my Poco F5. i see no reason why "Saving money" should be a concern if youre within that price range already. the Poco X6 pro is just bound to be better in every department unless you Nitpick camera shots but it would be a draw at that point too

Keep evading and running away, bring new topic to fit your narrative. And you said no brand using dimensity 9300 but flagship Vivo x100 and x100 pro using dimensity 9300, iqoo neo9 pro chinese version also using it. Both 8g3 and 9300 are neck to neck performance, and there are lot video youtube and GSMArena already show 9300 have same throttle perfomance as 8g3. Just enjoy your Poco F5 stop spamming here.

          I was about to buy this phone. Then I found that virtual proximity sensor Is back. That's bad.

            motop, 14 Jan 2024If these numbers that are on paper, if they really have an ... moreNo, it's because they're used to work with Qualcomm SoCs (especially camera-wise) and probably because they had load of orders already in place before the 8 gen 3 was even announced officially. this won't happen since qcom is switching to custom cores that are like twice as powerful as the current ARM cores but if MTK were to consistently put out better SoCs, most manufacturers would in the long run (say, after 2-3 years) switch.

              If these numbers that are on paper, if they really have an important value, why do major companies like Samsung, Xiaomi, Vivo, Oppo, OnePlus, and Honor why do they use Snapdragon processors in their flagship phones? Why do we not see, for example, the 9300 processor, which the hollow random numbers say is more powerful? From 8 gen3, why do we only see it in a few phones and so on, like the 9200+ and 9200 that preceded it, even though they are cheaper processors than Qualcomm processors? Because companies really know that Snapdragon processors are the best, strongest, most reliable, and best in energy efficiency and continuing strong performance over the years, etc.

                motop, 14 Jan 2024Holy shit OMG How are talking man come-on X2 core and 715... moreFirst you complain about throttling, now you complain about single core, no matter what you will find fault on X6 pro. It's still fact d8300 has faster speed and faster lpddr5x frequency, it has better GPU score. And it's still fact d8300 is better soc. You emphasize single core performance having single cores performance not mean faster it's depending on other factor.
                And I saw your comment on Poco F5 asking about dynamic range, looks like you bought recently, I get it you feel sad because x6 pro come out after you buy f5. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I want people to understand and not blindly follow what some websites say. These sites are supervised by people like you and me. They are human beings who go to the bathroom and relieve themselves, for example. Therefore, they are not prophets, angels, or geniuses. They inevitably make mistakes. Do you know the difference between maximum performance (paek performance )and sustained performance? What is important is the maximum performance (peak )that the processor can reach for a very short period of time, not exceeding minutes. Is this important, or the sustained performance that the processor continues for most of the time? All I'm saying is logically that the slight difference is that 7+ excels in processor cpu performance, sustained performance, and energy efficiency, and the 8300u processor excels in graphics performance (but for a short period and then it soon drops to a level slightly higher than 7+). Here we have the CPU and GPU graphics , sustainable performance and energy efficiency. When you combine these things, you will know which processor is better between the two

                    How are talking man come-on
                    X2 core and 715 and 510 all are armV9 😂😂
                    You don't even know that
                    armV9 cores are X1 x2 x3 ...etc and 715 and 510
                    Hahahaha

                    ArmV8 cores are A78 and 77 and 55 ...etc

                    7+ gen2 is ArnV9 man

                    And in rendering it's far far far faster than 8300u
                    Go to YouTube or somewhere and see rendering test between both and you will see.
                    I can't share links here because the comments automatically cancelled and not posting.

                    but trust me in rendering it's far better and both are armV9 😂😂😂😂

                        PS: Xiaomi promised Mi 11T to get 3 OS updates and my 11T got Android 14 HyperOS last month. So you really are arguing without valid point.

                          christfild, 14 Jan 2024Firatly 7+g2 using big core1x X2, 3xA710 and small core 4xA... moreTypo auto correct Next to next should be neck to neck, can't edit because expired

                              motop, 13 Jan 2024How you can trust blindly that site Numbers of scores of 8... moreFiratly 7+g2 using big core1x X2, 3xA710 and small core 4xA510 then 8300 using big core 1xA715, 3xA715, small core 4xA510.

                              In term of single core is right snapdragon 7+g2 has better single core performance because using X2 cores even on multi cores score higher. But 7+g2 using older ARM architecture and slower speed compre to d8300 using ARMv9 and higher speed. That why on real life test like asset compression, html 5 browser, pdf 5 rendered, HDR, photo processing faster on d8300 because newer architecture.

                              If you understand how CPU work and apps work, getting single cores score not mean faster CPU. For example intel raptor lake 13900k/14900k gen has higher single cores score but still slower on gaming performance compare to Ryzen 7800x3d because most games like 3d cache, on other hand production performance better on intel. But on CPU Ryzen non 3d cache like Ryzen 7950 the production performance is next to next depending apps even thoug 7950 has lower single cores performance.

                              There are lot factor when comparing CPU. You said don't trust nanoreview sites yet you showing me comparison from that sites. I hope you understand little bit how CPU worked.

Poco F5 is slightly weaker than this one (Poco F5 is not better than 8+ Gen 1, and this one is slightly weaker than 8 Gen 2). Both are good phones for people with limited budget who want good performance, but this one is better.

                                      There's a gap of about 2-3 months between each update, but that's fine IMO. It gets boring to download security updates every month.
