Hyper OS is a battery draining mess
What is Xiaomi gonna do if the 8 gen 4 is already power hungry

I think the X6 Pro offers better value with similar performance. Yes it's a mediatek and not a snapdragon but who cares these days.

As usual with MIUI 14 and MIUI 15... Sorry, HyperOS, battery optimization is nowhere to be found.
I think it is a hard phone to recommend to the average user. Power users that need performance on the budget, can't find a better phone to play.

So Poco removed the 3.5mm jack from Poco F5 to offer worse battery life in Poco F6.
Poco X6 pro with its inferior Dimensity 8300U, has better battery life than both Snapdragon Poco F6/pro.....
Same story with thermal management, which seems worse than Dimensity....
At least there is a decent improvement in screen brightness compared to F5.
Poco X6 pro with its lower price, is indeed the better value this year.
I am looking forward to Oneplus Nord 4(Ace 3V)after this review....

why Xiaomi's phones are just stuck at this battery level is something beyond me. Like they just have the same amount of battery active use/ at least a similar amount throughout their whole lineup.
The camera is plenty usable, pretty awesome processing, I prefer it far more than Samsung's one, would rather have this "overprocessed" look over Samsung's one. The Poco F6 Pro's processing was beautiful though.
Speakers are nice, performance is better than the F5 Pro's!!! I think that's the most significant thing. Processing saved this release. A better UW cam (12MP or more and 1/3.06" and larger) would have made this a great phone, hope they can pull that off for next year, if not for the Poco series at least for the "photography" focused Redmi Note series. This 8MP cam NEEDS to go away. Samsung's used it in their M31 back in 2020, why is this still relevant? Xiaomi themselves have been using it since the Redmi Note 8 Pro I believe. To still have it on the 13 series, yikes.

What about as an alternative to the poco X6 pro? It would be useful to know since I have to choose between one and the other. Is the 100 price premium worth it?

Battery life is held back by HyperOS. Let's see if custom ROMs fix it or not.
