I don't care if the phone has it's charger included or not - I won't use it anyway. Spec-wise 399€ for 12/512 is really good, but this phone doesn't have major component, which is a dealbreaker for me - no 2MP macro... Maybe F7 Pro will have it.

    We were glad if you do the cpu throttling test one again in performance mode

      Anonymous, 9 hours agoI don't see much praise for any of recent phones'... moreNo you're overthinking about it and if it was according to what you say it would have worsened on my phone, not stayed the same or even sligthly better.

          vik457, 14 hours agoYeah no, 'raQ'It didn't get worse with 2.0.2.0 vnaeuxm update and that's not the only case.

            Aierlan, 16 Jan 2025Better than a small battery with terrible optimisation! And barely any company has that. Its either small batteries, good optimisation, or big batteries, bad optimisation.

              What an ugly theme it has, if I were to buy it, I would change its theme the first thing I do!

Their phones are giving bad battery life consistently for last few years and it is well known everywhere. Only reason to not fix it for this long is intentional disregard.
                  They need to fire their developers or their managers who have decided not to optimize their OS.

                        JimmyTheGreatest, 20 hours agoAny thermal issue? I didn't buy the previous X6 Pro... moreNo Thermal issue at all. It did get warm when I was doing the initial setup but after that it has been normal. I don't do heavy games yet but I've seen people gaming on it, runs like butter. Improved a lot over X6 Pro in that regard.

                              Still i don't know how you guys are buying phones with proprietary charging system and blame EU law (not the EU isn't trash).. it's the vendors who are cheating and abusing the laws in their own favor.
                              i see 100W PD chargers in any cheap Action store for 19€, not sure which phones are going to work with it though. I have few 30W chargers here from same type - work like charm..

                                6k mAh, and still poor battery life ahah. These noobs can't be saved 🤣

If phone's battery life runs too long, then people won't buy new phones. The 6000mah capacity is just marketing as it doesn't translate to much real life improvement.

                                    What a dissapoint is that the new X7 vanila has a peformance not even half of this. While the X6 vanila does ( with X6 Pro) . I dont know why they dont up the chipset in vanilla one..

                                      In other markets like LATAM it has the 90W charger bundled in the box.

                                        It's usually the better option on Poco devices.

                                        And yeah, no charger is a new low for Xiaomi. Especially when we're paying the highest price for it to begin with.
