did the update few days ago, Global 12.2.4
right after the update I factory reset my phone.
updated the poco launcher manually by downloading latest beta .apk file from google.
no issues after that.
full screen gestures working fine even after hiding the bottom nev bar.
performance is good and better then before.
animations are still broken on poco launcher, which is very frustrating.
apps opening animation is better then before but closing animation is broken.
another bug is that if you open app from app draw and do the home gesture, it do not go home, but returns to app draw..
google feed on left is still very laggy. I don't know why
sometimes it scrolls fine and sometime it has lot of lag. not seen this in any other phone.
battery life same as before, which is great and I must say the best battery life this class of phones..
no android 11 new features, what is the point of giving android 11 then ?
not new style of notifications, no notification history, and all other android 11 features.
for that they say wait for 12.5
these are my thoughts

Attaching files in Gmail and ... moreMore 'criminal' update bugs in the Poco F2 Pro's 12.2.4.0 MIUI/Android 11 update: Websites that require Captcha before log in are broken, you won't see Captcha photos and you will NEVER be able to LOG IN! That's on top of not being able to attach files in emails, attach files in online shopping site reviews, not being able to view PDF files from File Manager apps, broken 'open with', 'complete action with' and 'share' /link functionality, broken full display mode, broken dark mode, broken full display gestures, broken third party launcher support, broken auto brightness, etc. etc. It is such a horrendously buggy update NOBODY SHOULD UPDATE THEIR POCO F2 PRO to Android 11/MIUI 12.2.4.0 or earlier (all variants) until all these stupid bugs are corrected. Xiaomi should have never released this update. A security patch update only would have been better until such time the Android 11 update is functional and workable. Android 11 with MIUI 12.2.4.0, (or other earlier Android 11 updates on this phone) is just too criminal.

Satya, 22 Jan 2021I am 100% sure that its not boot loader issue, got phone pu... moreIt's 100% a DRM issue. Not all phones with Widevine L1 certification are guaranteed playback in HD in phone by a streaming service. It still depends on the streaming service - Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, etc. if the phone manufacturer is granted playback rights in HD. At least this is my experience with China branded phones. Playback of DRM encoded content is NEVER assured with China based phone brands: Xiaomi, Oneplus, Oppo, Vivo, Realme, Huawei, EVEN IF the manufacturer claims 'Widevine L1 Certification' and 'DRM info' app says 'Widevine L1'
If you care so much about watching and streaming DRM encoded videos (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, Disney, etc.) and use frequently those services from your phone, AVOID CHINA BRANDED phones (Huawei, Xiaomi, Oneplus, Oppo, Vivo, Realme, Lenovo, etc.) AT ALL COSTS. Always go with Samsung, LG, Sony, Asus and Pixel/Android One phones for a frustration free HD streaming experience.

Good phone but too heavy to be comfortable. The weight of this phone is too much.

However, the Android 11 update of the Poco F2 Pro is buggy and broken. So its up to you if you wait for a more stable Poco F2 Pro update before upgrading to Android 11 or you choose the alternatives over the Poco F2 Pro if you decide to buy now.

I'm planning to replace my 4-years-old phone (Xiaomi Mi5) and trying to decide which phone is the best for me. Between Xiaomi Mi 10T, Poco F2 Pro, Realme X2 Pro, and Huawei Nova 7, which one do you think is worth the price? I know not all of them are comparable in specs, but appreciate if you can help me decide.
Thanks.

Then there's also BROKEN email attachments. You CANNOT attach files/photos to Gmail and other email clients and viewing downloaded PDF file attachments in emails is dysfunctional/broken. The Android 11 update of MIUI (all versions of it up to MIUI 12.2.4) is truly, 'criminal' and dysfunctional.

Still waiting for multiple bug fixes. The Poco F2 is Android 10 out of the box. Better not upgrade until a truly stable Android 11 update with multiple bug fixes has been released.
