          Anonymous, 16 Jul 2020Any comments for the camera quality of this phone?The Poco F2 Pro has got a superb main camera and macro camera. 4K/60fps and 8K/30fps video quality is excellent. Even if it does not have a telephoto camera, the 2x digital zoom from the main camera's 64 megapixel sensor is remarkably very good, it doesn't look like digital zoom at all.

          Colors, sharpness and detail retention at 100% crop are spot on. The portrait mode provides natural looking blurred backgrounds and the night mode is one of the best - excellent dynamic range and good balance of noise reduction, color and detail retention, and sharpness. But wait, it gets even more amazing at night if you sideload and install GCam.

          Overall, the Poco F2 Pro is certainly better than Oneplus and Samsung flagships that tend to overprocess jpeg output resulting in over sharpened, oversmooth image that's too smooth (artificial, too saturated and overcooked looking at least for my tastes).
          The Poco F2 Pro jpeg processing is actually similar to the light handed noise reduction approach in Pixel phones, iPhone 11 Pro, and Mate 30 Pro. Reminds me of my Canon dSLR. Photos look remarkably better on bigger 4K monitors although I'm sure, you'll likely prefer Samsung and Oneplus color/jpeg signature processing if you only look at photos on phone screens/small tablets.

                V, 15 Jul 2020Just got update V12.0.1.0.QJKE... 1.1GB. Any friend also go... moreYes, I can confirm the MIUI 12 update with June 2020 security patch for the Poco F2 Pro is currently rolling out. Got the OTA update by manually checking for updates. It's a great update overall but sadly, it has NOT FIXED the NETFLIX bug/DRM issue.

                As I've previously warned,
                DO NOT TO TRY MIRRORING OFFLINE NETFLIX DOWNLOADS TO YOUR TV USING YOUR POCO F2 PRO.

                You'll have your Poco F2 Pro crashing with scrambled screen in no time IF YOU DO SO.

                The recent MIUI 12/June 2020 update of the Poco F2 Pro hasn't solved it. The bug is still there, only worse. Even if there's no Netflix, when you opt for 'minimize screen' when screen mirroring, the phone crashes also, and reboots automatically. So much for bug fixing updates that didn't fix the Netflix /DRM bug/issues.

                  If in your region the SE is more expensive than Poco F2 Pro, I would go for the Poco with no hesitation or question. The SE absolutely won't cut it battery wise, not to mention that the chipset was underclocked confirmed by Antutu and Geekbench sources. In this comparison, almost every aspect of the Poco is superior.

                  - Full screen bezelless 1080p Super AMOLED display vs 720p LCD with 2010 bezels
                  - Snapdragon 865 chipset with more cores and higher clock (Not to mention Apple has been confirmed cheating on benchmarks. Midrange SD765G can hit 90fps, A13 limited to 60fps)
                  - More updated ram, 6/8GB LPDDR5 vs 3GB LPDDR4X
                  - Higher base storage, 128gb vs 64gb
                  - Quad camera (max 64MP) vs single 12MP
                  - 8k30+4k60 vs 4k60 only
                  - Pop-up 20MP front camera vs large bezel 7MP
                  - Under display fingerprint vs front mounted
                  - Larger battery capacity, 4700 mAh vs 1821 mAh
                  - Faster charging, 30W vs 18W

Get the Poco F2 Pro. Night and Day difference. If you must have an iPhone, get the top iPhone model, not a mediocre low end model.

                      Guys, i need an advice, should i go for this poco or SE 2020. Because SE more expensive than poco in Indonesia. Currently I'm using iPhone 6 and i like the user experience in ios. Need reasonable advice please?

                              Ciunkx, 15 Jul 2020it seems China's phone manufacturer lacks of safety gr... moreNone of my smartphones and smartphones in our household since 2013 have IP68 rating and none has died because of accidental water damage.

                              IP68 is actually overrated in smartphones. Very few people know that the testing protocol for IP68 testing actually involves using only 100% pure distilled water in the testing, and it has to be at constant, normal temperatures, (not too warm, not too cold), no stirring, no agitation, no mixing, no jet stream/pressure involved, and with the phone slowly submerged and placed perfectly upright in the distilled water (not sideways, not upside down) for a specific depth and time frame.

                              That's the reason why phone manufacturers don't honor water damage and are forbidden to advertise IP68 phones as 'waterproof' and usable during shower or while swimming: these situations are very far off from the laboratory setup that tests the phone's IP68 rating!

                              In short, IP68 DOESN'T GUARANTEE protection and survival from accidents like spilled coffee, spilled soda/carbonated drinks, spilled juices and tea (hot/cold/acidic fluids). The same no assurance of survival from spilled basic substances (soapy water, alcohol, bleach, fabric softener, etc.).

                              IP68 even doesn't assure protection against neutral (pH7) substances as well. (Ex. saltwater with its highly conductive nature is extremely damaging). IP68 doesn't give assurance of protection even for faucet water (jet stream/pressurized), pool water (chlorinated, with agitation), or even from as simple as a warm water shower (higher water temp, jet stream).

                              Also, rubber seals shrink, crack, and become brittle/oxidized with time (in as little as 6 months) due to exposure to oxygen in the air and UV radiation from the sun, and with the seal damage accelerated by high temperatures from daily phone charging.

                              You may be thinking you're still IP68 protected after 6 months but NO, it's basically hit-or-miss after that. Overrated? Yes. Though people derive peace of mind from it; it's called PLACEBO effect. Manufacturers use it as advertising advantage never mind 8f it's practically worthless after 6 months unless seals get replaced regularly.

Samsung A71 or S10 lite or this po... moreI have both the Samsung A71 (HDR10 display) in addition to the Poco F2 Pro (HDR10+ display). I can say with 100% confidence the Poco F2 Pro's HDR10+ display is much better than the A71's HDR10 display: higher maximum brightness, higher dynamic range, higher saturation range (yes, you can adjust saturation and more on the Poco F2 Pro). This results to more color gradations and more details that can be seen in the shadow areas and highlight areas of the same photo viewed in the Poco vs. the A71. As for the S10 lite, I don't have that phone but given that it has a similar HDR10+ display as the Poco F2 Pro, it theoretically is capable of the same excellent color reproduction as the Poco F2 Pro. However, the Poco F2 Pro doesn't have an ugly punch hole and there's just are lots more color tweaks and adjustments you can do on the Poco F2 Pro's display and color settings than is possible with Samsung's OneUI 2.1, so, to get it to perfect color calibration/color accuracy or whatever color preference you like, I'd say go for the Poco if you want the most accurate colors or want to have exactly the display colors you like. OneUI 2.1's display color adjustments/tweaks are far too limited in comparison to that in the Poco F2 Pro where you can adjust Red-Green-Blue levels, Hue-Saturation-Value levels, contrast levels and gamma levels. Samsung's OneUI 2.1 only allows RGB and temperature adjustments, nothing more.

                                  Finally, I got one with the 8GB 256GB version.
                                  The impression for me is... OMG.
                                  The full display, no notch, no punch hole display is really gorgeous and stunning, so much less destructive than the notched and punch hole display.
                                  Love the fact that the screen is not curved, which is very practical, then also the screen also almost no bezel, the bottom chin is so thin, until not easy noticeable. Only cons is the corner of the screen is rounded. But that's is ok, doesn't affect much on the usage as the screen is so big.

                                  The cons seems is true:
                                  1. The phone is a very big phone and heavy, is Note/Mate level or Plus/Ultra level of size, not really suitable for everyone.
                                  2. The default 3.5mm jack audio output really is not the loudest. When turn on the HD audio option, the audio volume is further muted. However, on normal mode, you can adjust the age audible option to make the output sound louder. But overall is not that loud. Hope Xiaomi can fix the issue with software update.

                                  Overall, the whole phone feel really premium, gaming is immersive with the all screen display, just without the dual speaker, but the single speaker is very loud. By having the official GMS support, this is the flagship killer of the year. I got the 256GB version for around USD500, not as cheap as the China K30 Pro, but worth it with official warranty.
