Anonymous, 19 Aug 2022Not sure about the camera issues. I am not facing anything ... moreI always think GCam is a hit and miss. Some developers are great, other are not. Apart from BSG do you have a second choice developer for GCam? And i don't think GCam should be the magic bullet to get better camera photos on the F4. I would still prefer Poco updates its cameras. But in your opinion does the daylight, low light & videos are far better with GCam?
SO do you think if i install the Poco launcher from the Play Store the UX would be better than "stock" F4 launcher?
For me a quarterly security update is not good enough. We are in 2022 and security and privacy should be the utmost priority for phone makers. From a company that is based in China and a phone made in China I am not surprised. This is something i need to think about.
Also, re MIUI there are still ads in there. And there are some really unnecessary settings and options that should not be there that is why it may be smooth but underneath is clogged up and if too many memory is being used it battery life and performance will implode and affect the device in the long run.
Since launching a few weeks ago the Nothing Phone had 3 updates addressing issues directly given by users. And that alone is too good to ignore. That means the Nothing team is serious in its device.
But what do you think?

I am not facing anything major related to camera (FYI : I mostly use gcam 8.5 by BSG & works great). Yes, I do miss the monthly security updates I used to receive with nokia 7 plus. But I am okay if security updates happen once a quarter. Apart from that, I installed poco 4.x beta launcher & it kind of made the whole experience better & smoother. Disabled MIUI optimization from developer options & now battery life has increased (7-8 hrs SOT) & ram management is also better. Yes, not that straight for average user to tweak things but can be done if you know where to find info.

      Andre, 18 Aug 2022I can honestly say, you're seriously mentally challenged 😂You probably are. Have you done your research about the Poco F4?

When I had my old Poco F3 for almost 9 months last year i probably only had one MIUI update if not only two. And the security update was also slow and scarce. received security updated every four months. In 2022, these figures are APPALLING.
          So, would you say MIUI 13 is now better with Poco F4? And how about security updates?
          And do we even know if we will ever get camera updates as there's just too many issues with them them at the moment.

Considering it is sd 870 device, most people will replace it after 2-3 yrs. So principle of recurring customers says "if you keep your promise, your clients stay loyal to your brand."

                But the question is do you need such quality when 99.9% of people don't notice much about the difference?

Not just the stutters and slowdowns but some menus are either not working (e.g. dark mode for individual apps) but there are sometimes stacks of settings on top of other settings that are either totally unnecessary or useless.
                    So, can you honestly say that the MIUI 13 is now more refined? And will Poco fulfil its promise of at least 3(?) MIUI updates for the F4?

                                    technomist, 07 Aug 2022via root yes.There is no way I'm buying F4 without antilicker mode. Come on Xiaomi give us antiflicker via update.

                                      Is the Moto G82 a much better prospect in terms of front & rear cameras (quality, performance, dynamic range, sharpness, colour accuracy, low light) than this Poco F4? I'm concerned also about the updates on what company can sustain and give us customers not just more Android and UI updates but under-the-hood / maintenance updates?
