Mickey, 26 Mar 2024Well If you hit on X6 pro you will not get Custom ROM suppo... moreX6 Pro did come with HyberOS so that wont be as easy as it was with MIUI to get bootload open to get to install custom rom on a phone and yeah it's with Mediatek chip with what you cant do it anyways. But even with Snapdragon chips all the phones that now come out of the box with HyberOS the solution to open the phone wont be easy anymore and it wont take only few weeks to unlock to get a custom rom to install on them
Also X6 Pro was promised to have 3 OS updates and 4 years of security updates. As that was the promise with all 2024 phones with out of the box HyberOS phones
X6 none Pro version with Android 13 yeah but it's already on 14 and you talk about 15 that is just released on beta stage and that 15 be out end of the year like the 14 come in November or something

johan007nl, 24 Mar 2024Which is better,this one or Poco X6 pro???🤔🤔🤔Well If you hit on X6 pro you will not get Custom ROM support..and this one has also don't have good policy software support (2 Android and 3 yrs of sec patch,what dk.you expect) And X6 pro gives you about Android17-18 support but no custom rom support
If you buy X6 ut ships with Android13..and valid upto Android 16 (Android15 is came recently amd that's the big scam for Xioami)

johan007nl, 24 Mar 2024Which is better,this one or Poco X6 pro???🤔🤔🤔It depends both are good for gaming...but would prefer snapdragon variant well optimized also for custom ROMs various modems u will find u will get the vegan leather option here(yellow) u can use device without back case no fingerprints, scratches etc android 14 out of the box, in-display fingerprint scanner....the only case I would suggest f5 if u want 3.5 mm audio jack so bad then only otherwise x6 pro

I’m still waiting for benchmark results for other phones (especially for benchmarks which are banned from running before some devices’ release) and they don’t seem to revisit a model, once it has been reviewed. I recommend that you Google for „Poco F5 AnTuTu score“ and you will get good results.

Is there even a hope in this page that they will update the Antutu v10 score in the phone specs ? This phone was basically released on the time Antutu v10 was released. They can update the phone specs on the Android version but not for the Benchmark score on the new version of software.

I understand why you've made this assumption, but the truth is that qc and materials for Indian models are lesser because Xiaomi themselves have set up manufacture and assembly in India. This was done to provide cheaper devices to the Indian market (as it is an exponentially rising market), and a side effect of that is lower quality manufacture and assembly, and sometimes even lower quality parts (not just lower binned, but actually lower specification). This has been demonstrated time and time again, and Xiaomi has responded by offering extended warranties for devices affected. It's cheaper to risk it and offer repair for the sake of more share in the Indian market. This doesn't mean all Indian devices are bad, it just means that they're currently more likely to spontaneously fail.

Rebin Tunign, 09 Mar 2024This or X6 Pro for emulation?Poco F5 for the snapdragon processor compatibility with emulators

Rebin Tunign, 09 Mar 2024This or X6 Pro for emulation?Probably best to wait for F6 to see what will it be before decide.
Just to let you know that F5 have only 1 OS update left to get while X6 Pro will have 3 OS updates to come with the phone and 4 years of security. Same with F6
Only thing to go with this over X6 Pro is only the 3.5mm jack. F5 is around 1.1M points in Antutu v10 and X6 Pro is around 1.3M points so the difference is not a lot and we still have flagship phones that have not reached 1M points like Google pixel series that even with Pixel 9 wont make it over 1M points probably. But that is enough performance to laste next 5 years no problems in any games on max settings.
X6 Pro biggest problem is probably that it can bend easy under the large camera island part of the phone so need to be more warry on where you place the phone like if you leave it on a sofa and then forget it while sat on it then there is higher chance then with F5 that you can bend the phone or break it.
F5 screen brightness in nits can have what ever number at max 1000 nits under direct Northern bright sunlight i dont make difference with my last phone that was Redmi note 5 Ai that have LCD and 450 nits. Well i have dark mode on too so it's expected to see less.
Poco F series is still poco flagship series and X is there top end middle class or light flagship as with X6 Pro performance jump from 600-700k to 1.3M is big one since F5 only when from 800k with SD870 from F3/4 to 1.1M and F6 will probably be something SD 8 Gen 2 performance range that should be better then X6 Pro D8300
I dont expect SD 7+ gen 3 to be better then 7+ gen 2 as 7 gen 3 is around 800-900k range
As the SD 7 gen 2 and 7s gen 2 are around 600k range

Anonymous, 07 Mar 2024Damn so the motherboard issue is only with the Indian model... moreI wouldn't worry ,every electronic device can have a bad batch ,I really doubt the Indian model is any more acceptable to motherboard failure that anywhere else ,it's more likely just more are sold over there so the faulty units are going to show up more .
You have to rember that everyone treats their phones differently ,you have no clue what those people with motherboard failures did with their phones , a lot of people debloat the hell out of these phone and then brick them when an update comes that require one of those apps they've just uninstall ,either that or drop it down ten flights of stairs and then complain it doesn't work no more.
