Anonymous, 15 Aug 2023That is when you go with the popular custom rom you probabl... moreMy first try was with Asus Nexus 7 2013 7inch tablet that ended with kitkat 4.4 something and i went with custom os for it and ended around 6 or 7 as when i stopped using it.
My last phone as redmi note 5 ai dual cam i got only 18 months of updates of any kind but that phone cost only 170 euro so that was good enough. I had like 5 years in use so 3.5 years after last update i was on android 9 and there is no difference in your daily dealings on my phone to notice any difference. In the end of the day it's just a number as it does not mean apps lose support on them. Before Android 16 i wont care about custom OS as F5 should end like Android 15 and warranty in Europe is 2 years mandatory for electronics
As then be good time to update your phone to a new OS skin and the phone feels like new again as a lot to discover.

Does this phone have 'hitting' issue? I have heard that when you touch the phone, it hits you back with tremendous force as if its alive.

You go with it, then you're stuck with its spyware.
Even suppose you can use adb to debloat it, you still won't be able to remove the entire spy code in it.
So basically your suggestion is Pay more and Get less, that's very smart.

-just go with a popular custom rom then.
Kind of pointless to buy 1-2 years old phone to just install new OS on it first thing out of the box and then have the chance to lose warranty for the phone
-How long does the warranty last? Then install one after warranty expires.
-Doesn't seem like you've actually tried a custom rom. Try one first and then let us know.

Danish07, 14 Aug 2023Good phone with low end processor From Snapdragon there is only 3 chips as 8+gen1, 8gen2 and soon to be released 8gen3 that is better then this 7+gen2 and your talking about low end chip. In what universe you live in or what mushrooms your eating so much to mess with your head ?

Bubbleir, 11 Aug 2023Depends on your needs. If you need good cameras and basical... moreBad advice.
If you are serious about photos, go with REAL CAMERA and learn to work on photoshop.
F5 is not only good for games; however, good overall as for a phone.
And if you want anything processional, get a computer.

aBaDy94, 11 Aug 2023Poco F5 is better option as the Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 2 is ... moreProcessor power is really subjective as most average users won't notice much anyways.
But what it matters to me is availability of custom roms, hands down to snapdragon.
