Love at first sight, Phenomenal device, a wait made worthwhile, the only thing between this and perfection is a better macro camera; nitpick, i know, especially for the criminally low price i'm gonna be paying for it.
Getting this or the pro model soon btw😍

How much did you pay for it?
Where exactly did you buy it from?
Some EU outlets include, among other things, a headphones in the standard retail box, in addition to 2 - 3 years warranty, which is rather unheard of when it comes to Xiaomi phones. Xiaomi has historically been reluctant and dislikes offering EU style warranty. I'm both positively surprised and impressed by how these outlets managed to force Xiaomi adhere to EU law.
I seldom watch those Indian reviews on YouTube, because I don't understand "jabrabadaba". However, If I get some free time in the future, I might attend a course in Indian English, because learning it could facilitate communication with our brothers and sisters in the Southern Hemisphere. Learning the accent is not the only challenge, you also have to learn how to shake your head simultaneously in a highly characteristic fashion while talking, believe me when I say it's not easy. If you don't shake your head at a certain pace and direction, they won't understand what you're trying to communicate, even if your verbal communication is perfect. So you can't just shake your head sporadically, at least not in an Indian restaurant, because your shaking monster will determine how much hot chili they will put in your ordered food. All this explains why I don't watch Indian reviews on YouTube.

I have bought my unit in Italy from Amazon at €399, it came with everything, Charger and Cable in the box (67W) , sim ejector, a trasparent silicon case, a pre applied screen protector ( i recommend to remove it and apply a better one since its just plastic) and the promotion gives one pair of earphones in the box.

JimmyTheGreatest, 01 Jul 2023Thanks for sharing your personal experience with the Poco F... moreBuying out side of EU you get the TAX and that makes the phone cost same as you get from EU shops.
There is youtube that is full of phone reviews just type "Poco F5" in the search and go trough a lot of it as most are India language reviews where they jabrabadaba and some go mix in english but there are also full english reviews. There are even durability test videos of it.
What you get in the box is 67W charger, 1M long cable for charging and silicon case that is good enough so you dont need to buy something different. Case goes over camera and over screen that 0.3 or 0.5mm that all cases have and the phone should have some screen film on the screen from factory. I am not sure as i have not tested to see is there a film to scratch some corner of the screen to peal it of and then it wont stick back or get some dust under it or what ever problems that usually happens with that type of action.
I dont know any phone brand that give you protective glass with the phone and now days to get headphones with the phone is only in a bundle deal as these days are long gone where phones come with headphones. To have case in the box is already a good thing and then to have charger in the box is start to be rare and especially fast charger like this 67W
Unboxing videos should show you want you get. It's better to go to watch some video reviews done by people who do loads of these reviews. There was even one video where F5 camera was compared to iphone 13 max ultra or something like that.
Asking randoms in random sites comments section you wont get ideal answers anyway

Akame, 01 Jul 2023Bend easly? What do you mean by that? Like as in trying to ... moreI tried the sound on some dnb to see the vibration of sound. The speakers just make a lot of noise at max and yes it feels some vibration close to the speaker holes.
My old Redmi note 5 ai dual cam audio didnt go that high on the one speaker it had and also it's body is in Aluminum
And yes the rear cover have some flex on pressing lightly to feel that there is some space under it that is probably good for cooling the phone so your body heat wont make the inside of the phone hotter. But for that i cant say it's like bad build quality
Just the way you explain the build quality is weird that surface of the rear is fingerprint magnet. I would think all phones that even have glass backs have it as fingerprint magnet.
And for the sound that makes a bit of vibration close to speakers is more of the sound waves and the camber for speakers. With powerful speakers the vibration is expected especially on plastic phones. You compare iphone that has metal body to plastic is unfair yes. Also the edges of the phone are not rounded cant be said it's bad build quality as thats just the design. Easy to fix is to get a case for the phone that has rounded edge.
Build quality means how the phone is built. Like is there large caps between screen and the body or when you shake the phone then the inside hardware is lose that you hear it go around in it. Or the phone frame is weak so the phone can be bent in half like in these phone abuse tests where even iphones bent in half and broke on the antennae lines
My english ins't that good also as it's not my native language and it's also self taught
