This phone has just been launched today in Indonesia, the price is quite cheap, only 4,799,000/$320 (8/256) not including the discount price but includes Cashback $10 and I already bought it 😋.actually i was hoping for Realme GT Neo5 SE but it seems less likely for global release so i bought this 😉

anon, 27 Jun 2023So average build quality=bad now? Im a xiaomi fanboy as wel... morelol 1-3 drops and have cracks. That can be with every brand. It's just how lucky the phone drops or how unlucky it drops.
I have a friend also who is drunker and basically drunk every time i see him. He also drops his phones a lot and none of the phones last him for even half a year and that is including iphones and samsung S class. He bought S22 something year ago and now have it already second S22 cause he manages to drop it and spider web the screen
That has nothing to do with build quality when your phone get damage when dropped

At some point I got a Poco F4, gave the X3 Pro to my wife and she gave her X3 to my sister... a month later her X3 Pro suffered of the same motherboard issue, and we hadn't backed up her pictures on it.
I ended up getting a Z Flip 3 for her as birthday present after that.

Anonymous, 26 Jun 2023What is this run of a mill quality your talking about ? I w... moreSo average build quality=bad now? Im a xiaomi fanboy as well but out of 20 of my friends who have mid-high end xiaomi phones, 14 of them have cracks after 1-3 drops even with cases after 3ish years; around the same with my other friends with midrange samsungs, etc.
To clarify, my definition of build quality is durability,design,and feel in hand-and honestly, poco f5 is very generic outside the specs but feels good knowing you have a sleeper phone among other people ig.
Also as I said, xiaomi software is badd but at least you can flash a good rom on it

anon from ph, 25 Jun 2023Okay, what are the actual good competitors for this phone? ... moreWhat is this run of a mill quality your talking about ? I would say it has better quality then pretty much everything on that price point and that includes all the Samsung middle class phones. My first xiaomi phone lasted me for 5 years and still working while if i would just wipe the screen and change the screen film it still looks like new..
I never will understand what is this build quality people talking about all the time that it's bad or something or good or in the middle. Abuse tests dont show that it's a bad quality on anything. Look other plastic phones in the market and there abuse tests that bend in half and break easy
People who talk about build quality are the people who need to say bad thins to the brand for what ever reason cause they cant pick on anything other but need to defame it still

james, 25 Jun 2023how is the 5G speeds?does this one reach 1Gbps on 5G?If you plant your self under a mast of the 5G antennae then you maybe get the best speed that the antennae is spreading and also how much users are connected. It depends on a lot of things that you probably dont understand if you ask so dumb question

You cant blame that on Xiaomi if your country is not good enough market for them to enter in.

moderate gaming lol
Performance: 8/10 - The Qualcomm Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 chipset with octa-core CPU and Adreno 725 GPU should deliver good performance for daily tasks and moderate gaming.
Camera: 8/10 - The triple-camera setup with a 64 MP main camera, ultrawide lens, and macro camera offers versatility for photography. However, without specific camera assessments, it's challenging to provide a definitive rating.
Display: 9/10 - The 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a high refresh rate of 120Hz, Dolby Vision, and HDR10+ support ensures smooth and vibrant visuals.
Software: 8/10 - The device runs on Android 13 with the MIUI 14 interface. It provides a feature-rich and customizable user experience, although personal preferences may vary.
Design: 7/10 - The device features a sleek design with a glass front, plastic back, and plastic frame. The IP53 rating provides some resistance to dust and splashes. However, the weight of 181g may feel slightly heavy for some users.
Battery: 9/10 - The 5000mAh battery capacity combined with 67W wired charging ensures long usage and fast charging capabilities.
Overall, the Poco F5 offers a good balance of specifications and features for its price range. It provides solid performance, versatile camera capabilities, a high-refresh-rate AMOLED display, and a large battery. However, personal preferences may vary, and it's always recommended to consider individual needs and priorities when choosing a smartphone.
