been using it for a few weeks now and its really nice. glad i opted for this over the samsung mostly because the difference camera quality is pretty much negligible for normal use cases and the performance is way snappier than the samsung.

    Anonymous, 20 Jun 2023How do i install custom android Nobody in here will make you tutorial how to install custom android. There is google for it so you can search tutorials on your own and there is youtube also that give you visual reference how to do it.

    It's like how dumb people get in modern day or is it some serious laziness that prevents you to use your brain

      my f5 is draining its battery so fast and when i play codm (low graphics, ultra frame rate) its getting hot

        Navy23, 18 Jun 2023why don't u try custom ROM. best custom Roms are out ... moreI am not into custom ROMs. I still haven;t gone that far in my skills and expertise in changing a phone's ROM. I could install third-party launchers and tinker with the many settings but I heard Poco is notorious for not allowing third-party launchers. Is this correct?

          Spanky, 18 Jun 2023Definitely the F5, in my opinion. The Redmi only has 2 thin... moreWow...Many Thanks for that reply. That really opened my eye on the two phones. I have always appreciated the speedy UI and excellent performance on a Poco phone ( F3 & F4) though updates can be a bit more better; a newly-released phone could have an "optimised" OS & UI on release but if the company doesn't take heed and listen to the feedback and pushing only 1 major update in a year then that for me it also a let down. In my experience in the past 24 months i found OnePlus to be slighty better though that might have changed this year. What do you think?

                TIKO, 19 Jun 2023Honestly guys, This or Galaxy A54?If you want a new phone for only its camera then go for samsung. But if you want to play heavy games like genshin then avoid samsung unless you buy the S series from samsung.

                  TIKO, 19 Jun 2023Honestly guys, This or Galaxy A54?If you can find A54 for cheaper than Poco F5 it is worth considering if you don't mind Exynos performance. I didn't buy it because it doesn't include charger, costs more than Poco F5 and no headphone jack. The camera on A54 is slightly better than A73 and A52s, both which have SD 778G, almost the same perf, if not better than the Exynos on A54.

                      TIKO, 19 Jun 2023Honestly guys, This or Galaxy A54?I would think F5 is way better over A54
                      Have 3.5mm jack for headphones. Have way better performance chip that is basically flagship. A54 is basically like A52s with it's performance chip power.

                      A54 probably only have better camera but i am not sure as i dont understand much about cameras and it's a last thing i care when i look phones to buy.

                      Also A54 have slow 25W charging speed and no charger in the box.
                      Performance wise from Antutu v9 A54 have 506678 while F5 have 931174

                      Also A54 have under display fingerprint reader while F5 have it on side for power button.
                      Also A54 is 6.4 inch screen but is like only 3mm shorter then F5 with 6.67inch screen as F5 practically dont have any bezel.
                      And if you care for software updates then A54 have it longer but you cant install custom android on it so when it's support end it ends forever. While with F5 you can install custom android on it and go probably to android 20 or more

                                Thats why they provide feedback service in the phone on any related issues, enquiries and request.Their replies is quite fast too.

                                Charger pin not base on specific country should have 3 pins
                                Chipset could be optimize and be utilize better

                                    Gino76ph, 18 Jun 2023Between the Poco F5 and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ which do you thi... moreDefinitely the F5, in my opinion. The Redmi only has 2 things going for it: the camera and the 120W fast charging.

                                    The F5 is vastly superior overall, because it:
                                    • has a chipset with flagship-like performance, which is very important in the long run (about 2-3 times faster than the one in the Redmi, gaming performance plus read/write speeds included)
                                    • comes with Android 13, and will get Android 15 (the Redmi comes with Android 12 and will only get Android 14)
                                    • is light weight, slim, excellent screen-to-body ratio and has a more attractive design (subiective opinion)
                                    • has a battery which lasts longer (according to GSMArena’s tests)
                                    • has a main camera which still offers very good performance, even though the Redmi is better at it
                                    • has a very good charging speed, even if it’s a bit lower than on the Redmi

                                      Spanky, 16 Jun 2023If you value top performance and light weight, the Poco F5 ... moreBetween the Poco F5 and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ which do you think is better and more balanced overall in terms of cameras, performance, the feel and longevity of the product?

Didn't like the screen quality (off white and too bland), speakers a bit weak & soft (and no Dolby Atmos) and the UI is very simple. Prefer something like One UI features with the speed and performance of Oxygen/Colour OS or MIUI.
