    Anonymous, 01 Jun 2023How about the color saturation? F5 looks a bit washed out for meYou can adjust settings in display to adjust saturation unlike samsung oneui it has very limited control over display settings and i compared side by side my cheap poco f3 vs s23u even has better and more accurate color. S23u display looked very inaccurate the white color is very off(even adjust settings rgb or whatever won't help some complains at samsung official site but they don't do anything the whole years since s10)..

            Very tempted to buy one, the specs on paper are good, color accurate display, fast performance, decent battery with quick charge, 3.5mm jack, good speakers, etc...

            I would say the only downside is the camera and USB 2.0, if i ever buy it i will keep you updated on the product.

                No SD card - no good.
                I have Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S 128GB with 1TB SD card (93% used) and waited for over a year for a TSMC 4nm Snapdragon, and finally when they launch one, Xiaomi launch with no SD card slot.
                Furthermore, the maximum storage is 256GB despite the Chinese version comes with up to 1TB.

                    I bought this Phone and it's doing very well in terms of gaming, browsing, responsivity and all-round camera, i would recommend it for anyone who's looking for a powerful phone with cheap price!

                          Leanzazzy, 16 May 2023That's exactly the reason SD cards aren't used an... moreFor local data storage, external SD cards are fine and their speed is enough for usage. The culprit is the the "Scoped storage" introduced in Android 11 and above which slowed down the performance of Storage Access by 20-30 times. Internal UFS storage is also affected equally but is apparently not visible because it is already way faster on hardware level and 20-30 times slow access is not felt by the user. But if you try the push it to the limits, you will feel that in some cases it is even slower than the external cards. E.g. I used to have 15000+ short video files in a folder in sd card. In a video player I was able to play back to back in shuffle mode without any lag. With the scooped storage it would take 10+ second to jump to the next video. When I put all the videos in the Internal UFS 2.1 storage, it would still talke 2+ seconds to jump to the next video. So the meaning is clear. Storage access has been slowed down to an extent to kill sd cards.

                              For global version owners of Poco f Series, have you experienced issues like deadboots or whatsoever? It happened when you did update the firmware or even not? There's no hate intented. I'm just doing some survey as I plan to buy this unit. Thanks

                                But if you (like me) come from a predecessor (Poco X3), the innovations are simply too few. I was looking forward to the Amoled display, but colours were just not displayed nicely and look much better on my old device. If you really want to set and use everything (120 Hz, Wqhd) then you won't get through the day despite the large battery. And that's not the point for me, that I have to turn everything off just so that my battery lasts. The camera takes the same quality photos as the X3. All in all, it's too expensive a change that wouldn't have been worth it in my eyes, so I returned the device.

                                  What I like about typical Xiaomi phone is that they are durable and good all around with good value, except for a few things - camera (but you can argue that why would you need a best camera from a phone? buy real camera instead) and the size (they are usually too big).
