That makes the F7 Ultra an attractive option next year when prices have dropped. Even better if the phones are picked up by the modding community like the F3. LineageOS for the F3 is very solid and gets very frequent updates.

Using android auto with 2 satnav apps, while browsing and watching youtube videos and occasionally phone calls in between, get about 8 hours till it drops to 40% and i decide to plug it in then 🤷♂️
Xiaomi tends to have their sales on release, got my 12/512GB for £425 on amazon UK, no longer available though. Good luck in your region for a sale

Having been disappointed with a Pixel 8 (small screen, so-so speakers, washed out display, so-so performance) i bought an iPhone 16 Pro. I sold it as i miss Android.
My question: Is a Poco F7 Pro good upgrade* over the Pixel 8?
or wait for the Pixel 9a?
Or get an F7 Ultra instead?
* my priorities are specs that are more better (albeit slightly) than the Pixel 8 on cameras, performance, battery life, speakers & audio, etc. I do not like big/tall/wide phones hence i chose these ones.

Gaaan, 03 Apr 2025Yes and no, not everyone can experience every brand in deep... moreI have not experienced lag after owning a couple these cheaper devices.
You need to clean up the device once a while such as by doing resetting or even go further by installing cleaner custom rom (but it won't likely be your option as flagship phone usually won't allow you to install custom rom).
I suppose that if you know what you are doing with your device, a budget phone can be real good.
That being said, everyone will have different experience anyways.

It's a shame there is no e sim in the F7 line up
And there is no wireless charging for the F7 pro

I have owned those big brand before, also owned those clean OS brand. At first, it does feel good, really smooth and no bloat, works as it is despite those are not the cheapest that can be found with almost similar specs. However, no matter how, specs is specs, it get lag quickly if you really floor it with heavy stuff such as game, raw power don't keep up with the price. Also for it's clean OS, there are many UI parts that are not so user friendly, where for some custom UI, the UI is more straightforward than the vanilla one.
It is good and bad, I never hate vanilla UI, but they are near to boring. I prefer custom UI more. I do know can optimize the UI with third party launcher bla bla bla, rooting, use custom ROM.
For me, a POCO F series such as this POCO F7 Pro is what I need.

No, if you want a proper experience - before purchasing one, do enough researches and try out as many devices as possible.

This new generation of POCO phones has arrived to disrupt the market. Never before have such powerful features been offered at this price and with complete reliability. I've been using the F6 PRO for almost a year, and with excellent results. I only upgraded to the F7 PRO to upgrade to the Snapdragon processor. I've considered buying the Ultra, but I might do so in the future. In this case, I think the price difference doesn't make up for the performance.

I w... moreThose are for certain people, this POCO also for certain people, that's why only certain people will appreciate what it can offer at the price. The rest, some might complain the UI is not vanilla, has ads in some of the built in apps. For me, it is just fine, I have the POCO F1 now as backup phone and it is still usable, nothing wrong with it, it just work.
