If you truly compare Dimensity 8300 Ultra with Snapdragon 7+ 3rd gen you will see no other advanced for QC then single thread CPU performance (thanks to X core) but with a cost in comparison to sustainable performance. If you compare GPU's they are on pair regarding peek performance but MALI in 8300 have small advantage regarding sustainable one (while it's a big progress on Adreno side compared to 8 gen 2), NPU on 8300 is a little bit faster and so is the cellular modem. What differs is final product cost and difference isn't so small.
I ain't into gaming on phone (use PC for that, as I always did) but like to have capable phone. Arguably in full blown Unity engine build all mentioned one's can push 20~40 FPS regular/boosted with everything maxed out. Reference is Principles Prologue teach demo.

Edit: forgot to mention one advantage Dimensity 8300 Ultra really have it's AV1 video decoding support which is still lacking on all Snapdragons.

    So if you bought a Poco X6 Pro hoping to install a custom ROM, you're out of luck. You would need the regular Poco X6, which does use a Snapdragon processor and is viable for custom ROMs.

      Anonymous, 23 Jul 2024True, but you're not explaining in much detail either.... moreIt's about a week of waiting from when you sent request. It whose always like that. Put at the side that I whose a XDA developer long time ago for Xiaomi Mi Max and in short been there and done that, there is a zero reason to do that now and for MTK SoC powerd ones. Sure some things can be better, there is some bloat and adds but it's far from very annoying that you can't put up with. Relax and enjoy the ride.

        Lmao, you're talking to them as if they've constantly put up fake stories everywhere, even though it's just one random commenter. If you want to counter them, then try providing reliable sources yourself.

            https://www.androidauthority.com/xiaomi-hyperos-bootloader-unlock-3383687/

            Bootloader unlocking has always been disabled by default on Xiaomi devices, regardless if they're on MIUI or HyperOS. This doesn't mean you can't unlock them, but it's not a straightforward process like other brands allow you to as soon as you unbox and turn on your brand new phone.

            In order to unlock the bootloader for Xiaomi devices on HyperOS, you have to go to their community forums and ask for permission. Then you have to wait until they grant you access to unlock your phone's bootloader. This is more or less the same process as unlocking the bootloader on MIUI.

            Xiaomi claimed this is to increase security, prevent data leakage, and for stability reasons. But it wasn't to prevent impulsive behavior that would lead to bricking - that should be users' own risk for wanting to install custom ROMs.

            However, all Xiaomi devices with their bootloader unlocked won't be getting software updates unless their bootloader is locked again. This applies to phones with MIUI 14 and HyperOS that are still receiving updates.

            In conclusion, yes you can still unlock the Poco X6 Pro's bootloader, but it can be a lengthy process with consequences that will surely turn some enthusiasts away. No one should be forced to wait a whole week or more just to get approval to mod their phone.

                I got this phone now for less than half of what I paid for a brand new 2020 phone. Things kept breaking and the costs add up. I checked the used price but fear similar issues or breakage will happen. So I doubled the used price of the old phone to buy X6 Pro.

                And depending on where you live, some banks are becoming more paranoid that even a simple dev options activated will crash the app.

                No thanks. I'll sell my X6 pro in 2028, add a few cash and buy the Poco X10 Pro. 😉

                  Secondly, some manufacturers including Xiaomi are now preventing people from unlocking their bootloader for root or installing custom ROMs. Xiaomi stated that all devices released this year that launched with HyperOS including the Poco X6 Pro will have their bootloader locked, so there's no chance of ever installing a custom ROM on this phone anyway.

That's the opposite of what I said, you can prolong obsolete hardware like out-of-support phone with custom ROM if software is your problem, but if you have a weak hardware good software can't help and that you need to buy a new phone, i.e. big money.
                    Also Xiaomi don't care if you install custom ROM, the warranty is still valid regardless.

At least t... moreThat's not true, there are a lot of phones from Chinese brands that are well-rounded in many aspects besides performance, storage and RAM. The Poco X6 Pro is not one of them, and it shouldn't be. It's a phone designed for performance, for people who can't afford to pay double or even triple for flagships.

                                        Sure several corners had to be cut, like camera quality, plastic body, and no water protection, but those are just things you have to take for granted with a $300 phone equipped with a processor you'd typically expect on a $600+ phone. Just like you can't expect a Toyota Camry to be as fast as a Lamborghini without having to pay more or losing out on several luxury features.

                                        If you prefer something that's well-rounded in almost every aspect, that's on you. Buy whatever phone that suits your needs and budget, but don't make the notion that performance-oriented phones have no reason to exist. That's the same as saying cheaper sports cars like the Mazda MX-5 and Toyota GR86 shouldn't be sold at all because most people find them impractical for regular use. Everyone has different needs and the world doesn't revolve entirely around you.
