NFC is not just about payment, it can be used to reload payment card as well.
I know, for some country, it is almost redundant since you can do the same at many store, but on some country, it simply isn't.
Since smartphone NFC can be turned on and off, this has added security than the said wave payment card.
NFC definitely is a good to have feature.

They are good about getting spec info in detail, but never accurate about battery health as far as I can see (especially if you are using fast charger).

Great phone, i bought it at the start of the 2019 6gb ram, 128 rom version. It still works great in january 22nd of 2025... All i had to replace in that time was the battery that i replaced in 2024 and thats it.. camera is still dicent if you use gCam, after all it has same camera sensor as google pixel phones like, pixel 5, pixel 6a, pixel 4xl ... Today it will finaly go to 2nd phone section, because i bought Poco x7Pro. It was a nice 6 years run with poco f1, and i highly doubt i will ever find phone that will work as good as this one did for that long.. amazing phone, that still has some life left for simple users
.. the only thing i did miss and its the reason im replacing it is lack of NFC sensor. Other than that... Amazing phone. If new Poco x7 Pro will last half of that, i will be happy.

Am I the only one here who's still using this phone with its official MIUI ? I neither installed any custom ROM or nor rooted.
Yes MIUI is laggy, you can visually see it when using the phone but not to the point it is unusable. I had used upper midrange Samsung phone in the past, after 1 year its touchwiz UI became so much laggy, many times you couldn't use the phone and heating like crazy.
Poco F1 also heats but not to the point what I had experienced with Samsung.
I bought in early 2019, 6/64gb
2021 battery changed
2024 display cracked due to my own fault and installed third party display (some weird unnecessary touches happening nowadays)
2025 battery changed again.
Definitely my best phone purchase of my life, some issues are there but hey nothing is perfect.

Anonymous, 22 Sep 2024Hy guys
Can I ask, what did you buy after the F1?
Cau... moreSo if anybodys wondering
My battery got so bad it couldnt last half the workday at work. Even when shut off the battery drained like crazy.
But after 6 years I think that that is to be expected.
So I decided to treat myself to a new phone and got me a Pixel 8a.
Wanted to try the pixels and I liked the "stock" experience on the F1 so why not.
Little comparison for anybody interested after a month and a half:
The good:
Screen is brighter
Phone is faster (like duh, 6 years between them) but not that fast (more later)
Camera is better (although I dont really care about the cameras and am a noob, I can see the pics are better, again not ground braking but better)
The same:
Battery - I get 2 days, same as with F1 at the beginning
Signal - for me its the same, places I had no signal I still have none, where I had I still have (not using 5G mind you)
Worse (for me):
Software - Pixel experince Rom was miles better, like you cant change the position of the navigation buttons so I have to use the gestures, the new Interent and Bluetooth toggle buttton that everybodys complaining about on line sucks, there is so much nonsense that you wonder what the Billion dollar company is doing when a guy in his mothers basement doing this part time can make a Custom rom with faaar beter user experience
Other:
Heated once during first time I updated it, since then its been fine (although I dont game much and can imagine it heats up during gaming)
Speed - so, considering the wow factor I had when getting the F1 this feels lackluster. So either we are at the performance peak or I dont know what. The phone is not slow or anything, just lacks the wow factor. I would constantly be amazed with the F1, like years later would use it and say damn this is fast, so glad I bought it. Doubt it will be like that with the 8a.
All in all I am satisfied with the 8a for now, not wowed like with the F1 but pretty happy all things considering
