My opinion, today's Pocophone F1 has been reincarnated in the form of Poco X3 Pro, spotting LCD screen, Micro SD slot, headphone jack. The upgrade we get is 120hz, bigger size and punch hole LCD, bigger 5000mah battery, NFC, better camera, better stereo speaker, better processor SD860 which is repackage of SD855+ but now with 7nm process, bigger internal 256GB and priced cheaper than Pocophone F1.
The other incarnation of Pocophone F1 is Mi10T and Mi10T Pro.
There is also Mi9T Pro and Poco F2 Pro, the latest being Poco F3. Lots of choice after Pocophone F1, just need to be in the region where Xiaomi and Poco has official presence then you will definitely enjoy to buy cheaper smartphone with near high end specs.

Please..I need a quick answer and thanx in advance:
Is it a good idea to buy a brand new pocophone f1 now for 150$ ?
I'm planning to use it for 2 years?
Or better go for a lower midrange phone like the redmi note 11 ?

Poco F3 price now almost comes down to F1 price, and with all the goodies such as AMOLED screen 120hz, SD870, WiFi 6, 5G, NFC, also more storage option standard with 256GB. There are cheaper options such as Poco X3 Pro with SD860, and Poco X3 GT with Dimensity 1100 5G.

This was flagship killer's killer. This still feel snappy and enjoyable to use, despite the official update has stopped, and lasted at Android 10.
I'm not a competitive gamer that want fastest response, and best sensitivity touch screen. I feel that the screen already good enough, maybe the touch response is not the fastest, but adequate for me as casual gamer to play MOBA and FPS game.
All in all, this is the kind of smartphone you are looking for with high specs, low price, with cut corners. It is certainly not the best smartphone, but the highest bang for bucks smartphone.

I never faced... moreHey, no need to be embarrassed about that lol, I'm a 33 years old married man that stills plays a lot since kid too, old gamers we are haha. And working at home office and since lockdown Poco F1 was my partner in gaming too, I believe this "addiction" is healthy to our mind to relax and not being crazy by having such hobby.
And yes I used to play A LOT CoD:M this last year too, I had recovered my account and played for hours too, that's why I was frustrated, since CoD and PES Mobile always run flawless in high specs, just now I'm getting this issue. I'm very sure it may be battery now indeed after testing it with/without cable, will change it soon.
Btw guess what when hard resetting just lost CoD account D: forgot to make all those steps to save account, google login and email register was not enough lol.
Anyway thanks for the tips! Will change soon battery and hope to keep it for more 1-2 years too, Poco is still a beast smartphone, better than many recent models, and would deserve more support from Xiaomi, but glad you have no issues after battery change in actual version.
Thanks!

Syrus, 15 Feb 2022Hey, yeah I thought about battery, since I have it for more... moreYes, I have the same Miui 12.0.3.0 (QEJMIXM). I never faced any issues at all. Runs well. Except it is heating up under direct sunlight using net and full brightness, which I guess is normal for any device.
And for gaming as I have said I played tons of COD:M in 2020 (full year)/2021 (may when I got the vaccine shot). You will not believe me when I say I played about average 10 hours per day during lock down for weeks which felt even embarassing to me as almost 40 years old guy.
I believe I have an addiction issue with that game and only way is to survive from it by not having it altogether.
Anyway since inserting the second battery I have not installed that game and no plan to play it altogether.
First, as I have said, I can't control myself.
Second, now Call of Duty game is under Microsoft, and except LinkedIn and 2 outlook accounts in gmail, I don't use any MS apps at all or preferred them.
As for you, 2 years is too good for Poco F1 battery. Many people ended up in one years and half. If your battery is good, then don't worry. But if possible, you can buy a new one in case if you want to use the phone another 1 or 2 years just like me. I am planning to use mine till end of this year as 5G network will available from end of this year. Then I will buy 2 different 150$ 5G device for home and office use.

Just taking cable out it start to drop fps and freeze, sometimes restart device automatically, and overheats. And putting cable back it stops lol. Seems buggy to me. With PES and other lighter games happens the same after a time.
I thought it was because MIUI since noticed many complains about this version in Poco F1 (12.0.3, yours the same??) and when stand-by and normal use (twitter etc) it won't drop and wont overheats, and very few % lowering. My problem is with games and I guess opening Camera too.
You think battery replacement will help? I was thinking about it, before trying to change stuff like ROM or whatever. I'm really in doubt if is the MIUI 12.0.3 because complaints or battery. Like 1 month before it was running perfectly.
Ty for help!

I advice replace the battery, download the latest patch from your device and reset your device. Just like I did.
Now my device is doing great.

Hey guys, how are you dealing using Poco F1 with MIUI12? I'm having bad issues here, it was all working fine and games running with no FPS drops. Now it overheats and fps drops from nowhere.
Camera/videos are similar issues, and battery draining a lot. I saw it's about MIUI12. So dunno what to do, trying to factory reset and maybe try a ROM or something.
Any hints to recover performance? So sad Xiaomi abandoned such a beast smartphone, at least could give as stable version or rollback to MIUI11, when apps were all working fine and games at high specs with no problem.

Played a lot of Call of Duty Mobile in 2020 and half of 2021. Also used other apps. My original battery died in last month (January 2022). I bought another one from Amazon at 1250/ Indian rupees or 17$. Replaced it by myself and my phone is doing fine now. I will used it till next winter when I will buy another 5G Snapdragon device.

rdd333, 10 Jan 2022Any one updated their F1 recently and what phone should I r... moreI have replaced my battery with the second original one by myself and happy with it. All my apps runs well like new. And I am not a gamer anymore. My plan is to use it for another 6 months after that I will add another device (actually I use 2 devices for last 10 years, but have to sold my device in 2020 to pay the EMI of F1) with it to decrease the load on it. 2 4G Sims and 2 separate places take up battery for sure.
Anyway, as for now there is no other Snapdragon 8xx series devices which are priced like Poco F1. But 2 good Snapdragon series are there.
First is Snapdragon 730/732G which is best for performance like poco F1.
Second is Snapdragon 695 which comes with 5g for future proof.
I will choose anyone of these SoC from Poco or Moto for sure.
