The asymmetry I'm referring to is not the area covered by the top and bottom bezels but rather the geometry of the display when the notch is turned off (4 rounded corners for Play, 2 sharp and 2 rounded corners for F1). Though I actually love the idea of the screen on the notch area being used for notifications, battery, time, etc.

            AnonD-778465, 03 Sep 2018Thanks for the reply. As I have said I am not supporter or ... moreI haven't done my research on the SAR values but I've seen someone say it's within normal limits for the Pocophone F1 at least. And this bad reputation about Chinese manufacturers is what bugs me and makes me hesitant about getting this phone (currently have my 3 yearold Xperia Z1). I've seen a lot of reviewers praise the Pocophone F1 for it's built quality and "feel in the hand" and so far only one Indian YouTuber drop tested it where the screen cracked at pocket-height.. (yes I've seen the video) maybe a tempered glass screen protector and a case would prevent such things but I wouldn't know for sure...

            Right now I'm waiting for a couple more reliable and widely known YouTubers to review this device, namely Unbox Therapy and JerryRigEverything who does durability tests and teardown videos which would be really interesting.

              Anonymous, 03 Sep 2018Yes it does. The F1's more rounded corners is just a nitpic... moreNo there isn't as far as I know unless you change the entire aspect ratio. And the point of my reply was that even if you turn the notch off on Honor Play the screen will also be asymmetrical.. But if you hate notches so much then just stay away from these phones.

Yes, currently I am using few Samsung Galaxy Devices. And anyone who can ask me questions about them I say the truth. Buy still I say them to take a real demo before buy, because ultimately it is their choice and needs, not mine.

                      As for Mi or any Chinese devices. I agree that they offer performance, cheaper and have better specs. But again they have some own issues like build quality, high SAR vaule, reliability etc. But still can be value for money if you have specific needs.

                      As for my history here I was very active in J7 prime 1 with same name untill they removed the Google log in. And I lost my old logs. Currently I am on the J7 Prime 2 as main reviewer.

                        how loud is the volume of music when testing headphones? which in the GSMarena test says the sound quality is below average? it should include a quality audio output test with how hard the volume sound quality uses a headset when playing music

                            4nnr, 03 Sep 2018Honor Play also has rounded bottom corners. Yes it does. The F1's more rounded corners than the Play's is just a nitpick, I guess. Though I think it's already decided that Play does better on build and display.

                            But the more pressing issue (for me, at least) is the asymmetry when the notch is turned off. Is there a way around it? A solution to this would clear my confusion on which device to buy. Thanks again.

                                    And I apologize if I sounded angry/rude, I've been seeing a lot of misinformation on here by Anonymous trolls with no account.

As for F1 I read a lot of reviews and seen YouTube videos. I am sure about the hybrid slot of F1, by mistake I mentioned about A8. It was not intended to. thanks for correcting me.

                                      Last but not least I am not saying anyone to buy this or don't buy that. It is your money, you have the right to buy a reliable device or a garbage depending on your will. I can't stop you. Buy if you ask me for advice, I will give it based on the facts and proofs. No bias against anyone.

                                        Anonymous, 03 Sep 2018Really can't believe the opinions/comments/ here. Sometimes... moreMost of the people who answers are real normal users. They are not against any company or work with any company. As for me, I am also not against Mi, but I closely followed the real authentic users, blogs, forum for info about the products of Mi. I remember about the Mi Note 4 which has massive heating issue and screen issue by e-commerce sites and adviced people here also about that. A few months back I almost bought the MiA1 which was a attractive android device for me. I did a demo but at last minute I cancelled is because it has a unique cheater port. And that is god's way to help me. Yesterday I found this article where they mentioned the SAR limit of some of the devices and guess what? MiA1 topped the list.
                                        https://www-forbes-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.forbes.com/sites/niallmccarthy/2018/03/01/which-smartphones-emit-the-most-radiation-infographic/amp/?amp_js_v=a2&amp_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQCCAE%3D#referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.forbes.com%2Fsites%2Fniallmccarthy%2F2018%2F03%2F01%2Fwhich-smartphones-emit-the-most-radiation-infographic%2F

                                        So, I always talked from solid proofs. And if you are saying that this device is good, then you must own it as a normal user and then say it. Don't say it is good because everyone is saying so.
