I have seen lot of review videos on Youtube for this phone. All the reviewers have the armoured version. Means Xiaomi realises if they had sent the normal plastic version, the build quality would have been ripped apart.

Xiaomi is fast becoming Samsung. Samsung gets trolled for using plastic bodies on phones costing 15k and having mediocre hardware. The only thing that makes this phone into a headline is 'SD 845 at Rs 20k'. That's about it. Rest of the aspects including design are just forgettable.
The first phone that I got was a Redmi Note 3 with SD650 at about Rs 11k. And it had metal build. Now Xiaomi is charging almost double, body is plastic and main camera has gone down to 12 MP.
They have lost the way. I was expecting them to launch Mi 8 in India which would have been a worthy challenger to One Plus which is selling so well here. But they have chosen to introduce a watered down phone which makes no sense. I could get a Honor Play at about the same price and it has better display, better build and a comparable camera setup.

Finally a no nonsense phone. It gives what truly matters.
Speed
Battery life
Better than average camera
Better than average screen
Robust network performance with latest tech
Latest bluetooth tech (with aptxHD)
Quick charge.
Designed like a phone
If you ask anything more than this then what u'll get is a lot much expensive phone which are already present in the market.
Just a combination of better screen and camera will cost you more 20K to 40K(INR) depending on the brand you go with.
Awaiting to get a hands-on experience to see if the specs live up to the mark .

SilentKiller97, 23 Aug 2018They have edit the actual endurance of that 4000mAH battery... more4000 mAh is enough for a day of high use (wi-fi, browser, games, calls, music, etc).
Most of the SD 845 smartphonesare only 3500 mAh.
But, of course, more the battery range the better.

Anyone can tell me why Xiaomi launch poco f1 while they have Mi8 with latest SoC ?
I mean the specs are almost the same, so is it not better to own Mi8 ?

You should own at least a Redmi Note 3 to realize what Xiaomi is actually capable of stealing market from Samsung even with just a low price phone.
You can't direct compare a smartphone with triple price different, then say the more expensive one is far better.
I own a few Xiaomi, and also a few Samsung. Definitely Xiaomi with later/newer model are as reliable as Samsung, and from day to day usage, it doesn't lose much caliber to Samsung phone, even at one third or half the price. Yes, only thing that not as good are the camera and video ability, which I mostly pass the job to the much more satisfying DSLR rather than a Samsung smartphone. For social media sharing usage, Xiaomi camera and video are more than enough.

Guigui, 22 Aug 2018I get that for Asia. But there gonna release it in Europe t... moreBefore NFC, there is the smart card/credit card/debit card/purchase card, which act the same as NFC. So, I can still pay without the NFC, not so hard to carry a smart card around, probably can put inside the smartphone flip case, which normally what people are doing in my country region.
But with recent NFC implementation, I think near future NFC will become the standard feature of a smartphone, just like WiFi/LTE/Full HD resolution.
Other reason NFC is removed is because NFC is still not fully materialize in most part of the world.
Of course, if NFC is important to you, then look else where.
