Yeah Meizu 16T is price about the same, but better specs. Can't wait for it to come out.

This phone is inferior to Meizu 16T in almost every way. And let's not forget Xiaomi's famous terrible sound when recording videos. I don't know if it's present in this phone, but I am not risking it.

After using this phone for 1 year, I'm really satisfied with it.
I know, every smartphone has issues, but this phone is what it is, the cheapest SD845 smartphone that you can buy at that time, with cut corners.
It is for it's intended market, for it's intended user, who appreciate it's performance it brings at low price.
Yes, it doesn't comparable to smartphone that is higher price, but it is good at it's selling price.

abouhalima, 20 Oct 2019Is poco compatible with qc 4.0+ because some people say thi... moreHere is the 2 edges answer.
I think any smartphone with type C port support the so called QC4.0, QC4+, as it is actually USB-PD. The only thing differ would be the charging speed, the voltage and ampere drawn.
I have tested a lot of them, this Poco F1 charge at 9V 1.6A, around 15W with QC4.0/QC4+ charger, is actually a bit slower than when using QC3.0, which operate at 6V 3A, 18W.
However, both charge full at around the same time, from 0 to 100% around 2 hours.
So, my advise is, you no need look for QC4.0/QC4+ charger for this Pocophone F1, as it doesn't increase the charging speed than QC3.0. Using quick charge is quite difficult to say will affect battery life time. It is depend on the quality of battery, not really direct related to quick charge itself. However, every battery will degrade no matter if you use quick charge or not.

Now it is my long term review, after one year: It is all the good things you hear about it, non of the bad .... at first it had one or two issues and now even those are gone(still none of them were like what i was hearing around the time...they were minor and never made me restart my phone) ..... from day one till now it only once got out of power and even that was due to overnight downloading ... so no restarts due to crash or getting out of power for me only due to occasional updates. while back camera is above average(infact in very good category) but about front camera because of lack of autofocus in front facing camera it is not what you really want... it is still very nice for Instagram but if quality of selfies really matters to you don't buy this phone.

bilal, 24 Oct 2019I am using Poco f1 since 9 months & its a dud in front ... moreXiaomi has gotten so many quality issues in the past few years. The frame allows more customization while there will be more bugs. OV obviously beats Xiaomi in $300 - $400 market this year.

bilal, 24 Oct 2019I am using Poco f1 since 9 months & its a dud in front ... moreYou hanged a Snapdragon 845 SoC in your F1? What do you run? I just bought a new one and even PUBG runs smooth on HD without heating/hanging. And Call of Duty looks absolutely stunning. I am pretty happy with it. If anyone needs performance, then this one is the best under 20k.
Other then that go for Nubia Magic 3S which is the coolest device for now.

I have decided to start own game streaming as serious hobby for now. And decided to go for a 6GB/128GB model under 20K with snapdragon SoC. Last year it could have been only F1, but today it is very hard as so many models are there. So, I decided to do research and finally chose F1.
Bought it from a local store, cost me about few 1k more, but at least they checked the device and I set up it on this shop.
Anyway come to device. My review:
1. Build quality is solid, feels very premium. I have used the A50 and A70 in family and this device is as per them.
2. Display, it is also good, not as bright as Amoled (which has too bright colors).
3. Camera is also enough for casual photos. Took some selfie and night shots, they are good. But I need some note say to tweak the settings in the camera app.
4. U.I.is fast, neat and clean. The poco launcher is super cool with themes and cuatomization. The device comes with very few apps like Mi and google one. No annoying Microsoft apps or Samsung apps (I am galaxy user).
5. Performance. This is my most favorite part. I palyed the "Call of duty: Mobile" in high settings and it looks amazing. I mean the shadows, blood effect, blast effect, smoke eveything looks so convincing. Same with PUBG, It started with HD settings, I palyed my first game on "Miramar" as solo mode and won my first game as everything is so crsytel clear.
5. The battery life is also very good. It lasts long for one day with moderate use.
Overall I am pretty happy and satisfied with the device. At near 15K.it is the best considering the snapdragon 845 SoC.
last but not least the "Game booster" app which is best to run the games.
Today I got some major ans minor OS/security patch updates which made the device run faster.

Anonymous, 18 Oct 2019How is everybody Pocophone going in terms of durability? Ha... moreI bought the kevlar version, as I don't really like larger phones, and putting a case on the Poco, even a thin one makes it too wide, bulky and heavy for me.
It's stood up well with six months use. Decent amount of grip in the hand. Have got a screen protector on though....
