Hello every one ,
Im considering to get pocofone, and i wanted to hear some suggestions from you guys that are actualy using the phone.
Currently i have Mia1 on pie update , with google camera , and ota working , i did it back on nougat and since than i've been quite happy with this phone and still am , so i didn't play with custom roms with it . Before i had a nexus 6 , so i love stock android. My moms S4 jfltexx is dying , so i will give her my MiA1.
And the only phone worth it on a 350$ phone right now for me seems pocofone. Only concern for me is miui but im open to it ,as i've never tried it before.
How has been the experience to you guys. I've seen a lot of reviwes on youtube, and for me it checks most of the boxes, but hearing from users here on xda is always better :victory:
I mostly use my phone for youtube, reddit and xda , and randomly play pubg with friends, no other real gaming. And i love HEADPHONE JACK :laugh:
Sorry for long post , and thanks for any suggestion.

Go for it, if you like MIUI cool, if you don't flash Pixel Experience rom and you get stock Android back
Better get Asus Zenfone 5z or 1+6T If you can spend a bit more.
I have Pocophone for over 1 month now and i love this phone. Some experience touch issue lag, but i don't, the stock camera is not that good indoor or low light, but you can install google camera apk with night mode here from xda and the image quality will be flagship level, video quality with stock camera is good with 960 fps slow mo, 4k 60 fps and 1080p image stabilization. The screen is good, build quality is good, MIUI is good looking in my opinion and has some extras that stock android doesn't have, before this i had a nexus 5x and i was a fan of stock android.
I moved from samsung note 4 to pocophone and i must say i will never again buy samsung. I love pocophone i think is best value phone , go for it
6T or poco?

Hello Xiaomi users,
I currently have mate 10, it is good and all, but kinda boring since I cannot mod or install custom rom and update to Pie is taking a long time!
So I can get the Pocophone f1 for about $280 from my friend and i m asking you if it is a good deal ? or i will be regretting moving from mate 10 to poco ?
I guess the snapdragon 845 is way better than kirin 970 and poco has 6 gb rams (4g ram mate 10)
But moving to poco i ll be loosing camera quality and screen resolution ?
What about the phone call quality, and wireless connectivity over wifi and cellular ?
Also, do you expect that the dev community for poco will grow after oneplus 6T release ?
Thank you and sorry for the so many questions, it is just my first xiaomi phone.
:highfive:
I've left huawei for pocco and I don't regret it. The pocophone is a very good phone the updates are regular and the development community is very good.
Go for it! Go for it!

Oh great! and what Huawei phone did you have?
how is your experience with Poco's wifi and GSM/cellular connectivity on calls? Heat and battery life?
Also do you expect the dev community will grow?
what is encouraging me is this good price!

My old phone is Huawei p8 lite 2017 and Honor 7x (honor is dubsidiary company of Huawei).
The battery life is just awesome (4000mAh) I've intense usage and the battery life is just perfect.
The connectivy is pretty good (same as quality call)
If you are going to buy it I recommend you to buy a quick charge charger because the original charger is very slow.
For the user interface, miui is better than emui (is just my opinion) with more functionality and more update.
The camera isn't the best in the market but it's good (with gcam). And Poco plan an update for enable 4k60fps
I've got a mate 10 before my pocophone.
+ Battery is better on pocophone
+ Phone is faster then mate 10 (snapdragon vs kirin..)
+ No heat at all.. never...
+ Fast update, unlock root...
- Touchscreen lag on pocophone.. while typing on keyboard or playing game (annoying)
- Call is better on mate 10 both got VoLTE but i can't active vowifi
- Signal quality is not better on pocophone, i've used to have 4G in subway and now i can't use internet while i'm in train
- Camera better on mate 10
wifi bluetooth is the same, gps seems better on pocophone
4G band is better on mate 10 then poco
I don't have touch screen lag problem on my phone

Hi buddies!
My 3 last smartphones were Samsung ones (A5/2016, Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S8) and now I'm thinking of trying something different.
I have nothing to complain about my Galaxy S8, but let's say that I'm tired of it.
I use the smartphone mainly for for social media and taking pictures, so, the camera is the more important feature for me.
Thinking of a new smartphone, I have Xiaomi Mi 8 and OnePlus 6T in mind.
I had in my hands the Mi A1 and Mi A2, but never used one with MIUI.
How about the screen quality? Will I notice too much difference switching back from 1440p to 1080p?
Is Mi 8 camera better than Galaxy S8's?
What you guys have to say about this deal?
No, you won't notice the difference between 1440 and 1080. Screen is excellent but s8 screen is a little brighter. Nevertheless xiaomi developer team is really really slooooow don't expect to be up to date with Android releases. I mean I am running 8.1 on mi8 (flagship) while the S7 is already on Pie.

Xiaomi updates every week ONLY Beta Builds. S7 has PI look it up I can show you some picture later. Please stop confusing people glorifying xiaomi dev team.

Most of Xiaomi users even don't know what is MIUI Beta/Weekly and the Global Stable ROM is very slow to update.
I had the S8 and made the change to Mi 8.
At first, running the Global stable rom, i was kinda let down. Hdr didn't work, camera was not good and headphone audio volume was low.
Then i installed the Global beta rom (based on pie). All the above problems were fixed, the camera if you want to install the bsg Gcam is Amazing. Stock is good too but Gcam is miles ahead. The norch support is improved, you can now get notifications on status bar.
The mi 8 is snappier ( touchwiz is laggy).Battery on this thing is really good (geting 7h SOT on miui). The Mi 8's screen is a downgrade but not as big as i first thought. I played many videos side by side and could notice "blacker" blacks on the S8.
My opinion is to go with mi 8 if you want to install a custom rom, to make it pixel-like or AOSP in general.
Imho even a Redmi note 6 pro would be a massive upgrade from any Samsung device.
Can't stand their roms and bloatware. Great hardware but awful software.

S7 has Pie only on custom Roms! Mostly on crappy AOSP Rom's where the battery life and camera quality is really bad.
Mi 8 and also Poco has Pie on official Beta from vendor. Even the S9 didn't have a official beta from Vendor with Pie (as far i know, but don't keep an eye on S9 dev).
Please keep the facts! Has nothing to do with glorifying someone.

No. You are confusing them. S7 has no official OTA pie update. S9 does not have stabel OTA pie. Infact, both Xiaomi and Samsung are really slow.

In principle, I advise you against it,
I have Mi8 it is very good phone at an excellent price, I moved from Galaxy Note 4
Mi8 battery life is great, usually I get +7 hours of SOT, and sometimes I reach 48 hours of use on one charge.
display is great, colors and brightness
I don't play games on it but the performance is smooth in general
the design and dimensions are very good also
the finger print sensor is fast , convenient and well placed.
charging is faster than Samsung's
I have used Samsung's software for years and I like, but you can easily get used to MIUI.
the stock camera software is not that good, but you can use a Gcam port like I do.
I have one complain about the Mi8 which is the speaker loudness, it is nearly inaudible if compared to my previous Note 4.
if you "need" a new phone immediately it will be a very good choice at a budget.
If you are looking for an upgrade from the S8, I think you Mi 8 is not a suitable one, neither the OP6T, especially with that in-display slow andn insecure finger print sensor.
I explained my reasons here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8/how-to/love-mi-8-t3876024.

You will notice the difference in sound quality if you have an In-ear monitor (IEM) like KZ ZSN.
but price wise, and performance yeah I will definitely choose Mi8. will just need to unlock and tweak the audio. cheers
I've done it myself and I can say that I love the MI8 for its overall performance and MIUI10 which is to me so far the best Android experience. I do miss some stuff tough like the wireless charging and IP68 certification which was really nice to have. But I don't regret my purchase.

Just upgrade to miui 10 pie and see difference
Based on Dxo after update mi 8 score same as mi mix3 [103]
I used s8 plus and mi 8 camera side by side and mi 8 camera so better than s8 in Photo .
I have my note 5 running pixel experience and it's working well. My gf has an old iPhone 6 and she needs an upgrade. Is it worth it to just get us both povos and flash PE on them?
As good as Pixel Experience is it's still early days for that ROM on the Poco. The stock MIUI ROM still runs better and faster than Pixel Experience (MIUI is no slouch and gets 300 thousand in Antutu where Pixel Experience is 50 thousand points slower) I would just buy the phone and wait if you really want Pixel Experience ROM

It shouldn't be long till they have official release and the stable PE should be at the same level. IMO AnTuTu scores aren't everything. Miui is too complicated for my gf and I don't want mi cloud or the spying.
POCO is worth it still or wait 6months for f2?

The F2 is just going to be a refresh of a F1 but with a bigger screen and better cameras but still keep the same SOC. You are right Antutu scores are not everything but they are a good indication. You don't have to have Mi Cloud (I don't) and it really depends on where you are in the world or how much you believe Xiaomi are spying on you. All phones spy on you to some degree

If the phone is setup right then that shouldn't really bother anyone but it does for some reason.
I am pretty happy with PE in my poco. I came from Samsung J5 (2015) so i most be not that sensitive because I didn't notice any differences from miui for daily performance. The phone is bloody fast and responsive so I would say go for it for sure...

They promise too much with this phone and we are constantly told to wait for basic features. Let's just say we were promised dolby and qhd 60fps back in September still nothing.
Dolby soon
Netflix HD soon
Qhd 60 fps soon
1080p 60 fps soon
Best you wait for a version 2. Too many issues currently.
I wish I went for the oneplus 6 it's eis is perfect, not kidding it's 99% stabilizated you can see videos yourself VS this wobbly mess.
Currently there are 2 main problems on the custom roms, the EIS for Google camera doesn't work and once you watch a video in HDR your phone will be stuck in HDR mode until you restart it.

For Netflix you can install a modded version and have HD...
For videos you can use ported MIUI camera.
I would say go for it, worst case scenario, you sell your phone later and buy the F2, best case scenario you will see people just like to complain, for its price its so good.
Happy costumer here...

I saw a great deal and pulled the trigger! Bought a POCO for 267$ off someone that kept if for a couple weeks. It's in perfect condition and bootloader unlocked. I flashed twrp and pixel experience?
Hello guys, I'll keep everything short.
I own Pocophone F1 , Should I switch to essential? What are cons and pros of Essential phone? It's on latest pie right now (I gave my Poco to friend for a week, he gave me his Essential) and fingerprint option is missing from settings, Can it be fixed? Is Camera "That" bad? Is battery better than Poco?

I had both....both are great but roms on essential are limited....digitizer isn't good and signal strength isn't good on essential....but I loved the small size
No way I don't think it's an upgrade, there are people regretting buying an essential instead of a pocophone.
Their only upgrade is the android q to look forward to.
Camera is still bad.
I'm still wondering if I should get a note 8 because their prices dropped.
(the vr the large 6.3" oled screen and pen looks so nice for around 350-400 usd. Plus the one ui pie is released)

There seems to be an issue where you can't use substratum or any software to modify android system
Is it wise for me to sell my redmi note for lg g7 bcus the gaming performance on the note 10 is not good and the g7 uses sd845 and it's cheap
Why you buying a d€ad company device ?
Lg shutdowned !
and Redmi note 10 not for heavy games and the hardcore gamers won't be satisfied ! it's just for 150$ what you want more !?
beside , if you want gaming and cheap device go for Poco x3 pro.

Thats the issue I am not satisfied, about lg I don't really care about software updates, but the note 10 is really smooth when during day to day task and have a really great screen.

I see no choice. Either way you have to compromise even if you get the LG G7 unless you spend a little more in some completely other phone which is better for both gaming, day to day task and has a great screen.

You're welcome.
It's fine for light gaming. Even some heavy gaming. Depends on the game. So far all the ones I play have been great. I just upgraded to this from a Redmi Note 7, and I am happy.
I just bought and use this RN10 (4/64, all usual 'treatment' by me, nothing special) for my daily phone for about a week, it's a beautiful entry level priced phone, but... aside of many positive things I like from it;
I see stutter (and/or lag) screen (animation) even for (supposed to be) light games (?), like UNO, Wordscapes, Candy Crush, etc.
(I'm not a gamer, I just ocassionally play those kind of light games here and there).
I'm a bit disappointed about this. Because with my old Asus ZF MPM 1 (same 4/64, same 'treatment', same home WiFi and all), those same 'light games' does not stutter/lag.
my RN10 is still in stock MiUI 12.5.2 now.
Perhaps it's the MiUI?
Because I think the hardware should be good enough (not stuttering/lagging like that) for those kind of light tasks/games, right?
(But in my son's (more than a year old) Redmi 9A 3/32 with stock MiUI,.. those stutter doesn't happen).
What's wrong with this Redmi Note 10, or what wrong did I do?
It's my 1st time using Xiaomi and MiUI.
I'm going to Unlock its BL tonight or tomorrow, after waiting Xiaomi mandatory waiting time for 168 hours.

I just bought and use this RN10 (4/64, all usual 'treatment' by me, nothing special) for my daily phone for about a week, it's a beautiful entry level priced phone, but... aside of many positive things I like from it;
I see stutter (and/or lag) screen (animation) even for (supposed to be) light games (?), like UNO, Wordscapes, Candy Crush, etc.
(I'm not a gamer, I just ocassionally play those kind of light games here and there).
I'm a bit disappointed about this. Because with my old Asus ZF MPM 1 (same 4/64, same 'treatment', same home WiFi and all), those same 'light games' does not stutter/lag.
my RN10 is still in stock MiUI 12.5.2 now.
Perhaps it's the MiUI?
Because I think the hardware should be good enough (not stuttering/lagging like that) for those kind of light tasks/games, right?
(But in my son's (more than a year old) Redmi 9A 3/32 with stock MiUI,.. those stutter doesn't happen).

Yes , definely is the MIUI... i have tried the latest 12.5.4 Global (Factory Reset ofc) and there is lag , overheating and much stutters in the system... of course doing basic stuff , i'm not a gamer..
and same case... my grandmother have a Redmi 9A 2/32 with the MIUI 12.0.17 and that phone have a much better performance in the system and games than my Note 10. WTF!!?
So , i switched to Custom ROMs...
The difference in the performance is like x100 times ... so Custom ROMs are the choice if you want a decent experience in this phone.
MIUI is the worst trash ever....

Confused thing for me is that Redmi 9A uses same MiUI 12.. strange.. but maybe the optimization Xiaomi does for Redmi 9A hardware is better(?) I don't know.
Now, my question is;
What Custom ROM do you use now?
(which has 100x performance like you said)

Yes , probably but is just unfair... Note Series should be better optimized but we know that Xiaomi loves to release a lot of phones instead of work in software...
Now i'm currently using crDroid 7.12 with latest WestCoast Superfast Kernel... the best in my opinion.. i love it

Nice. I will try that crDroid.
Before crDroid, what else of Custom ROMs you have ever tried on Redmi Note 10?
