XIAOMI WON

>Durable polycarbonate body instead of weak glass
SOLD! Buying the shit out of this. I can't tolerate slippery aluminum or glass. This is what I've been waiting for three years.

fucking hell this

I don't give a fuck about the notch. These specs at this price makes it an insta-buy for me.

No nfc is a dealbreaker.

>notch
Dropped

>proprietary Android
fuck off Chinese NSA

Not even shilling, but touchjizz has come a long way.
And even then, no one's forcing you to use it, just get a different launcher. Disable all the stock Samsung apps you want, but keep in mind that the gallery and email apps are still fucking amazing.

how the fuck can this not have nfc?
how the fuck is a phone made in 2018 NOT waterproof? what is this fucking shit?
a notch? kys, xiaomi

China actually doesn't use NFC that much cause qr code is the hip there

Does it at least have a headphone jack?

>CyanogenMod/Lineage isn't good. It just isn't.
not that guy, but recommend me something better

meh, LineageOS or bust

Fuck off

Shouldn't take long to start getting LineageOS build, a week or two at most.

>touchjizz has come a long way
my xz premium with a snapdragon 835 is faster than both s8 and s9, both on exynos. there's just something really fucking retarded about samsung's android that makes me and my friends stay the fuck away from it.

xda-developers.com/xiaomi-poco-f1-developer-community/
Literally every AOSP based ROM, which Poco will have supper for. Even Treble support if you want nothing but AOSP.
It does.
>how the fuck is a phone made in 2018 NOT waterproof?
Because the majority of smartphones and specifically 300 dollar ones have IP ratings.
>a notch

Support for*

LCD is a deal breaker for me, after seeing for myself how much battery OLED saves I'm not going back. Sticking with my OP5 by now. The next pocophone, if they continue the way they are going now, might be my next purchase - custom ROM support will be the deciding factor. >And even then, no one's forcing you to use it, just get a different launcher.
Kill yourself, retard.

no u

Does it have a notification light?

yes

S9 is the fastest Android phone, though. You must be mistaken.

how do you use the nfc option?

Slower than most phones on the same SOC, both in benchmarks and in real life.

scores high in benchmarks =/= smooth in real life

No replacible battery or MicroSD? Fuck off shill.

It has microsd you blind fuck.

>replacible
What?

>400$ outside of India
I'm not a shitskin.
>no AMOLED
>no removable battery
>no NFC
>no IR Blaster
It's not really worth it. I'd rather buy an LG G5 or Galaxy Note 4.

It has mSD

>no IR blaster
Another blind fuck

If it didn't had the stupid fucking notch I would buy it
But I rather stay with shitter phones without a notch

These tests tell a different story.

Source?
>no removable battery
Not a thing past the V20 and similar LG devices with defects.
>no NFC
Not surprising, especially considering the phone doesn't aim for the US market. At this point I'm convinced it's only viable just in the US and a handful of European countries.
>no IR Blaster
>I'd rather buy an LG G5
Good luck when it inevitably bootloops and takes all your data with it.
>Galaxy Note 4
Hardware from 2014. which is destined to lag either way and especially thanks to low quality EMMCs Samsung used in it and the original Note, Note 2.

disregarding the notch, we have SD 845,
headphone jack and rubberlike body for this price point...
holy shit

At this point, Redmi Note 5 becomes less and less worth it. And as you can see, it can be disabled.

>disregarding the notch
Don't forget .

Redmi Note is still a decent price lower, so for someone on a tight budget it's a no brainer. Poco is making Mi8 and especially Mi8 SE questionable, that's I think one of the reasons they went with an entirely new name.

got a pic of that mode with notification bar visible?

When can I expect this phone on chinese websites like Aliexpress, Gearbest and Banggood?

fucking look for videos on youtube, it's slow next to cleaner rom phones even from last year. fuck samsung and their stupid shit

youtu.be/C_H4948n1wQ?t=223
tell me how is this possible? how is samsung this fucking shit?

>These tests tell a different story
Solely due to a larger battery, it'd easily get 1.5x SOT if it used OLED instead.
>xda-developers.com/xiaomi-poco-f1-developer-community
Plenty of phones with open bootloaders but no custom ROMs. So far I see nothing in the phone's development section, but that's to be expected at this stage - only time will tell.

It's still a bit overpriced in most chink stores but prices should start dropping now that it's officially launched.

>check Youtube videos for it
>literally every one I open is a pajeet

Fucking hell... why do they even try to speak English, can barely understand it

That's gonna change soon. This is one of those phones devs like to buy to tinker with, like the Huawei Y series used to be back in the day. If you break something it's cheap enough to replace and this one is particularly interesting to them because it has the latest snapdragon. There will be a great custom ROM support no doubt, the only issue will be to filter out the flood of Pajeet crap that come with this as well.

>257€ in India
What a flop

wtf are you talking about?
It's 300 USD which is 257 EURO which is 21000 INR

back to pol edgelord

So you're paying 72€ in refugee tax. I'll keep importing my phones then, fuck EU.

Still more useful than this shit. Smartphones are supposed to have a ton of features. It's only been a recent trend to remove features and sell devices at higher prices. I won't buy trash.

>A notch AND bezel
why?

so retards buy an iphone look-alike, that's why
it's literally a phone made specifically for retards, like many other notch phones.

$335 here
sunsky-online.com/view/735608/[HK Stock] Xiaomi POCO F1 6GB 64GB.htm

And official price in Europe is 329€, like it says in the OP.

they're made in india, chinese-made phones are cheaper in china too, duh

Normie apps are usually horribly optimized. I bet Snapchat can still find a way to lag on those specs.

Perfect for Fortnite

Pajeet piece of trash?

Thanks to Treble you can run a pure AOSP ROM on it, completely unmolested by pajeets.

You forgot the best feature, with Xiaomi phones unlocking the bootloader won't void your warranty

Is the notch really hidden well with a LCD panel?

Looks fine enough Can't really tell from a photo though, you'd have to see it in real life.

...

Neither will rooting.

From that picture it still sticks out, you can easily spot the difference between the black notch and the LCDs washed out black.

when do you ever use nfc? must be a regional thing

the notch is maybe because the screen is an off the shelf part? otherwise there's more they could do with it, round those inner corners where it juts out, make the top bezel a bit thicker and the notch less protruding for symmetry with the bottom bezel

Yeah, I'm in northern Europe and I've never seen anyone use NFC for anything.

Where exactly? No one else has noticed it in this thread.

I don't use a compass yet I'd like it to be there just in case I need it. Removing features and saying "eh, who used this anyway" is the most retarded thing anyone can do. Don't be Apple.

I've got my screen on full brightness and face against the screen and I can't still see where the display ends and notch starts in that picture.

i have a pretty accurate monitor and imo it looks good in the pic, not sure what it's like irl tho, but when viewing bright content it will probably be hidden well

since when can they cut lcd screens? I thought they were all (am)oled, this makes the notch an even bigger cancer

Here it is (three minutes in):

>is this a chinese unbox therapy knockoff lmao
Who cares? This is the only video I could find where someone is disabling the notch.

Still doesn't look bad

>the Snapdragon 845 requires liquid cooling

>fuckhuge chin
thats a no thanks for me

...

thats great user, but that still doesn't make up for the huge bezels

No one could've guessed the notch is even there with that screenshot.

>thats great user, but that still doesn't make up for the huge bezels
Why do you care? What disadvantage does it introduce? Are you one of those reviewers with tools calibrated to millimeters for measuring phone thickness?

because it completely removes the (((advantage))) the jews try to trick you into believing the notch has, small bezels.
implement it properly or don't at all, so far I unironically find the Galaxy S9 and iPhone X the least ugly of this modern 'all screen' smartphone trend.

I bought a Redmi Note 2 when it first launched and if any company could deliver a phone to outstrip just about every competitor at this pricepoint and above, it's Xiaomi.
Still I wish we could get companies to follow the yotaphone's dual display design.
I also wish phones would be made lighter weight, with the same battery capacity. I don't care if it's thicker. I also care about thermals. Thermals are very important.

Things that are really thin but also heavy are meh.

I was in the middle of a 10 mile run btw.

It has an IR blaster but not NFC? Why? Why don't they make another global version with NFC?

Just what I need, another item of chinkshit that shows I can’t afford an iPhone
