Two years using my Poco F3 and it still functions perfectly. I still think that the F3 has been beaten in its competition, but that's only because tech develops so fast
Mine too, but i got greentint and blackcrush screen 😢 but the rest is good
Don't upgrade it to 14.0.7 bro. It will slightly decrease the speed of your f3.
@@Alex.HilmanGoddamit too late!
Meanwhile, I'm still using the OG Pocophone F1 (4,5 years). Still a beast and still going strong and kicking major ass.

Me has no problem 14.0.7tkhm
F5 feels more aligned with the Poco's gaming focus. Faster 67W charging, a headphone jack, and most importantly the plastic back.
Their decision to use plastic instead of glass for the back is a smart move. You feel more heat on hands with a glass-backed device and it also weighed more.
Gamers would appreciate these features.
Are poco phones really designed for gamers? I did buy my poco f2 pro because it packed the best snapdragon at the moment of its release. But I cared more about the phones snapiness and longevity and not about gaming. And I prefer it's glass back cover much better since it makes it feel way more premium
Plastic back phones are prone to heat build up inside tho, but comfortable to hold cause the surface has lesser heat than glass/metal back.
Glass/metal back phones are hotter to hold during heavy task is because its spreading cpu's heat, efficiently dissipates the heat not trapping it.
The F3 being 2 years old and still keeping up is incredible. 😮 They made a good phone that year. Wow.
Yeah, that was the only year when Xiaomi could of done such a thing. Now it's terrible. Also what Xiaomi did is nasty. Drive up the price of the phone for 5 months by 70 euros.
Long waited comparison video finally is here! Great video as usual, keep it up Adam!
Loved this comparison.
Things I loved about F5, bigger battery, newer processor, OIS (finally) on midrange.
Things I really really hate about it, Why did they make the front camera to the old design it looks so big and ugly compared to the F3's ones. Just look at 3:02
And the most stupid thing that Poco did on F5 was removing all the software camera modes and only make them available on the F5 pro. (Tracking moving object/AI Camera//etc)
Moving from glass to plastic is subjectively but the glass on Poco F3 definitely makes the phone feel more premium.
The battery life is abit of let down despite being almost 500mah more but doesn't really reflect the increase from F3 but managing to keep the weight down is a kudos to them.
For people who getting new phone F5 is definitely its a good phone to get. But for F3 and even to F2 users, probably just better with keeping the current one and wait for the next.
I've been using my Poco F3 for 2 years and its a mega impressive phone that I don't wish to upgrade anytime soon. The battery is still at 90% capacity because Ive not been charging it to 100% but keeping it below 80%. I can still get a full days usage with no problem, fantastic phone with a great processor.
F3 is holding up really well and is still better than most mid range phones
Hey Adam will you be doing one on the F5 pro?
Adam, I know it's not the topic of this video, but please tell me what equipment or tripod you use to compare 2 or more phones? Thank you
From POCO F1 to F3 user here. I still like F3 than F5 due to the aesthetics and F3 still smooth sailing with smaller front cam.
Been planning to upgrade from F3 to F5. Great big thanks to this compassion.
You will feel more of a difference if you install a custom rom on your F3 than upgrading to an F5. The F5 doesn't really bring much to the table in comparation with the F3.
@@moscalandrei6091 f5 better i used it in dubai
Finally a channel that speaks fluent English. Keep up the good vids!
Adam, could you please do a gaming comparison between the F5 against the F5 pro? I want to knoe is the extra $130sgd really worth it?
Using F3 2 years now my only issue is the very soft vibration on calls when muted. Otherwise I'm not feeling to upgrade to F5 yet. Is my daily driver and Im pretty happy with F3s performance.
Hi Adam, my poco f3 accidently dropped in water. can you suggest which phone are better between poco f5 pro vs realme gt neo 5 (budget version) or oneplus 11 vs red magic 8 pro (koyak version)
Poco F5 doesn't have AOD, it has Sometimes On Display, limited to 10s. Do you know if it is limited only to system aod app or if I download something from the store it will also let only 10s?
I came from an S21 ultra and I'm absolutely stunned with the POCO F5 as my daily driver, not a cellphone cam guy because I own a bunch of full frame bodies and lenses. It has a crappy camera with an annoying brownish tint but everything else is just blazingly top notch..for a $380 phone, it is a KILLER
can you try it with gcam ?
i've seen some shots and they are absolutely stunning
but you have to choose a good one with a good xml
I have a poco f1 and I'm waiting for the poco f5 to finally come to my country so I can buy it. Greetings from Croatia.
3:07 y didn't u show the difference side by side? How much sot increases with 60 hz?
Good to compare these 2!
Yeah!
4:07 The camera size of both phones are same.
POCO F3 (AKA Redmi K40) is using a CMOS called IMX582 which is 1/2" in size, which is same on size with the OV64B on POCO F5 (AKA Redmi Note 12 Turbo).
64MP on POCO F5 means less light can enter each pixel which can be a disadvantage.
But IMX582 only support 4K30fps and OV64B on POCO F5 can support 4K60fps video recording.
Combined with the better photography computing ability brought by 7+ Gen 2, the overall camera performance should be better on POCO F5.
I have the Poco F1 since the release and now i already upgraded to Poco F5 about last week ago
Good choice! How is the experience of the F5 vs the F1??
@@kxngblaxnoF5 Speakers are on a bad side, no bass it sounds
use a fan cooler if your phone is heating you can play non stop if you have a fan cooler one or two
I will continue to use my F3, because it is enough for my daily usage. Maybe in 2 years Poco will make a significant upgrade.
The only thing that they can update is the cameras. Anything else is working flawlessly
Me 2
I never change f3
I only replace battery bcz now i have 84 percent health battery that is kinda bad my current counter
Only measure
3890mah
Until fully charged
That means i lost 780mah this is very bad
Mee too and the f3 still support AI image engine with the MEMC and AI HDR enhancement
@@danajamal8404 how did you measure battery health？My poco F3 battery life is getting very trash right now.
It would be better if the antutu benchmark was shown for both units.
Sir good day can u compare the poco F4 and poco f5 thank u
For me, one of the F3 users yes there's a lot of changes when upgrading to F5. But it's all depends on the user. As for me my F3 still handles the games that i play like CODM, ML. And no problem running the other apps I don't want to upgrade yet. As long the SD 870 still manage to handle all the apps that I'm using there's no a reason for me to upgrade. In terms of camera yes the camera of the F3 is the weak spot but it can solve the problem by using gcam. Battery is good enough I've never encountered battery draining issue 😊
what miui are u on?
Mee too I love my f3 and the f3 still support AI image engine with the MEMC and AI HDR enhancement and they too it away on the f5
Hi Adam, great comparison as usual. I finally got my poco f3 around 850 and now its being my daily device
Congrats! It doesn't disappoint 👌 It's gonna be one of your best purchases ever
@@Markone99 Thank you sir. Surely I'm glad use it as my daily device. No issue at all😁👍
Great video, my friend
Thank you very much!
Absolutely brilliant! "Like comparing two donuts -- both delicious". Hehehehe
I am using poco f3 my phone have a problem
if you placing the phone the phone reboot what should I do
Nice this is what I waiting for the comparison , I still satisfied my poco f3 performance, only bad thing is there is no miui 14 version available .
The F3, runs MIUI 14, built on Android 13, but next year, it won't get MIUI 15, built on Android 14.

Finally the video I've been waiting for 🎉
Glad to hear that! 😃
If you come from an Poco F1 or F2 pro i think this is a great upgrade. But i feel that it is a minor upgrade in terms of day to day experience from the Poco F3.
Since the F3 is still being updated in 2023 and is still powerful enough to handle everything you throw at it i will wait for the next generation of the F series. Outside of just wanting a new device, there is no real reason to upgrade.
But if i had to choose now i would probably go for the F5 pro because of the QHD display and wireless charging which is actually an upgraded phone experience.
Anyway thanks for the Review Adam Lobo🙏. This was the review i was waiting for since the release!😁👍
Agreed
Not a huge update, my f3 still runs like new. I use custom rom now since software update is discontinued from xioami. but that only made the experience better! maybe I'll save up for now.
if 7+ gen 3 will be better than the 2, and some other aspects, definitely will get the F6.
Very nice!!!
I heard that after update most poco phone on the screen lose the Dolby vision and hdr+
Hi Adam. I'm looking forward to your comparison on Xiaomi 12 and Poco F5 and here's the reasons:
1. It is common to know that nowadays people call Snapdragon 7+ gen 2 as Snapdragon 8+- gen 1 due to the performance being similar or even better than Snapdragon 8 gen 1 without considering its freaking temperature.
2. In addition to point 1, Xiaomi 12, a flagship level phone, is obviously weaker than Poco F5 on performance, but since Xiaomi 12 is a flagship phone, I would like to see your review of the difference between other sections like design, photo and video quality and more.
Hope to see this content soon😶🌫️
Thanks for your suggestions, I am in the midst of doing a comparison video between the Xiaomi 13 and the Google Pixel 7 first then probably will look into doing this buddy
In camera I bet the 12 will crush the f5
@@AdamLoboTVhii adam can you try Xiaomi 11i star performer vs poco f5 i need to now before i buy :)
Plz compare F4 vs F5's camera!
Lobo , great
Hi, not sure if my comment will be read or even replied duirng this stage.
I bought the Poco F5 Blue 12GB 256GB variant after doing much research for a month. Bought it during 11.11 during a flash sale for about the equivalent of USD 300. The funny thing was I upgraded from the previous Poco flagship the F3 which I had for 2 years and unfortunately I lost it last month during a train ride. But oh well.. I was also previously a Poco F1 user which I had for 4 years. So I can safely say that I am a Poco user veteran having used all the odd numbered Pocos. LOL
I was seriously contemplating this phone with the Nothing 1 phone as I am a huge fan of Carl Pei's take of Android and his Oneplus legacy. The Nothing 1 phone is just one of a kind. But in the end the flash sale of the Poco F5 gets the vote from my wallet.
So far this phone has been very smooth and a joy to use. I am used to MIUI so the interface familiarity is there. The SD 7 Gen 2 really feels fast and snappy for anything thrown at it. I have disabled all the ads from MIUI so now the phone is totally ads free, which get rid of 1 sore point of MIUI. I don't game on my phone so the gaming performance of the phone isn't that relevant to me.
What surprised me was the comeback of the 3.5mm jack! Great to reuse my corded earphones left lying in my cabinet after I switched to the F3 from F1.
Just that from the F3 there were some downgrades at least on paper, like the 360hz to 240hz touch sampling rate, and apparently the camera sensors are using Omnivision sensors instead of Sony sensors. But it doesn't feel like a downgrade in real world experience.
I am not sure if GCAM at this point is an improvement to the stock camera. Can you advise if this is so? And which build should I use?
I also missed the ''Clear Speaker'' feature of the F3. I am not sure why Poco didn't retain this feature to help clear dust from the dual speakers.
My humble feedback :)
Hey buddy, thanks for your extensive feedback my friend, comments like this are always appreciated 😃
Not much of a camera user, so HAIL TO THE KING 🤣
Thanks for this review. I guess, I'll wait until POCO F8
Gonna stick with F3. change battery and replace MIUI with custom ROM and its good to go and feel like new. Maybe next year will decide to change.
Same. The lower screen brightness on the F5 is a killer for me, i shall not buy F5.
In terms of screen, my F3 has DolbyVision, I don't know its version, but mine can use this technology with ease.
I was struggling to choose between F5 and F5 pro. But I has to choose F5 since the F5 only left 6+128gb where I need more ram and Rom. But after watched your comparison, I am so regret to choose F5 pro cause the F5 has better selfie lens and Dolby vision.
Hi how’s your poco f5 now?
Best mid range flagship killer 💥
i watched your f3 review video like few years ago, and I buy it even tho from secondhand and got blue color, not white or black :( at least the phone runs fine for almost 1 and half year for now I think, and this video saves me money because I don't need to buy f5, or maybee I need to grab my pocket a little bit deeper because if i want to upgrade i need more than poco f5 🤣
guys i need help, is it really worth it to upgrade from realme six pro to poco f5 even though my budget is quite short but i can manage it. if its not possible tecno camon 20 pro 5g is my second choice.
You've gained a subscriber ☺️
Sweet comparison 🥰
if you think it worthed to upgrade to f5 from f3
I want upgrade but there no something like force me to do. App development so slow compared tech itself.
Did you live in Indonesia? 😮
i will stay with my POCO F3. Thx for the comparison!!
yea me too
hello adam,I have poco f3(mi11x in india)
and want a video on the features of this device which I might don't know and
yeah it was a very satisfying and factful comparison of both the phones
Thank you. I'll keep my F3 until I find a better alternative.
I dropped the F3 from waste height, just 1 time and it cracked, 2 barely visible lines horizontally. It even had a protective case. Seems very unlucky, like it precisely fell on a little stone or something. Can this be fixed? Or should just go for the F5.
You need screen protector
i dont know if upgrading from note 10 pro would be an upgrade at all...but gcam would helped this phone a lot ... a youtuber KTNTECH said that gcam changed everything
In terms of power and smoothness I think it's a great upgrade.
Watch on my poco f3 still beast :)
Poco f3 MIUI version 13 or 14 sir?
Why poco phone not sold at xiaomi physical store?
F3 is really a good buy for me got mine brand new last yr for 245$ 8/256 variant and i say it's the best for that price and i think this thing will last until until 2025 considering mine just took a dive into a drainage system that's @bout 50inch deep and still works I am typing on it right now
I got Poco f3 8gb 256gb for 330 euro. Now Poco f5 costs 400 euro and the only better things are snapdragon 7 gen 2, 67w charging and 5000mah battery. But overall it's not worth upgrading if you are not a gamer.. Cameras on f5 are much worse.. Waiting for f6, i hope it to has 2x/3.2x camera instead macro sensor and 13mp instead 8mp ultrawide sensor.
Watching from F3 and still rocks!
Definitely getting the F5
One year using my poco f3 - from Philippines ❤
Woah ur Malaysian never seen this new kind
Terima kasih brother
luv u bro
Love you too man 😃
I just want a phone with good battery life fast but I don't need crazy fast I don't game at all and takes good pictures but when I see all reviewers they say the camera is ok but when I see comparisons it the same or little difference
Yo tengo los 2, y puseo asegurar que la pantalla del poco f3 es mucho mejor que la del F5, incluso trae más opciones.
F5 VS MI12T please!
Poco f3 has MEMC feature which alone should be the reason to choose over F5.

My brother have Poco F3 & i have the Black Shark 5, but I don't Understand why F3 has ULTRA FPS (90-120fps) in CODM, but other phones with the same cpu and gpu run codm 60fps!? Like F4 and Black Shark 5 🤔😑
I want buy new phone just for CODM
Please tell me Poco F5 Pro can run CODM in 120 FPS? Or suggest another model
THANKS
Ive owned the F3 for 2 years now and am very happy with it. Cameras are a little lack lustre, but the F5 is t enough of an upgrade to tempt me to swap up.
The F3 was an epic phone for the price when it came out. The F5 doesnt seem to match the bang for buck of the F3.
In India however during the great festive sale i managed to buy it for under 250 bucks, so I have no complaints 😂
Yeah. It's gotten more expensive and pricing it in dollars doesn't help much either.
@@okbro10what a deal 🎉
Nice job, Adam🙂.
Thanks man 🙂

Thanks for the kind words and compliments 🙂
My poco f3 died, TWICE, the only repairs available was reballing the chip. Barely lasted 2 years. Loved the phone but died way too soon, wasn't even gaming on it. f5 pro is probably my next pick.
Hey guys.. I've been thinking about buying new phone soon(2023).. Which one should i go for?... Is it F3 n hoping it will still be relevant in the future eventho its already about 2 years old now or just go with F5 because you know.. It's new
If you have the budget, go for F5 🙂Newer phones of course have the support for latest updates so yeah. But still depends on what you need. If you don't care about MEMC thing and other aspects mentioned in the vid that once present in F3 but not in F5, go for F5.

CrDroid A14 is badass for the F3.
Typing this comment from my Poco F3, amazing device with ridiculous price, I'm thinking about F5 Pro 😊
Is the POCO F5 better? Yes! But keep in mind that it's almost 50% more expensive and it does not offer 50% more in terms of performance and overall features. If you have an older phone it might be worth it to get the POCO F5 but if you have the POCO F3, the upgrade to F5 is really not worth it as it offers almost an identical experience.
yes i already suggested my friend the poco f5 bcs his phone for codm it shit
It depends if you bought it on sale.

Is poco f5 able to run pubg on smooth extreme?
Yes it can..I played it with high settings..Run smooth like butter..
Watching this on my F5
I have been using the poco F3 for two years with high pressure on my phone such as using the high refresh rate and i didn't see anything wrong . ( One time I played pubg for 2 hours continuously and the performance got a little bit lower )
And another thing that i want to mention for someone who plays a lot of games on poco F3 is when you play an hour with your phone , give a 15 minutes rest for it and the performance will still be on top !!
Do F3 vs F6
