Typing on my f6, bought it on launch date with 20% discount code, which makes it quite affordable, using it from last 3 days and can say its a beast of a phone in its price range. One of the best phone i owned.😊😊😊
Hello. I'm more interested if the nonstop focus hunting when recording a video (using the main camera) is still present or has been improved since? Are colours on the main and selfie camera show natural, true to life colours the way you see in real life? Is there still skin smoothing on the selfie camera? And are the front & rear cameras HDR been improved as well? I have the OnePlus 10T and not sure if I'll trade in or not.
Interesting and very informative video. I'm still happy with my ancient Poco F1 but the battery is failing and needs topping up twice a day. Undecided between the F6 and F6 pro although I've never been a fan of glass backed-phones.
The F6 Pro is a bit superior and is the rockstar in the case. But F6 is super decent too. And still - if you are happy with the F1 and find a way to replace the battery - why not? ☺️
Great phone, i have money for this upgrade. But my Poco F3 can still handle's the apps that I'm using. i think i will just stick on my current phone now since there's nothing new (i mean my F3 can handle's the apps and games that i used and if i buy this f6 it's still the same experience that can run smoothly the apps that i used) right now my F3 is running on custom rom. PixelOS Android 14. SD 870 still performs well even this year 🥰 maybe I'll just starting to upgrade if i feel its starting to get slow and lag but for now. I'm still satisfied with my F3
Can it use icon packs that have been downloaded from playstore? That's the only thing making me reconsider as my current Xiaomi phone can't but my phone only has early Hyper Os and not the modern verison.
No you can't , poco is actually even worse than xiaomi or redmi because in those you atleast get hyper os launcher, which while also doesn't support icon packs, atleast hyper os launcher has far better animations than poco launcher which is stuck in 2018 with same 5+ year old icons , crappy animations , no hyper os widgets, no way to switch to a different launcher without loosing gesture navigation, you get the drill
7 days late, but I bought the Samsung A55 instead. Significantly weaker processor, but I can't help but smile at my customized everything, and I mean everything.

@TechMishka Thanks for answering. I decided to go for Samsung instead, and I don't regret it. I had a Huawei for 4 years and the day it broke I felt terrible cause I loved it, if they weren't forced to abandon Android I would still have a Huawei. Xiaomi's OS on the other hand is terrible, I would wake up and regret being born because I had to use my phone. 2 years and it was enough to piss me off, never getting a Xiaomi again. Just before I switched to Samsung the system was acting up and wouldn't play audio from ANY Bluetooth earbuds, had to search up tutorials and mess with developer settings to fix it and it still didn't work. Sorry for my little rant but I just have a disdain for Xiaomi from now on, clunky, unattractive, garbage. As a side note I also hate how they try to make it feel like IOS with the looks and everything. The last thing I wanna be reminded of is Apple.
Great video, two questions, how does this compare to the also excellent performing Xiaomi 13T which you also did a review on? I want to buy a new phone for my mother in law. She cares the most for excellent camera usage (only main cam, not front facing) and a good battery performer. If you would like to buy a new phone with this feat. In mind do you advice the Poco F6, the Xiaomi 13T or perhaps the classic Pixel 8? Or perhaps another phone?? Cheers, Jeroen
I got my eye on F6 Pro but for some reason I can't fully trust the poco brand anymore. I used to have a Poco X3 Pro and I loved it up until it died! A random motherboard issue killed it. Then after a little bit of research, I realized that this is a common issue among most X3 pro users! Does anyone know about poco solving this problem in their latest phones??
From my research through comments in another YT videos and FB pages, they said only Poco X3 Pro have a motherboard issue. The other Poco might have other problems, might be the screen, the heat, or maybe little bit connected to the motherboard. I'm currently using Poco F3 but today it just has a black screen. I have used it for about 3 years. It has another problem such as Wi-Fi error, Portable Hotspot error, and weird kind of vibration. But, I gotta say that Poco F3 still a beast if mine still alive.
Let’s be honest: the Poco F6 is not better than the Poco X6 Pro. The f6 is not worth to pay so much more when you have the very similar X6 that’s the fact. Real life experiences…
Chipset is different. Some people have reported heating problems and battery drain on the X6 pro. Also build quality is nicer id say, ip68 Vs ip54. That's a big deal for me as I lost my Poco F3 to water damage.
It's always been this way isn't it? Last year I bought x5 pro just to regret it after the f5 released like 2 months later. Better luck next time for both of us, I guess, hahaha. @@garrylogan8005
@@TechMishka more compact and absolutely better cameras. Additionally ip67 and oled. Tired of big mobiles. I do not use the device for gaming so in what concerns to performance, i do not need those big antutu scores 😉
Finally some reviewer with the green color . If you want better chip & faster 5G speed, aluminium frame body, better display with less yellowish tint & faster 120watt charging, just go all out with the F6 Pro
Single core is better on F6 and multi core is only ever so slightly behind. GPU performance is 15% worse but who cares, performance is excellent on it in gamss anyway.
F6 overall is much better phone for it' s price than pro version..120W or 4k on 6inch screen is irrelevant,aluminum also as the phone is usually in the case. You won't know the difference in the chipset,both great chipset
On yt I saw the ocazional stutter on the x6 while the f6 was smooth, the x6 may not be enough for perfect performance in web surfing, though idk for sure if the f6 is enough either
My F5 still works perfect. I was thinking to switch, but what's the point? For some more points in AnTuTu 😉 Maybe next year when Poco F7 comes . Awesome review though ✌️💪
hardware is pretty good but i don't like the OS 1) full of bloat some can't be uninstall especially xiaomi apps & its app is not good to use. 2) OS level lacking lots of features other brands have like charging protection/ file manager is a mess & many others 3) for some reason i can't find out why - the camera always opened up even without doing anything.
If you're casual, it doesn't matter. Both are good options for you. If cameras are important for you, go for the pro. Both will give you a really good experience about gaming. Also, the pro has physical proximity sensor. If money is an issue, then go for the F6 and you will not regret it
@@katerina_101 I heard that the F6 has a higher tempertature with high demanding games. That could be because it's a brand new processor. It will take some time to optimize the apps for it. In a normal use, you're not going to notice it at all

@@Hanabi276performace of course f6, camera a55 and 13t. 13t is slightly better because the colours are a little bit accurate but the battery is pretty bad on 13t
The poco phones have a major issue : they use cheap components in their motherboards that compromise durability. Especially in the flagship killer territory.
Which leads to the next point: if they were to use the same premium materials as the flagships like iPhones and Galaxies, do you think they'd be able to offer these phones at the same exact price as they cost now? You set your expectations realistically. Of course, some minor compromises will be made to offer such hardware. But for the most part, my Poco F5 has never given me any problem for the past 5 months of use, and I'm pretty sure that it's mostly the same for other models by Poco as well. Yeah, plastic build, not unexpected. But it holds on pretty well, and I have protective case anyway, which negates the point of durability. But the hardware is unmatched for its class and price range.
@troy5568 remember poco x3 pro? All users experienced motherboard failure after a while because of cheap components used inside the motherboard connections. I don't expect premium materials at low price point with high end hardware whitout compromiss, but chinease often go very far inside the hidden areas and cut too much corners where not the ordinary customer will ever dare to verify, is it worth it to spend half the price of a flagship just to throw it away after a short period of time? Only fools would chose this over a durable phone with less specs. But that's the chinese brand's marketing strategy in all fields, their cars are cheaper and have insane options , but they are not durable and spare pieces are no where to be found, just the wow effect when reading the specs sheet, then regret it overtime.
My Poco F3 is still perfect after 26 months of daily usage. The same my old redmi note 4 and 11. So maybe X3 pro had some problems, but this is not a standard for other models.
Your obviously a hater. Why on earth would you watch and comment on this review if you dislike the brand. Go watch iphone reviews or other stuff you like that aren't made in China
@@TechMishka my aunt have Xiaomi 12 with hyper os latest version, but her phone don't have this feature. It seems it's different version of os or only for Poco 6. I don't know anyway.
I wish to have that option too on my F5, as I want to sleep with my phone plugged into charger, and then wake up with it staying at 80%, then continue topping off when I wake up, until right before I leave the house.
Price to performance wise this is just enough, it would be more lovely if it had 1terabyte storage option. What I dislike on Poco F6 Pro is it got a bit worst screen and IP protection than F6.
@@TechMishka I ended up buying the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ for someone because they care about the Camera more than the Pure Raw Performance (She's not a gamer). Your review helped btw thank you!
I'm sorry but,I would definitely consider 6.67 inches as a bulky phone. I don't have large hands, so that may have something to do with it,.....but still.
Thankfully they removed the headphone jack. Headphone jacks are mediocre and give a sense of cheapness. With that said, im pissed i just got my A55 and Poco has just released these. Might go for the F6 Pro for a secondary gaming phone i guess
another sales maneuvering technique from poco, sacrificing intentionally the pro for a better overall profit..the pro being obviously the lesser choice makes the non pro standout, with amassing better net profit because of chwaper materials and plateuing spec as compared from prev versions..poco user here by the way..and was quite disappointed with this..
So average cameras, no microSd, no headphone jack, a badly (kinda misleading as its less powered) named soc by Qualcomm and the needs to improve in the software? Looks like poco missed the mark once again . At least the screen is very good, it's not overheating and throttling much, 3 years os updates starting at android 14 and at a price 420euro is about okay, probably wait for discounts if considering. Would be interesting a comparison to a similarly priced Samsung A55
Performance: Poco wins buy a mile Camera: Subjective (spec wise literally almost the same) Display: Poco Software: Subjective Build Quality: Samsung Battery: Samsung Price: same Protection: Samsung overall samsung is better
You are right - there are some things that are not perfect, but compared to Nothing Phone 2 or some of the latest Realme devices - this feels great. A55 is quite different. Very different SoC and overall setup, but we have to admit that Samsung have a lot better optimized software.
What are you talking about. The Display is excellent & is as good as Flagships The Cameras are never as good but I keep a Poco as a spare & think definitely just the F6 not the pro (& the Waterproofing Weight & Strength of the Gorilla glass is important) Somebody tell me why to by the Pro instead of this - within the next three hours please I don't want to pick the wrong one!🤭💜 🙏💜🇬🇧💜

Brutally honest as usual. I tried to not use the term "flagship killer" and if I did - I am sorry. Believe it or not, it's been 10+ years since we heard it for the first time ☺️ I feel that Poco have done it right about hardware. If there only was a way to use stock Android...

it might have to do with the bands available in your area
Could be down to the bands or the encryption protocol. Or a software bug.
the poco f6 is around 25% less efficient than the poco f6 pro on the gpu
this is because they just overclocked the adreno 730 (found on the sd 8+ gen 1)
overclocking is useless outside of benchmarks bcs it's not sustainable
and they cut down the cache sizes on the cpu so it's nowhere near the snapdragon 8 gen 2 in efficiency
once again benchmarks with no power limit or without factoring in power consumption at all are useless except if you undervolt your gpu to test if it's stable enough
the naming is so bad and i bet nobody cares about the "ai features" of the SoC bcs none of these companies actually implements them

Bruh what's with the price difference in this lineup
@@AVIMANHWA0 I mean the performance and the camera quality. Since the price is almost the same. Which 1 is the best
@@Hanabi276performace of course f6, camera a55 and 13t. 13t is slightly better because the colours are a little bit accurate but the battery is pretty bad on 13t
I'd go with Poco if I need fast charging and faster processor. Samsung has the better software experience. 13 is still a good choice.
@@Hanabi276 Xiaomi 13T for sure
Planning to upgrade from my F4. Love the SD 870, but the F6 is a beast.
It is indeed
the dowgrade is the chipset it's just a rebrand of snapdragon 7 + gen 3
No. 7+ gen 3 and 8s gen 3 has different architecture and different benchmark
@@sa__edits_ 8s gen was just an overclock version of 7+ gen 3 an 8+gen1 is still better
@@aaronpingol1566 Actually it's not 7+ gen 3 is a downgraded version of 8 gen 2 while 8s gen 3 is a downgraded version of 8 gen 3

I may be the only one, but I think the release of these Poco gives real value to the Oneplus 11 🤔
Yeah! The 12R as well
The poco phones have a major issue : they use cheap components in their motherboards that compromise durability. Especially in the flagship killer territory.
Which leads to the next point: if they were to use the same premium materials as the flagships like iPhones and Galaxies, do you think they'd be able to offer these phones at the same exact price as they cost now?
You set your expectations realistically. Of course, some minor compromises will be made to offer such hardware. But for the most part, my Poco F5 has never given me any problem for the past 5 months of use, and I'm pretty sure that it's mostly the same for other models by Poco as well. Yeah, plastic build, not unexpected. But it holds on pretty well, and I have protective case anyway, which negates the point of durability. But the hardware is unmatched for its class and price range.
@troy5568 remember poco x3 pro? All users experienced motherboard failure after a while because of cheap components used inside the motherboard connections. I don't expect premium materials at low price point with high end hardware whitout compromiss, but chinease often go very far inside the hidden areas and cut too much corners where not the ordinary customer will ever dare to verify, is it worth it to spend half the price of a flagship just to throw it away after a short period of time? Only fools would chose this over a durable phone with less specs. But that's the chinese brand's marketing strategy in all fields, their cars are cheaper and have insane options , but they are not durable and spare pieces are no where to be found, just the wow effect when reading the specs sheet, then regret it overtime.
My Poco F3 is still perfect after 26 months of daily usage. The same my old redmi note 4 and 11. So maybe X3 pro had some problems, but this is not a standard for other models.
Your obviously a hater. Why on earth would you watch and comment on this review if you dislike the brand. Go watch iphone reviews or other stuff you like that aren't made in China
@@obscurelight been using f3 since launch with no issues whatsoever
Im watching this video with my Redmi turbo 3 . Lmao.
Neat ♥️
Cant the f6 play pubg mobile at 120fps is the option there
Yes, of course
No.
9:17 looks like a new feature of hyper os. Charge to 80%.
Yeah, supposed to help with extending the battery lifecycle.
@@TechMishka my aunt have Xiaomi 12 with hyper os latest version, but her phone don't have this feature. It seems it's different version of os or only for Poco 6. I don't know anyway.
I wish to have that option too on my F5, as I want to sleep with my phone plugged into charger, and then wake up with it staying at 80%, then continue topping off when I wake up, until right before I leave the house.
Nice roundup.
Thank you ❤️
Camera sensor is Sony imx 882 for poco f6, ltya 600 is for redmi turbo 3
It is better
👍👍👍
they're the same but the turbo 3 just renames it due to china copyright restrictions
this phone seems like a great upgrade for my a52s... still a great phone.
Totally
It's a shame that Samsung hasn't increased the performance in the a50 series since the a52s
You Don t Say that is not having proximity sensor and Don t have always on display
Good points. The first one is standard for many Xiaomi made phones, for the second one I expect a software tweak
So what do you think is the camera better than galaxy a55??
no, but the pro is better camera than a55
This is questionable
This or Redmi 13 pro plus?
I'd go for this one
Price to performance wise this is just enough, it would be more lovely if it had 1terabyte storage option.
What I dislike on Poco F6 Pro is it got a bit worst screen and IP protection than F6.
Indeed
The back design is a no for me,the poco f3 still looks better than these latest models
👍
If a back design is the only problem than this is a great phone..btw back design is just fine to me
Much Better than Scamsung A55 🔥🔥🔥
😁
Its really sad this device doesn't have Always on display.
It has only 10sec display and Xiaomi is deceiving us deliberately when they name it AOD.
🤔
Poco F6 vs Redmi Note 13 Pro+ Best Overall? Or maybe just Camera
Both are awesome. Poco is faster, the redmi might be tad better about camera
@@TechMishka I ended up buying the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ for someone because they care about the Camera more than the Pure Raw Performance (She's not a gamer). Your review helped btw thank you!
no deadboot?
Of course not
I'm sorry but,I would definitely consider 6.67 inches as a bulky phone.
I don't have large hands, so that may have something to do with it,.....but still.
Feels smaller than most in this class. But I get your point, of course.
I should not have bought the Poco F5 last yr, should have waited for Poco F6!!!
No man, should have rather waited for the F7. You know what I mean?😂
There always will be something newer and shinier. F5 is a great phone, enjoy using it.
Thankfully they removed the headphone jack. Headphone jacks are mediocre and give a sense of cheapness. With that said, im pissed i just got my A55 and Poco has just released these. Might go for the F6 Pro for a secondary gaming phone i guess
I should bookmark your comment. Very meaningful and makes perfect sense. 👍👍
Bro why battery poco cycles so fast
Because of MIUI. Oops... HyperOS ☺️
Wireless tsk I need wired
☺️
another sales maneuvering technique from poco, sacrificing intentionally the pro for a better overall profit..the pro being obviously the lesser choice makes the non pro standout, with amassing better net profit because of chwaper materials and plateuing spec as compared from prev versions..poco user here by the way..and was quite disappointed with this..
You mention good reasons.
im still using F2 Pro with SDM865
Lovely ♥️
Next IQoo Z9 Turbo please.
I'll see what I can do about it
the price is too high, shouldd be around 280 yuros
Well... Maybe in 2 years from now ☺️
i just bought this last night.
👍👍
You crazy the Pro way better than the reg stop and go sit down
Okay 👌
ABSOLUTELY GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY
Totally
Watching in my Poco F1
F1 ♥️ Love it
So average cameras, no microSd, no headphone jack, a badly (kinda misleading as its less powered) named soc by Qualcomm and the needs to improve in the software? Looks like poco missed the mark once again . At least the screen is very good, it's not overheating and throttling much, 3 years os updates starting at android 14 and at a price 420euro is about okay, probably wait for discounts if considering. Would be interesting a comparison to a similarly priced Samsung A55
Performance: Poco wins buy a mile
Camera: Subjective (spec wise literally almost the same)
Display: Poco
Software: Subjective
Build Quality: Samsung
Battery: Samsung
Price: same
Protection: Samsung
overall samsung is better
You are right - there are some things that are not perfect, but compared to Nothing Phone 2 or some of the latest Realme devices - this feels great.
A55 is quite different. Very different SoC and overall setup, but we have to admit that Samsung have a lot better optimized software.
What are you talking about.
The Display is excellent
& is as good as Flagships
The Cameras are
never as good but I
keep a Poco as a
spare & think definitely
just the F6 not the pro
(& the Waterproofing

important)
Somebody tell me why to
by the Pro instead of
this - within the next

the wrong one!🤭💜

& you don't need an SD card

8s gen 3 is not more powerful than 8 gen 2 , if looking for complete performance and premium feel I would rather go for the f6 pro.
The display is pretty good.
The cameras ... I think the Pro has better camera setup. The battery is fine, charging and SoC and performance are superb.
What's the name of the game? The one that you play like bomber man. Hahaha
Call Of Duty mobile.
The chipset cant even go ultra, ultra in mobile legends

Do u like ur stay in Bulgaria?😃

@@TechMishka ooo very nice welp u cant stay forever in Sofia,try varna,plovdiv the history is very interesting also try our local food like "lukanka"👌
Why are all those phone reviewers people id never want to have a beer with?
Have you tried? I dare you! ♥️
Naah. Pro is better
it terms of price, the pro is overprice for a phone with only snapdragon 8 gen 2 in 2024.
@@chrysllerryu4171 tell that to one plus🙂
Overall - sounds like it. This time they have two different concepts
bro its material is awful
😔
flagship killer? this is not even mid tier killer.
You good 😂
Brutally honest as usual. I tried to not use the term "flagship killer" and if I did - I am sorry. Believe it or not, it's been 10+ years since we heard it for the first time ☺️
I feel that Poco have done it right about hardware. If there only was a way to use stock Android...
This is an upper mid tier phone bro.
