Finally, we want to tell to the all bad market people. Indians always believe good and affordable products. Once you achieve the market with good and honest hope you will be the pioneer and leader. Now POCO is leading. Indians will never think about foolish sentiments. Hope the bad marketing will ends up. Regards,

    Neil, 19 Jan 2020Dude its your fault you don't know about pocophone. Name meaning aside this is the best smart... moreI'm not so sure about F1 being the "best phone of 2018." I guess a lot comes down to what one finds important.

    I found F1 to be reeeally chunky, the super-wide notch made the front ugly, it didn't have NFC and the camera was merely so and so (not bad, but Mi 8 and newer as well as all of the mid range phones with the 48Mpx modules had better).

    In the end, compared to similarly and even lower priced phones, I found it to lose on most fronts and only win on CPU speed (which is moot, because the competition is arguably fast enough) and battery (which is fair, but not enough on its own).

So xiaoweioppo can release 5-6 models per year not 25 each. Also, if you can't afford a good phone, maybe you don't need one. It's a luxury.

So far, it's doing a pretty good job challenging them.

                      Name meaning aside this is the best smartphone of the year 2018
                      Instead of name calling like what the poco means you should think why this little" insignificant" or small phone won hearts of literally 100+ million buyers of this phone. Do you understand? 100+ million sales in mobile world?

                        I'm a little afraid of this ...though now they can sort of set their own prices and make their own choices and whatnot ... but now that they're independent from Xaiomi, I hope that it doesn't mean without the help of their former parent their prices hike up to meet competitors...
                        The only way Poco F2 can make a big splash again like the F1 is to drop to about $300-$400 for an updated SD865, 6/8gb ram, a more full screen display, 64/128/256 GB storage, triple cameras (regular, macro, ultra-wide), headphone jack, Micro-SD card slot, 4000+ battery.

                        What do you think? Do you believe that becoming independent will be for the best for the Pocophone's future products?

                                I have not seen a single device of this brand, so, I can not say anything about it, but, for spanish speaking consumers, the name is really laughable, "poco" means little, minor, insignificant, lesser, inferior, etc, unfortunately

                                  Realme XT is not mid class. It's already have AMOLED display and under display fingerprint. In my country, it's more expensive than Redmi Note 8 Pro because Note 8 Pro still using LCD and back finger print. But the back cover of Redmi Note 8 / Pro is already made by glass altough it is mid class. Redmi K20 is upper mid range.

                                    Please - no notch! My partner has the Pocophone F1 and loves it. I love it too but will not buy a phone with a notch (and I don't want a camera 'looking' at me all the time so it's no good hiding it under the screen). Offer a Poco F2 with pop-up selfie camera, bigger battery, fast charging, a 5 X telephoto main camera and 90Hz screen and it will conquer the world... But whatever the Poco F2 brings, please, please, please NO Notch.

                                      Honestly I don't see the appeal for this brand now, especially with many flagship grade phones competition at sub $500, e.g k20 pro, x2 pro, reno ace and maybe rog phone 2 of 2019 phones
