Anyone, 03 May 2019It is because that there will be no space for the notification icons as the notch area blocks ... moreYou both are aware that the notch can be hidden, right? Youl'll lose a bit of screen real estate but you'll see the notifications without any obtrusions. Hopefully they'll correct this on the Pocophone F2...

This poco f1 is able to browse all day long in one full charge. You can use 10-12 hours havy use with uninterrupted.

Anonymous, 12 Jan 2019LOL ROFL Poco is the most innovative of 2018. Seriously is GSMArena this is your review?
You ... moreReally? You do realize in day to day use most of those features don't matter? Plastic body? Don't care, I use case anyway. Fragile display? Not sure, I use a screen protector. No OLED? Not an issue, with it's big battery ambient display is possible even with an LCD. Sound quality is good, the camera is great for 320Euro phone (if you use Google Camera of course!). What makes it a flagship is indeed the SoC. Something a lot of people care about. I don't watch netflix, when I want to watch something it is on my Plex server and I watch it on my computer, on a good, big monitor so display resolution or lack of any HDR is a non issue for me. As for the bleeding, the only place I can spot it is on the lockscreen. Not in Youtube playback, not in calling, not in web browsing, not in the camera app. So it is a non issue, yet again.
The reason why GSMArena dunks on flagships is because of the lack of innovations they provide. With S9 to S10, we knew we would get faster SoC, bigger display, better camera etc. Nothing unexpected. If S10 launched with S855 at 400Euros, that would be something new. But it did not.
So, it is not worth trying MIUI 10 again.
I have been a few month Poco user, running HavocOS since day 4 (72 hour bootloader waiting period, remember). Tried MIUI (in Xiaomi.eu form) only once and notifications were a dealbreaker. Or, lack thereof.
How to fit more into the notch? Well, either move statusbar below (yes, MIUI allows that but rounds corners in software for some reason), or just make the clock smaller. I can fit 2 icons + the dot next to my clock.
Second, when I tried Xiaomi.eu MIUI 10.3.5, there were 0 notifications on the lockscreen. None at all. That is unusable.

I'm so confuse which one is better. Honor Play, Nova 3i or Pocophone F1. From Philippines here and I'm kind of hesitating to buy the Poco because of the issues I've read. Better Chipset, 6gb ram. Please guide me who should I buy.
Dear Poco Users!
I have echo issue during calls. Does anyone have that same problem? Thank you for your answers!
Anonymous, 20 Jan 2019Bottomline is, my Asus ROG phone and Mate 20 Pro is better than the Pocophone F1.I agree, the ASUS ROG phone comes with 90 hz display.
Poco F1 user, 21 Jan 2019I have Poco F1 and the "No notification icons in the status" is catastrophic for me. I bought ... moreIt is because that there will be no space for the notification icons as the notch area blocks the middle part of the status bar, and yeah that's what I hate from notched phones. But about it's performance, it is worth it in its price especially when you love games.

s-pen pusher, 26 Mar 2019about the ads in the os, i am not getting them for some reason. my wife has a xiaomi smartphon... moreThanks for all of this info dude ^^

PunkHazrd27, 11 Mar 2019How's your experienced with POCO? I'm also a Filipino and was planning to get this phone, Im j... morehi, sorry it took me awhile to respond. everything so far have been positive. i am on globe telecom and i have had no issues with the network speed at all. as for the phone, i think i got the later batch, which did not have any issue on it. really my only complaint is that there is no room for notification icons on the "ears" of the screen. there also is this occassional thing on the screen that looks like a "burn in" issue, but it lasts only several minutes and occurs very rarely; it is not noticeable at all unless you look really hard. overall, this is a good buy and is getting even better with each update from xiaomi.

I'm also a Filipino and was planning to get this phone, Im just curious if this phone works best with our network here and also about the said ad filled OS is it true>
