The problems of the Poco F6 Pro, the existence of smartphones like the OnePlus 11, the S23 Plus which are quite regularly found around $500-$600 in 2nd hand or refurbished on Amazon, the existence of the iQoo 12 in some markets, but especially the existence of the Poco F6.
don't understand why they didn't put a snapadragon 8 gen 3 in the f6 pro considering the chinese equivalent which is the redmi k70 pro has an 8 gen 3. what a bunch of fools
I've had the phone for about a month now and haven't had any problems, but..... the battery isn't great. It never lasts a full day, I never use it for gaming so I'm surprised it'd flagging towards the end of the day.
A software optimisation should fix it on the run but I think this is pretty common for phones who have a very powerful chipset. It's similar to having a gaming laptop that it never lasts for a day on casual usage.
It's a Qualcomm-equipped flagship/semi-flagship Xiaomi, though. You'll have custom ROMs to play around with for years. As an enthusiast phone, it's got a long and fruitful life ahead of it.
@@Admiral_Bongo thanks. I’ve got an lg v60 which OSS great for audio with its ess sabre quad dac and sd card slot, and removable second screen. It just doesn’t have any security updates. I’d keep this in preference to the Asus. It’s only the potential for years of security updates that would tempt me. Do you know what dac the ASUS uses?
@@AndrewCZcamshandle Can't say I do. Have been a Xiaomi fan for years, cause of the specs making them perfect for enthusiasts (lotta RAM, good CPUs, quality batteries, etc.). Most Xiaomi phones have Snapdragon Audio DAC or their in-house developed stuff. That said, I don't think phone DAC is that important nowadays. I mean, a combination of a custom ROM and a 3rd party player like Foobar 2000 will do 24/192 audio without an issue. Every sound card since the late 00s has been able to. There's a lot of snake oil in the DACs and that's coming from a sound engineer. Most records are mastered at 44.1k or 48k anyhow. So you wouldn't lose much with a cheap DAC, other than plain volume (thus the ability to handle high Ohm wired headphones). Either way, all I can say is that Asus makes good stuff (except they often have small batteries). You could also give Motorola a shot. Really shouldn't worry that much about security updates if you know your way around custom software. LineageOS and Paranoid Android have their own security stuff. And many other ROMs (CrDroid, Derpfest) are based on Lineage to begin with.
The problem with POCO devices - Longevity Flagship specs at an affordable price, Yes But Lucky Enough if that device last 24 months Short of saying - DISPOSABLE I opted for the Samsung Galaxy A55 Another great review, keep them coming
Hey man before you say anything ask those who have them. Well I have poco f1, f2 pro, f3, f4 gt, f5 and everything is going great. Imagine f1 is currently running crdroid android 14 custom rom... What 2 years are you talking about????You are free to buy the A55 with 25w charging when the 2020 Poco f2 pro 4 years old model charges with 30w😂😂
I still have the POCO F3 and it still works so well, 3 years after buying it. Not sure why you're questioning the longevity. Unfortunately I have had 3 Samsung phones and each slow down too much to use over the first 18 months. I am definitely a Xiaomi fan :)

saw the comparison F6 Pro wins more especially the cameras over OnePlus 11
video needs CCs for when watching in crowded place where earbuds or earphones are not available
Thank you for covering this phone.

@@Regulus-kg3qmyeah exactly
hows the camera?
Same with my regular f6 as a casual gamer the battery drains fast, but the performace is top notch.
@@JamesJones-zf5gn Not bad, it's does the job, but nothing special.
Has it got a headphone port?
Hyia - sadly not, no 3.5mm port on this one.
@@trustedreviews Hey 😊 Thank you. Most phones don't have them now but I am a big fan of Xiaomi 😎
Can we use type c earbuds?@@trustedreviews
Where I can find the wallpaper?
i am confused over the F6 and X6 models. which would be better ?
F6 100% is good
F models are better and more expensive but still cheap compared to similarly performing devices from other brands
How many years of OS and security updates? Track record of updates?
Not amazing - 3 major upgrades, 4 years of patches. I don't think they're typically the fastest at rolling those out either.
Thanks for the info. It’s really handy having this in reviews.

Yeah, there's definitely a sense of them not being as sturdy/durable as the likes of Samsung/Pixel. Thanks so much for watching. 😊

Are you happy with the A55?
Over priced
Still the fastest phone below 30k PHP in IMO
490 over priced how
@@smmshoechinese variant is only 290$, you're paying almost double the price for the same specs, just a different ROM
Always flop 😂 china 🇨🇳 copy paste phone 😅
If their phones are flops, how come india is the biggest market for Chinese phones?
India black
Lol
Take a mirror and look at it to see how bad you look first
flop for whom? value for money for sure
