Reviewing Xiaomi's Poco F6 Pro, an upper mid-range smartphone taking on the Pixel 8a with its Light Fusion camera tech, almost-flagship gaming performance and premium display. The Poco F6 Pro will be hitting the UK soon, from 499 GBP same as Google's handset. I've been using it as my phone for about a week now so here's my verdict!
Yes, in some ways the Xiaomi Poco F6 Pro is as good or better than the Pixel 8a and many other mid-range phones. That 1440p screen is beautifully sharp, with Dolby Vision and HDR10 support. Gamers will enjoy blazing through Genshin Impact and other quality titles, with Xiaomi's HyperOS gaming mode to help out.
And the Poco F6 Pro's camera setup is also good, as long as you don't mind boosted photos with richer tones. You don't get a telephoto lens, but that quibble aside, you'll capture good looking pics and up to 8K video.

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?

@SIPEROTH 22 дня назад

I don't care. Xiaomi lost me when they started taking away all the features like Apple and Samsung. They now eve took away our ability to switch off the screen while hearing a RU-vid video or downloading game files etc. I'll rather get the Sony phone that still gives me an SD card and a headphone jack and has no annoying screen hole.

@energyman7998 22 дня назад

@@SIPEROTH The SD card is a dying specie in the smartphone market, since the internal storage is much faster. Better get used to it. The headphone jack is a meme at this point, since it is not mandatory and wireless headphones are more comfortable. Soon all phones will remove it... Move on with the times.
