Finally, a good phone with some colour!
Excellent phone. Ace battery life, easy 1.5 days for my use (Twitter, YouTube + Music). The 512GB storage is extremely welcome. I actually prefer this over an SD card slot, as having it only on internal storage helps with app compatibility for playing large video files. Charging is very quick indeed with the included charger.Screen is really good, the high refresh rate is welcome but it's the colour profiles that do it for me. I like a cooler white for my displays and this lets you go as warm or as cool as you like, or tailor for your content needs like DCI-P3. The only niggle is the night mode - the minimum brightness isn't low enough for me, and there is a bug with the reading mode timer. It does not automatically make the display reduce blue colours at night, I find I have to manually switch. An annoyance but not a dealbreaker.Performance is excellent, MediaTek is back in the game with this chip. Handles the games I want (Old School Runescape and Pokemon go) with ease. It would be better if Pokemon ran at 120hz but I assume this is an issue with the game not the phone, it has the horsepower for it. App switching is brilliant, seems to keep apps in memory for ages. Fast loading of everything I use. The phone never feels hot. As with anything though, your mileage may vary.Camera is passable. The night mode is pretty good but you have to be patient with it while it takes the exposure. Macro is useless, I can't figure out how to activate it. Wide angle is good enough in daylight but forget it for regular room lighting. I would prefer to remove the macro and wide angle cameras and have a decent 4x telephoto. Don't be fooled by the design, in practice this phone has 3 cameras not 4 as the cooker hob shape would imply.I found the corners on the back of the phone were picking up the colour of my black jeans (the pocket inside is black too) but some pleather cleaner I use on the car upholstery works perfect on this. The material is lasting pretty good so far, no wear or tear I can see after I would guess 500 pocket insertions. Black plastic rails are absolutely fine with me.Comes with an included in plastic screen protector, which is welcome but I easily scratched it with my thumb nail. Looks like there are replacements online but I haven't bought one yet.The software gets out of your way and lets you do what you need. There's not much bloatware, a few of the Xiaomi apps have ads in them (the Security app for example always opens with an ad for me) but you don't need them to operate the phone. I have not had a security update since I've owned the phone, which is a little worrying. I doubt this will get the next version of Android. Don't expect any fancy AI features here like you see advertised with the Samsung flagships.Overall - just what I wanted. Price point excellent. Storage is fast and 512GB should now be the industry standard. Performance is excellent. Included charger is a bonus, double bonus it's so fast. Just don't expect software to get better.

Bought this as I had broke my other phone, very impressed with the quality. Very user friendly interface,battery life: much better than I expected it last all day and charges rapidly with it's 65w charger. Cameras: great front and rear camera great for video calls and pictures. The only negative I can pick out are the pre installed apps, not just your usual mix but games, took me a little time to uninstall the bits that should have been optional. Under display fingerprint scanner works perfectly, face recognition very responsive. Sound quality is good and with a little more volume than most phones.Update, now had the phone a little shy of a year! It hasn't missed a beat still holds charge all day despite usage. Doesn't seem to have slowed or deteriorated at all.In summary super value for money highly recommend

The best value phone for your money
For those who don't know Pocophone is subbrand of Xiaomi, which is the third manufacturer of mobile phones in the world.This phone has excellent screen, connectivity and battery life, also this phone has a flagship processor and memory so if you are looking for a phone to last you 3-5 years or to play games that would be the best choice. The other positive is it's software - very fast and intuitive (inspired by iOS).The camera is good but not flagship so if you need the best camera get yourself iPhone or Samsung S24, also no 3.5mm mini jack and its water-resistant only to rain so if you want to swim with your phone look somewhere else. Overall for the money you pay I would say it is the best value on the market now. I would advice to get a yellow or grey version with 12Gb Ram (as the black version collects dust and fingerprints like a magnet).

Very good with 2 flaws for me
I think this phone is great.๐I would give 5 star if...The good: ๐ฑThe box included everything you need. Phone (with pre installed screen protector), case and charger.Performance is AMAZING, it's really quick for the price. It will do anything you chuck at it (Games and Apps)Storage 512gb in more than enough for any user and unheard of in this price range.Battery ๐Battery life seems solid with a whole day of heavy usage.The charging speeds are amazing with the 67w charger which is included.I chose the yellow phone which I am really pleased with (Vegan Leather) grey and black are really smeary plastic apparently.The not so good:The camera is average, it's fine in good lighting but not so good in low lighting. (Not Pixel 7a quality)However the video quality seems good enough.Android auto ๐.... While this works fine on newer car systems (Wirelessly), when in an older car (via usb c) the screen will not work. The music will play but the navigation and everything is just a black screen and unusable.This can probably be fixed in an update ๐คThis for me is currently a 4/5 star phone however these 2 fixes could make it 5 if they update the android auto and use better photo software.Overall very happy with this phone.If you want a budget powerhouse phone then look no further however if you want a phone with good pictures then probably best to look elsewhere ๐
