POCO F6

Technical specifications

The POCO F6 gets very hot, the service center found no defect, the device is supposedly functional, but at times it heats up to even 80 degrees. I do not recommend it.

A phone for those who do not understand the optimization of Chinese advertising and spy software... Does it operate very fast and efficiently with or without it? But seriously, it is excellent equipment with a barely acceptable camera and a great screen. It is worth it for the performance smoothness, which is rare in this class. It does not heat up for me at all, but then again, I do not play games. I recommend it.

Fast ? daily tasks are not a challenge for it at all. Many background apps, gaming, split screen, photo editing ? everything works nicely and smoothly, there is no lagging. I have Nova Launcher installed, so the additional overlay also consumes some resources.

Camera ? average, photos are not its strongest point, it takes decent ones, mostly for a personal collection or just for practical use ? I take many photos that I later need for various things, not just to take a shot and forget about it.

Construction ? durable, solid, pleasant shape, I keep it in a protective case + matte film + lens covers. Unfortunately, the island is a failure because the phone cannot lie flat, so typing this way causes annoying wobbling. It is certainly durable; it has fallen many times and works perfectly.

Charging, even 13?14 A, then gradually decreases ? I have been using a limit to 80% from the very beginning, and once in a while I do a full charge to 100%. I use chargers that do not provide full power ? precisely to save the battery cell, and so what? Well, here the problem appears. I have a dramatic quality battery in my model. I have been using it for a year and a half and I already have 85% according to Accubattery ? installed from the very beginning after configuring the phone. You can feel that from month to month you need to recharge it more and more often.

The phone is not used in very stressful tasks requiring 100% of the processor, and yet if it lasts 1 day, it is a miracle, while it lies unused for 3/4 of the time. All additional features are turned off, reduced to 60 Hz, and yet the battery depletes rapidly.

In this respect, this phone is a total failure. I even did a heavy debloat, removing unnecessary things that run in the background, but it did not help in any way. For me, this is a total disqualification of this model from the market.

Switching from POCO F3. Basically, the impressions are similar to when I bought that one: extremely smooth operation of the system and applications, a very pleasant-to-the-eye display with a 120 Hz refresh rate, a suitable 12/512 memory version. I do not play a great deal, but I tested it specifically - I did not encounter any performance issues; with the most demanding titles, the back of the device warmed up slightly. Photos are satisfactory / very good for this class, especially in good lighting. Fast and accurate in-screen reader. For me, the best price-quality ratio.

In my opinion, the phone is excellent, a transition from the POCO X3 NFC. Super fast charging, good photos (I am not particularly demanding). It has a decent processor, great for games. I bought it for the game Monster Hunter Now. On my old phone, there were significant performance delays. The battery is durable; I have the 12 GB RAM, 512 GB ROM version. I bought the green version a few days after the release for 2099. I have been using it for a few months and have not encountered any problems. I sincerely recommend it to anyone looking for a phone with good components.

I purchased it in September and compared it with the POCO F3, which I also own, and my first impressions are as follows: the POCO F3 has a brighter display and better GPS regarding speed of operation. There is no fundamental difference in speed; however, the F6 sends and receives data faster and reaches readiness more quickly after startup. It also has a slightly better camera. Now for its biggest flaw... a poor GPS because it takes a long time to find satellites and frequently loses the signal compared to the F3.

In my opinion, the phone is excellent, much better than its predecessor, the f5, which I have used for the last year. The camera takes fantastic photos; you only need to download gcam (Google lens) and not use the original one, because that software requires optimization. The battery is excellent, charging is very fast, and the smoothness of operation is perfect.

It seems good, everything is fine, but there are slight stutters when exiting various applications. I noticed that under load, meaning demanding games like Genshin Impact, the phone gets quite hot and this is noticeable even through the silicone case. We will see how it performs in the future. The camera takes decent photos.
