  Decent device for a small price

  Having this phone for a 4-5 months now. It Is good enough for average user. It's very cheap and brings powerful battery. I have bluetooth armband, so my bluetooth is on 24/7 and with average usage this phone lasts me for two days. It doesn't feel strong when holding it in your arm, but for this price, i don't expect anything else. Biggest downside for me is low amount of rams (3 GB is not enough for my intense usage), also, ,after having it for 4-5 months i did notice random lagg, apps closing itself, but again, it's all due to RAM and my big needs of compact phone, should have taken 4GB RAM model).

  Pros

  • Very strong battery
  • Good GPS and network reception

  Cons

  • Pretty low camera
  • Feels laggier after ~4months of usage
  • Plastic (really really think about getting case)

  • 3.7
  • Screen5.0
  • Performance3.3
  • Camera5.5
  • Connectivity10
  • Battery9.0

  The best for small price

  Wonderful budget phone with insane specs. But, with good specs and low price, there's also drawbacks: it's all made from plastic, it has 0 water resistance. And by 0, i really mean 0. Don't even think of leaving it in a shower room when you're having a shower. Mine pocophone almost died after running in cold (+10 C) weather for ~20 minutes. I did need 3 days of drying just to make it work again.
  I also don't like MIUI due to their battery management and notification protection- you can't see notifications on locksreen, they don't blink LED until you go to every single app and give them permissions for it. Also, you can't see notifications due to very big notch. But this all can be fixed with custom ROM. When porting Gcam to pocophone, it makes some wonderful photos.
  In conclusion: very good phone if you prefer performance over quality and durability.

  Pros

  • Powerful battery that will last about two days
  • Insane specs for this price range
  • Looks good
  • Very decent camera with gcam
  • Has custom ROMs
  • Huge internal storage

  Cons

  • MIUI ROM (read comment)
  • Huge Notch
  • Super vulnerable to water

  • 7.1
  • Screen7.5
  • Performance9.3
  • Camera9.0
  • Connectivity10
  • Battery10
