Let me sum it up for you

- "Terrible phone with a horrific UI"
I know I can’t demand too much from a phone that costs under 150 euros when I bought it, but the experience with it is absolutely horrific and ridiculous. Even though it is powered by a G99 and has 6GB of RAM, the performance still feels terrible. The connectivity is unstable, and I often miss many important notifications because of this Poco UI. The only good thing I can see is that the battery is pretty good. It can last about two days or more without recharging, but the slow charging is a downside and doesn’t seem to matter much.
Pros- Good battry
- Pretty durable when you inconsistenly dropping it
Cons- Poor screen quality
- Teribble Performance
- Lack of conectivity
- Slow charging
- There are so many bugs in the UI

View answers - It's good for social media but not really for gaming.
Ram and storage very good, camera really good in daytime but I'm gaming the phone has some annoying frame drop, for example I play Fortnite on 30 to 16 fps and 60 to 45 fps in call of duty mobile on medium graphics with filters.
