Technical sheet of POCO F1

Description

This time Xiaomi has established a new line to follow between high-end terminals. On this occasion he has chosen to do so with a new sub-brand: "POCO", and his first terminal, the PocoPhone F1. As they say they have baptized it with the name of "Pocophone" because they have tried to create a mobile "top" but removing some elements that make the product more expensive. For this they have focused on plastic materials eliminating the use of metal or glass, have suppressed some functions such as NFC, wireless charging, zooming in the camera, but have kept the rest of the features (those considered important) in the most high of the market bar. All this will allow tis PocoPhone to compete with the high-end terminals of the moment: Samsung Galaxy S9, Xiaomi mi 8, Oneplus 6 ...

To achieve this , they have used the most powerful processor of the moment: the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, accompanied by RAM type LPDDR4X and for fans of the latest generation games have incorporated a liquid cooling with LiquidCool technology.

Its screen of 6.18 "FHD + does not leave anyone indifferent, and despite not to use an amoled panel. They make use of a notch where some of the main sensors of the mobile are incorporated.

Its double rear camera of 12Mp + 5Mp accompanied by artificial intelligence delights anyone. Xiaomi has opted for two of the best sensors in the market, achieving optimal results in almost any light condition. On the other hand its front camera 20Mp can make this phone the ideal to capture your best selfies.

Some negative details: Lack of NFC, wireless charging as well as absence of any type of IP protection.

And finally, Xiaomi has developed a new specific software for this terminal that has been called MIUI for POCO, this specific development manages to elevate the feeling of fluidity of the interface to unsuspected levels until now, beating (in an impressive way) to rivals the likes of the Oneplus 6 or the Samsung Galaxy S9. With this Xiaomi has wanted to endow this terminal with something that until now we could only see in the best terminals of Apple.

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
