At that time, their proper flagship, the Mi 8 was 1,599. The Mi 10 now is 2,799, hence Poco F2 Pro will likely cost above RM2k now.

Yeah, Poco popular in term of price / performance.

Yes it is true the upcoming Snap 768G has 5G modem "baked-in" ... But it is X52 modem and not X55 modem... so, at least the 5G modem is there for those who are interested to "try" using 5G spectrum before seriously investing on higher end 5G modem. So, spend less cash to "test-drive" the 5G performance rather than paying a lot of cash on 5G modem for no reason. Summore, there are 3 types of 5G spectrums. Dunno which one will our local telco implement later...

Me think any SRP above RM1,500 is non-Poco DNA... The F2 cosmetic and design philosophy is totally different than the F1. From notch to notch-less, from IPS to AMOLED, from plastic body to "glass-tic", from 18 watt charge to 30 watt charge, from non-NFC to NFC-ready, from non-IR blaster to IR-blaster-ready, etc. It has potential to destruct the mid-range market by bracing the previous F1 "hype/phenomenon"...

So, hopefully, Poco Team shall be releasing their secret project on the cheaper F2-series (maybe called as Poco F2 SE ?... mimics the iPhone SE) running Snap 768G with "almost" the rest of all other components the same as the F2 Pro; maybe can omit NFC and IR-blaster and built with plastic body... offering SRP of <RM1,500 for the base variant. The use of Snap 865 is a "waste" on consumer's pocket at the moment... The only thing that Snap 865 is better than the rest is the feature of "updatable" GPU drivers, which might improve the phone’s longevity... That's the super-power of Snap 865....

Perhaps Xiaomi have accidently bought a lot of Snap 865 from Qualcomm and now they need to rush to throw away these SoC before the next one is released...And then the Snap 768G is not in their inventory due to budget already eaten up by Snap 865...

Google Pixel 5 is touted to run Snap 768G...So, imagine the GCam running Snap 768G ported into Poco F2 SE ...

Yup, that makes more sense

so I'm guessing the Poco F2 will be a rebadge of K30i with SD768?

New thread for Poco X2 Pro

Stupid non-existence 5G

It’ll be impressive if they can keep it below RM1.5k. If not, they enter lose the biggest advantage that drives the sale of the Pocophone. The price.

As long as there is 3G Spectrum, forget about VoLTE

😭😭

today miui got update
jus April security patch

No detrimental effects to energy consumption. Safe to proceed.

good to know that dev havent abandon pocof1 yet
but the vast selection of custom roms does makes it a stable daily driver

hope that the next update will give miui12

wow I noticed the battery indicator hv yellow color on the new update

i think this is miui10 punya native look? or is it theme?

11.0.8? Y mine 11.0.6?
Got any difference?

As stated, it updated the security patch
it'll slowly roll to users

I got 11.0.6 rather than 11.0.8, n my previous was 11.0.4.
Weird.

I hv no idea, my previous battery indicator only 2 colors.
green 20% - 100%
red 0% - 19©

PS: I did change my theme to Forest NY,
but even b4 I change, the battery icon never hv yellow b4
