QR aren't as efficient as NFC.

For merchant to accept QR, they must add in a QR scanner.

For nfc, a normal credit card terminal POS will do.

Just got Mi8 during the launch. Already aware of POCO but didnt expect it to come so soon.

the release of Mi A2, Mi8 and POCO are too close from each other. EIN might suffer if they overbook the devices but who cares.

Since i got my Mi8, no point turning back la.

The only different between Mi8 and POCO i see are :
- AMOLED vs IPS screen (doesnt matter for me either but AMOLED much brighter la)
- 3600mAH vs 4000mAH (POCO won this part, just cannot brain why Mi8 dont put 4000mAH like RN5)
- 1899 vs 1429 (POCO cheaper)
- Dual GPS vs normal GPS (Not really sure how good is Dual GPS on Mi8)
-Steel back cover vs plastic cover. (not sure)
- No cooling system vs water cooling

Anyway, i managed to get the Amazfit BIP when purchase Mi8 la. The price was RM279.

So the phone is RM1620 + amazfit RM279 = RM1899

So my phone price and the POCO is difference by RM191 only, not so hurt la unless i don get the amazfit bip. LOL. I got AMOLED Screen and Steel back cover except the battery capacity and the water cooling. I guess steel back cover could dissipate the heat as efficient as water cooling thingy.

Anyway, my next phone would be 12GB RAM + 256GB ROM/512GB ROM in couple of years...
