I'm planning to get a Poco to replace my old Redmi Note 5 Pro. But can't decide which model to get. I have a budget of around 2K but need to save as much money as possible.

I basically need a phone that plays games like Genshin/emulators and a decent camera for content creation. I'm eyeing the Poco F6 Pro 1TB, but I heard the Redmi Turbo 4 is going to be rebranded as F7 soon.
The X7 Pro 512GB seems to have a good price tag, but not sure if worth the money.

Need help deciding which Poco phone has the best value, or help me recommend other phones besides Poco.

2k can get a decent Honor or Vivo

Poco is good and value for money when it comes to phones below 1k

Poco under 1k can throw into rubbish bin .

U want decent phone under 1k go iqoo Z series 900-1.1k very decent spec can let Poco sweat .

2k budget you can expand your selection other than Poco here.
Maybe could get iPhone 14 during promo at this price also.

exactly, but luckily his budget is 2k.

if really 1k i'd rather get Oukitel or any Xiaomi Redmi.

by the way, wondering very less people recommending Nothing phone?

Nothing ya very obvious , nothing special want compare spec they lose to most of the brand at sub 1-1.5k . Nothing price similar with Samsung , got way better option out there.

2k can get Oppo Find X8 China ROM set dy 256gb only though,🚦ready stock delivery within a week from Shopee

Any suggestions below RM 400?

Oppo a3x
45w charge snapdragon

Is this original Oppo? I will check. Thank you

Wait for the F7 series?

what is ColorOS 14.0 from Oppo A3X?
It is not Android?

Android 14

Quite refreshing compare to hyperos.

I think Oppo A3X is a value buy.
I do not spend more money to phone because the OS changes so fast.

Thank you again

Ok..I will follow you to buy this Oppo phone.

No need to buy so expensive phone technology and OS change very fast.

Thank you Sir

Hi, you bought RM317 for this spec: 4GB RAM + 128GB?

How is the camera picture quality? Thanks

yes 4+128
rm327 cashback rm10

pic is acceptable. better than most rm400 phones.
just cant get over the fact that second camera is totally fake.

Best deal of the year Thank you

What are the "way better option out there"? The Redmi Notes/Realmes don't have esim for sub RM1.8-2k compared to A54/55, Nothing 3a pro.

The phone u mention all maciam crap spec if u compare to this new launch model

This Tuesday don't miss Poco f7 launch on Shopee

mcm no ohmm...
unless RM888 for Poco F7 on this Tues

Actually at expected 1.5k poco f7 is feel like ifone pro maks on budget will be very worth unless you nickpicking la

Something to note:
1. 6500 battery (hope not 100% follow eu not have charger)
2. No true Aod (same like x7 pro, x6 pro, f5 etc)
3. Infrared remote blaster moved to flashlight location

I am estimating That Poco F7 gonna be RM1199, with voucher could reach RM1099
Bonus Price at RM999

Budget 2k better go for F7 (next month launch?) or F7 Pro

I dun think will be this low....
Maybe early bird 1.2k - 1.3k, with voucher 1.1k - 1.2k, base version will bumped up to 12 256

Myabe...maybe...
I am keen on anything with 512 H/D with 12GB RAM is great now

Early bird or wait a few months better?

Maybe few months later. Didn't realise F7 Malaysia priced is hiked a bit over 1.5k "early bird" before voucher

So we don't get as much a good deal now. maybe I'll see later after a few months. Not in a rush anyway.
