This particular mobile phone is by far the most value for money option under €400 for people who prioritize processor performance. The Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 is currently among the top 10 best mobile processors, according to benchmarks. A list where to move to the next one you have to pay twice the amount. From this perspective, it simply has no competition.

Even for users who do not engage in heavy usage and are only interested in light browsing and social media, they are also favored as everything is lightning fast and no matter how many apps you open, you won't wait more than fractions of a second for them to load. For phones in the €1000 range, these may not be remarkable, but in this category, they are not at all obvious. A powerful processor also means that the phone will remain efficient over time.

I have not encountered any bugs or software issues. Overall, MIUI has improved a lot in this regard in recent years.

As for bloatware, it's not too bad, you can delete most of them, but it has the classic Xiaomi music, video, and browser apps that are full of advertisements. If you want, you can ignore them or even better, download a debloater on your PC and the problem is solved. The process of cleaning everything on the phone is easy with a quick look at a YouTube tutorial.

The battery is good. As someone who uses their phone heavily, it still has 20% left at the end of the day. This is purely subjective and depends on each person's usage. I can imagine it lasting for 2 days with light usage. However, it charges very quickly. It reaches 100% in less than 1 hour with an empty battery.

The phone does not heat up much with heavy usage, although my point of comparison is specifically the Mi Note 10 Lite that I had before, a phone that "lit up" for me with specific games.

That's it in terms of functionality. In short, it is flawless if you prioritize all the above in a phone. I hope the device, with a battery change in the future, will last me many years.

Now let's talk about multimedia. Video/Photo/Sound.

I'm not a photography enthusiast, so I don't have a strong opinion. If I take a photo, it's to capture memories. I don't upload to social media and I'm generally not interested in technical specifications. They seem very good to me, but from what I hear, Xiaomi doesn't have the most attractive photography. If you're a photography enthusiast, you know better than me.

The speaker is satisfactorily loud. It is also stereo, which as a user of mono speakers on budget phones, I am satisfied with. I don't have technical knowledge in this area, like with photography, and I don't find any flaws in my own ear. The presence of the headphone jack is a big positive.

The video is what you would expect from a device like this. Nice AMOLED screen with very strong brightness. The 120Hz in applications make a noticeable difference, and I strongly feel it when I put the phone on battery saver mode, which resets the screen to 60Hz.

The construction is made of plastic on the back, which personally doesn't worry me as I use the case that comes with the device and I feel at ease. It also has a ready-made plastic screen protector on the display, which you can remove if you want. Personally, I prefer the touch sensation on glass and I don't obsess over micro-scratches, so I remove it. For someone who doesn't consider their phone a fashion statement, the plastic on the back is a very good choice because, apart from the cost, it doesn't heat up like glass, you don't have to worry about it breaking if you don't have a case, and overall it is lighter and more comfortable. It does scratch easily, but that doesn't matter if you see a phone for what it is, a tool. Also, while many budget plastic phones break when bent, this one has a sturdy construction and you can't break it with your hands. Not that I have tried it, but there are videos on YouTube.

The device was purchased in August 23rd and if there are any changes regarding the positives I have mentioned, I will update the review. If you are a power user, this is simply the way to go with this budget.

I had it for 1 month, I put it to charge, it got hot and the motherboard burned out. Maybe mine was defective from the factory, I don't know, but yes, I was upset and I had bought the white version with the lightning for 500 euros back then. I hope they fixed the problem; I would buy it again, not the Poco X5 or Poco X6 Pro, in my opinion. ♥️

    Like the rest of the sufferers, after exactly 2 years, with the warranty expiring, the phone started restarting by itself and reaching extreme temperatures.......the screen crashes and makes a strange sound and then restarts again......I hope it is some update and a factory reset will bring it back.... serious junk

    One month after the warranty expired, the phone started shutting down on its own. Every day from 3 to 30 times. Known issue with the motherboard, which cannot be repaired. Wasted money. Back to Samsung.

    I bought this phone based on reviews and because it charges quickly, I've had it for two years and what I have to say is that while I'm talking the screen turns grey and it makes a sound and shuts down, the last Xiaomi I bought... I'm still crying over my money.

    As another user of this particular phone mentioned, after two years of light use, mine also started doing continuous reboots on its own. Unfortunately, it is out of warranty, so it's going to be thrown away

    The biggest piece of junk I have ever bought! After 1.5 years of use, it keeps shutting down by itself, reboots, and freezes incredibly. Stay away from Poco in general.

    3 years later it is still flawless. The battery is a bit worn but it still lasts a day, unless you play heavy games. One of the best and most timeless phones, which satisfies even the most demanding users.

    This review is about colour: Black, memory: 8/256GB

    2 years after purchasing it, this phone was one of the most worthwhile purchases I have made and definitely an excellent value-for-money choice (366€ in October 2023)

    No complaints from its use, it doesn't lag, and the battery, with music, GPS, and calls, needs half an hour of charging at noon to easily last until night (without intermediate charging, after 16 hours of operation, it remains on at night and fully charges in less than 50 minutes)

    If it were released for the first time today, I would buy it again

    This review is about the colour: Black

    I chose this particular Chinese phone because it was recommended to me by the salespeople. Also, it has a headphone jack while the pro does not, 12-bit screen color, 1400 nits brightness, memory that reaches 19GB in virtual ROM. It also has brand shops, cheap accessories. Old-timer's advice: I put a Cosmote twin sim at 15 euros (2 sim cards with the same phone number) so that I can have the candybar phone (with buttons) outside and the smartphone only inside the house and at work for safety. You just use them alternately, NOT simultaneously.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    Beautiful, very good camera but also video, and very nice screen. The battery is excellent and charges very quickly. Now regarding the "power" of the phone, for starters I would strongly recommend expanding the memory by +8 GB, you will lose a large amount of storage space, however the approximately 200 GB that will remain is more than satisfactory. Personally, I play Fortnite on this phone at 60 fps. It may sound like a mediocre number, but because the screen of phones is much smaller than that of a TV or a computer monitor, it is very smooth. The only negatives I have noticed on the phone so far (1 year and something) are overheating and the fingerprint sensor, which will be useless for you because the face unlock is truly flawless and very fast. Personally, I believe it should cost at least €800 for what it offers.

    I switched from the Poco F4 to the Poco F5.

    Pros:

    lighter,
    thinner,
    5G out of the box,
    blazing fast,
    doesn't heat up during gaming

    Cons:
    slips out of the hands

    That said, excellent choice for this price point.

    Very good mobile, I have been using it for a few months and it fully satisfies me! First of all, it has a Snapdragon which I was looking for, just like my 2 previous phones, it doesn't lag, the scrolling is smooth at 120hz, it has enough RAM and storage space, the resolution is good, apps open quickly, the fingerprint sensor works instantly and overall for the €380 I paid, it's worth it. The camera is good but not professional and it has 1080 at 60 fps but also 4K at 30. As for gaming, I haven't tried it but I imagine it won't have any issues. VFM!

    Very nice mobile phone, worth its money, takes nice photos and videos but its strong point is not the camera. The brightness is average, the speaker is satisfactory, the battery lasts a full day. Charges very quickly. The best part is the processor, it is very powerful, does not heat up at all, very fast, does not lag at all. The mobile phone is a very good choice for someone who needs a reliable, fast mobile phone. Worth its money!!

    Unfortunately, it does not make coffee and burns my food when I cook. I say these to all those who search in every mobile even the hair. The F5 is very decent in everything, no need for many words. It beats down much more expensive mobiles. I highly recommend it for any use. One year now, zero problems. As for the HuperOS, when it arrives, I will not update it, at least not yet.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    I replaced my old F1 with this one, about nine months ago. Overall, I have been very satisfied with its performance. Apps run smoothly (note: I don't use it for gaming) and it has never crashed during this time. Compared to the F1, I didn't notice a significant improvement in photo quality. On the contrary, there are unacceptable flares when shooting against or even sideways to the sun. The wide-angle lens is welcome (don't expect much for night shots), while the macro lens is just garbage and was not needed in the system at all. I also think that video recording is a downgrade compared to the F1, as it seems to lose focus very easily when in motion. I don't use video much, so it doesn't bother me, but you should take it into consideration. Finally, the truth is that I had higher expectations for the battery life, which only lasts a day. As for updates, it is known that the Poco brand lags behind quite a bit.

    I have been using the phone for almost 6 months. It is fast. However, it does not have good photo quality. The photos are blurry and out of focus. To take a good photo, it must be perfectly still! Also, the battery is limited in capacity. It obviously has some issues with its operating system as the screen often turns off (while the phone is still functioning normally), resulting in frequent hard resets. It is nowhere near the quality that the POCO F1 offered! Anyone who chooses it should know that it is mediocre at best. However, it is very fast. Lastly, the speakerphone does not work well. At a minimal distance, the person on the other end cannot hear anything. Disappointing

    The third Xiaomi I acquire. I had the Poco X3 for three years, which does not present any problem, but I wanted a new device with higher screen resolution, black performance, and better camera. Excellent in everything! It has Android 13 and supports up to 14. The best mobile in this price category.

    Guys, I've had it for two weeks. I'm not kidding, it's the best value for money on the market right now for its specs! It doesn't lag at all, it runs smoothly and the processor is very powerful. Its camera is very satisfactory for someone whose main reason for buying the phone is not the photos. The only thing that lacks a bit is the sound, but if you adjust the equalizer from the settings (a two-minute task), it gets fixed immediately.

    Overall, for someone who wants to spend a maximum of 400 euros, it's the best option available in the market. I highly recommend it without reservation!!!

  • Like the rest of the sufferers, after exactly 2 years, with the warranty expiring, the phone started restarting by itself and reaching extreme temperatures.......the screen crashes and makes a strange sound and then restarts again......I hope it is some update and a factory reset will bring it back.... serious junk

  • One month after the warranty expired, the phone started shutting down on its own. Every day from 3 to 30 times. Known issue with the motherboard, which cannot be repaired. Wasted money. Back to Samsung.

  • I bought this phone based on reviews and because it charges quickly, I've had it for two years and what I have to say is that while I'm talking the screen turns grey and it makes a sound and shuts down, the last Xiaomi I bought... I'm still crying over my money.

  • The purchase was made in 2023 and even now the phone is just fine, apart from the battery which lasts less than it did back then (it still lasts a day with normal use). Satisfied with my purchase.

  • As another user of this particular phone mentioned, after two years of light use, mine also started doing continuous reboots on its own. Unfortunately, it is out of warranty, so it's going to be thrown away

This particular mobile phone is by far the most value for money option under €400 for people who prioritize processor performance. The Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 is currently among the top 10 best mobile processors, according to benchmarks. A list where to move to the next one you have to pay twice the amount. From this perspective, it simply has no competition.

Even for users who do not engage in heavy usage and are only interested in light browsing and social media, they are also favored as everything is lightning fast and no matter how many apps you open, you won't wait more than fractions of a second for them to load. For phones in the €1000 range, these may not be remarkable, but in this category, they are not at all obvious. A powerful processor also means that the phone will remain efficient over time.

I have not encountered any bugs or software issues. Overall, MIUI has improved a lot in this regard in recent years.

As for bloatware, it's not too bad, you can delete most of them, but it has the classic Xiaomi music, video, and browser apps that are full of advertisements. If you want, you can ignore them or even better, download a debloater on your PC and the problem is solved. The process of cleaning everything on the phone is easy with a quick look at a YouTube tutorial.

The battery is good. As someone who uses their phone heavily, it still has 20% left at the end of the day. This is purely subjective and depends on each person's usage. I can imagine it lasting for 2 days with light usage. However, it charges very quickly. It reaches 100% in less than 1 hour with an empty battery.

The phone does not heat up much with heavy usage, although my point of comparison is specifically the Mi Note 10 Lite that I had before, a phone that "lit up" for me with specific games.

That's it in terms of functionality. In short, it is flawless if you prioritize all the above in a phone. I hope the device, with a battery change in the future, will last me many years.

Now let's talk about multimedia. Video/Photo/Sound.

I'm not a photography enthusiast, so I don't have a strong opinion. If I take a photo, it's to capture memories. I don't upload to social media and I'm generally not interested in technical specifications. They seem very good to me, but from what I hear, Xiaomi doesn't have the most attractive photography. If you're a photography enthusiast, you know better than me.

The speaker is satisfactorily loud. It is also stereo, which as a user of mono speakers on budget phones, I am satisfied with. I don't have technical knowledge in this area, like with photography, and I don't find any flaws in my own ear. The presence of the headphone jack is a big positive.

The video is what you would expect from a device like this. Nice AMOLED screen with very strong brightness. The 120Hz in applications make a noticeable difference, and I strongly feel it when I put the phone on battery saver mode, which resets the screen to 60Hz.

The construction is made of plastic on the back, which personally doesn't worry me as I use the case that comes with the device and I feel at ease. It also has a ready-made plastic screen protector on the display, which you can remove if you want. Personally, I prefer the touch sensation on glass and I don't obsess over micro-scratches, so I remove it. For someone who doesn't consider their phone a fashion statement, the plastic on the back is a very good choice because, apart from the cost, it doesn't heat up like glass, you don't have to worry about it breaking if you don't have a case, and overall it is lighter and more comfortable. It does scratch easily, but that doesn't matter if you see a phone for what it is, a tool. Also, while many budget plastic phones break when bent, this one has a sturdy construction and you can't break it with your hands. Not that I have tried it, but there are videos on YouTube.

The device was purchased in August 23rd and if there are any changes regarding the positives I have mentioned, I will update the review. If you are a power user, this is simply the way to go with this budget.

I had it for 1 month, I put it to charge, it got hot and the motherboard burned out. Maybe mine was defective from the factory, I don't know, but yes, I was upset and I had bought the white version with the lightning for 500 euros back then. I hope they fixed the problem; I would buy it again, not the Poco X5 or Poco X6 Pro, in my opinion. ♥️

    This review is about colour: Black, memory: 8/256GB

    2 years after purchasing it, this phone was one of the most worthwhile purchases I have made and definitely an excellent value-for-money choice (366€ in October 2023)

    No complaints from its use, it doesn't lag, and the battery, with music, GPS, and calls, needs half an hour of charging at noon to easily last until night (without intermediate charging, after 16 hours of operation, it remains on at night and fully charges in less than 50 minutes)

    If it were released for the first time today, I would buy it again

    This review is about the colour: Black

    I chose this particular Chinese phone because it was recommended to me by the salespeople. Also, it has a headphone jack while the pro does not, 12-bit screen color, 1400 nits brightness, memory that reaches 19GB in virtual ROM. It also has brand shops, cheap accessories. Old-timer's advice: I put a Cosmote twin sim at 15 euros (2 sim cards with the same phone number) so that I can have the candybar phone (with buttons) outside and the smartphone only inside the house and at work for safety. You just use them alternately, NOT simultaneously.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    Beautiful, very good camera but also video, and very nice screen. The battery is excellent and charges very quickly. Now regarding the "power" of the phone, for starters I would strongly recommend expanding the memory by +8 GB, you will lose a large amount of storage space, however the approximately 200 GB that will remain is more than satisfactory. Personally, I play Fortnite on this phone at 60 fps. It may sound like a mediocre number, but because the screen of phones is much smaller than that of a TV or a computer monitor, it is very smooth. The only negatives I have noticed on the phone so far (1 year and something) are overheating and the fingerprint sensor, which will be useless for you because the face unlock is truly flawless and very fast. Personally, I believe it should cost at least €800 for what it offers.

    I switched from the Poco F4 to the Poco F5.

    Pros:

    lighter,
    thinner,
    5G out of the box,
    blazing fast,
    doesn't heat up during gaming

    Cons:
    slips out of the hands

    That said, excellent choice for this price point.

    Very good mobile, I have been using it for a few months and it fully satisfies me! First of all, it has a Snapdragon which I was looking for, just like my 2 previous phones, it doesn't lag, the scrolling is smooth at 120hz, it has enough RAM and storage space, the resolution is good, apps open quickly, the fingerprint sensor works instantly and overall for the €380 I paid, it's worth it. The camera is good but not professional and it has 1080 at 60 fps but also 4K at 30. As for gaming, I haven't tried it but I imagine it won't have any issues. VFM!

    Very nice mobile phone, worth its money, takes nice photos and videos but its strong point is not the camera. The brightness is average, the speaker is satisfactory, the battery lasts a full day. Charges very quickly. The best part is the processor, it is very powerful, does not heat up at all, very fast, does not lag at all. The mobile phone is a very good choice for someone who needs a reliable, fast mobile phone. Worth its money!!

    Unfortunately, it does not make coffee and burns my food when I cook. I say these to all those who search in every mobile even the hair. The F5 is very decent in everything, no need for many words. It beats down much more expensive mobiles. I highly recommend it for any use. One year now, zero problems. As for the HuperOS, when it arrives, I will not update it, at least not yet.

    This review is about the colour: Black

    I replaced my old F1 with this one, about nine months ago. Overall, I have been very satisfied with its performance. Apps run smoothly (note: I don't use it for gaming) and it has never crashed during this time. Compared to the F1, I didn't notice a significant improvement in photo quality. On the contrary, there are unacceptable flares when shooting against or even sideways to the sun. The wide-angle lens is welcome (don't expect much for night shots), while the macro lens is just garbage and was not needed in the system at all. I also think that video recording is a downgrade compared to the F1, as it seems to lose focus very easily when in motion. I don't use video much, so it doesn't bother me, but you should take it into consideration. Finally, the truth is that I had higher expectations for the battery life, which only lasts a day. As for updates, it is known that the Poco brand lags behind quite a bit.

    I have been using the phone for almost 6 months. It is fast. However, it does not have good photo quality. The photos are blurry and out of focus. To take a good photo, it must be perfectly still! Also, the battery is limited in capacity. It obviously has some issues with its operating system as the screen often turns off (while the phone is still functioning normally), resulting in frequent hard resets. It is nowhere near the quality that the POCO F1 offered! Anyone who chooses it should know that it is mediocre at best. However, it is very fast. Lastly, the speakerphone does not work well. At a minimal distance, the person on the other end cannot hear anything. Disappointing

    The third Xiaomi I acquire. I had the Poco X3 for three years, which does not present any problem, but I wanted a new device with higher screen resolution, black performance, and better camera. Excellent in everything! It has Android 13 and supports up to 14. The best mobile in this price category.

    Guys, I've had it for two weeks. I'm not kidding, it's the best value for money on the market right now for its specs! It doesn't lag at all, it runs smoothly and the processor is very powerful. Its camera is very satisfactory for someone whose main reason for buying the phone is not the photos. The only thing that lacks a bit is the sound, but if you adjust the equalizer from the settings (a two-minute task), it gets fixed immediately.

    Overall, for someone who wants to spend a maximum of 400 euros, it's the best option available in the market. I highly recommend it without reservation!!!

  • Like the rest of the sufferers, after exactly 2 years, with the warranty expiring, the phone started restarting by itself and reaching extreme temperatures.......the screen crashes and makes a strange sound and then restarts again......I hope it is some update and a factory reset will bring it back.... serious junk

  • One month after the warranty expired, the phone started shutting down on its own. Every day from 3 to 30 times. Known issue with the motherboard, which cannot be repaired. Wasted money. Back to Samsung.

  • I bought this phone based on reviews and because it charges quickly, I've had it for two years and what I have to say is that while I'm talking the screen turns grey and it makes a sound and shuts down, the last Xiaomi I bought... I'm still crying over my money.

  • The purchase was made in 2023 and even now the phone is just fine, apart from the battery which lasts less than it did back then (it still lasts a day with normal use). Satisfied with my purchase.

  • As another user of this particular phone mentioned, after two years of light use, mine also started doing continuous reboots on its own. Unfortunately, it is out of warranty, so it's going to be thrown away
