Pixel seems to lag while scrolling in apps, while the Poco doesn't. If someone wants smooth performance and no lag, take the Poco. If you want great camera and great US carrier support take the Pixel.

I really liked the new Poco F5 the designer the price and the performance 😊👍👍👍

Most viewers watching this video are interested in performance, and the Poco F5 currently kills the Pixel. The poor RAM management of the Pixel and the stuttering and lag opening and moving between apps are evident, so the Poco is a much more premium flagship experience. An easy win for Poco if performance is what drives you? Other factors could lead you towards the Pixel, but I would say if you are only keeping your phone for 3 years, then the Poco is cheaper, faster, with superior RAM management and a no-brainer.

The problem is software support, and cameras. To make it up for these problems on Poco F3 I had to mod it, unaware that I would not be able to go back to stock because you immediately loose Play Store certification. Add to it the frequent Widevine license drop and you get a cocktail of uncertified experience that is fast but in a DRM nightmare.

Pixel 6a much cheaper than F5

Here in India Poco F5 is priced at par with pixel 6a and 150 $ cheaper than the pixel 7A and still gets a fast adapter in the box and double the memory. The pixel phones have an advantage of software, compact size and great cameras. Poco on the other hand has the advantage of a great screen a great processor and in the box power adaptor, headphone jack, double the memory. The poco/miui software has more customization options and tricks but it is a bit buggy compared to the clean pixel experience.

Can you make a video between the Poco f5 ,Poco f5 pro , and Samsung galaxy s21 ultra as they are all pretty close in money and I rly I'm between one of these

This was a comparison I was definitely looking forward to so thank you. The Poco F5 would be a great upgrade from my Poco F3 no doubt. I'd actually lean more towards the Pixel 7a simply for that blue color and because Poco has been having a lot of quality control issues.

you can't buy a Pixel phone in Leyte Philippines but you can buy a Poco, Redmi, Mi, Xiaomi anyplace in the Philippines. I tried buying a Pixel 7 pro last year and was told to travel 1100kms or about 700 miles to Manila by bus which is a 33 hour non-stop journey. Google need to get their phones in more nations and stores or the Chinese will continue to beat them in sales. The Poco F5 costs about $360 here.

G2 is actually a bit slower than the Snapdragon 888 And Snapdragon 7+gen 2 is faster than 8 gen 1 (not 8+ gen 1).

People love hating on miui, I have tested every shade of android skin, and miui is not bad at all, is it the best? No i dont think so, but its not bad at all. "but but has blotware" yeah takes life 5 seconds to uninstall. Never have I had an issue with miui, and been using xiaomi for 4 years by now. Its smooth doesnt have any crashes or rarely so, it just works. Its just another skin nothing more nothing less. But but sofware support, u can daily drive a phone with 1 year or 2 or even 3 years old android system with no problem. Pretty much every app will work, I ll take the better proccesor any day over the pixel cause I know will age much much better. Slap a Gcam in there and u got a great all rounder of a phone.

I think poco would likely launch in the US in the coming years as they slowly use more stock google apps than miui apps like calendars, messaging, dialer etc. xiaomi also said poco is now an independent brand so if US wants to pull a "huawei" on it and ban it, Xiaomi will not be affected directly.

Poco F5 with a custom rom like EvoX far surpasses Pixel 7A in every aspect other than design and camera.

Poco phones have an expiration date of 2 years and start to show bugs and problems, personal experience. I'll go back to the Pixel, I have a spare Pixel 2xl and it still works today, although my poco F3 had problems less than 3 years ago, I'll go back to the Pixel, in the end what's cheap is expensive!

I see that the Poco actually has game boosters built in which allows it to basically boost immediately.

*5:24** now this is pure performance..* but when we are talking about general day to day usage, you wouldn't really notice it as much.

This reviewer guy looked a bit biased towards pixel Poco was far way faster than pixel But he looked like that it was hurting him to give xiaomi the credit for giving a better performance phone in cheaper price than pixel

Twitter didn't reload on pixel 7a

The Pixel 7a is more of a personal choice for me it is because: 1) It has got a clean UI with no third party apps. 2) It is especially optimised with the tensor G2 for lag free buttery smooth experience. 3) Great cameras.. 4) The tensor G2 may not be the fastest processor but remember it has AI and machine learning capabilities which makes it the smartest chip in the planet allowing you to use some cool features like Google translate and photo unblur etc etc..
