One of the most talked about (and perhaps desired) smartphones of the moment is the POCOPHONE F1, a device that has been able to give enthusiasm to technology enthusiasts who alas do not have a high budget, and who so far have only been able to admire the top of the range through a PC screen. Instead POCOPHONE F1 offers itself at a super competitive price by offering top hardware, such as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 CPU, LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 2.1 internal memory expandable via micro SD, but also goodies at a software level such as the integration of AI in the photographic sector.
The company has saved in materials, such as the back cover made of polycarbonate that someone has turned up their noses, therefore thinking about POCOPHONE F1 as to a terminal cheap.

All in all, the POCOPHONE F1 appears to be a fairly reliable little device that can withstand hard knocks. It should also be noted that JerryRigEverything is testing the standard version and not the even more robust version in kevlar. What do you think of the performance of the new top of the range by Xiaomi? Let us know in the comments below.
[...] Beyond the sympathy of this kind of video, we are very happy to see that what Xiaomi sells is not just crap. The external build quality together with the quality of the hardware components of all the devices of the Chinese brand is excellent and as proof of this there are videos like those of JerryRigEverithing that prove it. In this regard, if you are curious, we invite you to also see the others of the same youtuber on the Mi 8 Explorer Edition devices and POCOPHONE F1. [...]
