Another innacurate test by gsm arena. It's by about 2% more efficient than poco f3 when new, rather than 10% less efficient. I can state this for a fact.
If Xiaomi don't bring back SD card support, I'll switch brands. They can't become the iPhones we've been running from with bad software and less camera quality. They really need to reduce the amount of phones they release in a year like half then focused on better software experience and improve camera quality (how hard can that be with all the good camera hardware), it's really sad because I was rooting for them. My Redmi note 9S had gorilla glass 5 on the back.
watching from my F3, i appreciate how poco doesn't just slap latest tech every year and increase the price. instead they do their "major" upgrades on odd generations (F1 and F3), but just simple updates on even generations (F2pro and F4) for people who missed the phone last year, or upgrading from an older phones. coincidence or deliberate, it doesn't force us to buy a new phone every year. well, at least so far... i guess we F3 owners can confidently use this phone at least for another year. and congrats for people who're getting the F4. hopefully we'll see more groundbreaking stuff from the F5 next year.
The only difference between POCO F3 and POCO F4 is slightly better camera, OIS (sadly not well-implemented yet either as can be seen in this review) and slightly faster charging speed (same capacity battery but the F3 scored reasonably higher in the GSMArena battery endurance test). Everything else is literally the same as F3, definitely not worth an upgrade over it. Great for someone upgrading from an old phone but sadly not worth the upgrade for owners of POCO F3.

Not really, the redmi k50 (china) was supposed to be the new poco f4 (just like the k40 was the poco f3) but they decided to rebrand the k40s as the poco f4 and increased the price.The actual successor should've been the k50 (it is the successor in china given the similar price as the k40) and it has a dimensity 8100 and a 1440p screen.

I went with s20 FE to upgrade but was considering this for the same price. Camera software is better on the Galaxy and UI in general plus the amoled is better too on the samsung. Software might be only a year or 2 left in support but I'm okay with that.
I am using a POCO F3 for the past few months and fully satisfied with the device and I am sure the POCO F4 is even better with a better camera sensor, OIS and slightly faster charging. But S20 FE is still a great flagship grade device. There is no way my POCO F3 or even F4 can match the photo/video quality of the S20 FE and supposedly Samsung's UI/OS is also usually considered better (subjective). SoC wise, SD865 to SD870 is hardly a big difference. If you get a good price for the S20 FE and you know the phone/battery wasn't abused much, I think S20 FE is a good alternate to POCO F4. Which will probably provide a more flagship experience (camera wise at least).
@@user-em2hg6cu5u Agree! Fortunately, I was able to get it brand new. Im liking the One UI so far after using MIUI for the past 5 years. Photos on both F3/F4 and S20 FE should be on par with each other but the video recording is where I find the Samsung to be pulling ahead. I hope xiaomi fine tunes theirs cam software especially video recording. The stuttering issue on my mi9t video recording was never fixed until they ended support on it.
Price performance wise POCO F4 is a great phone for someone buying a new phone right now or upgrading from an older chipset. OIS will surely get improvements with software in future. I am very happy with F3 using SD870 and I am sure you will be even happier with an upgraded F4 with OIS, better camera and faster charging. And yes, do put the right GCam version for POCO F4. For photos GCam is superior (better contrast, more details in darker areas, sharper images, better exposure of the sky and bright lights), while for videos the stock Camera app is better due to great stabilization (on F3 at least).

F3 will be fine for the next few years no problem. I just prefer having a brand new phone every year. As far as dimming, put it under direct sunlight in automatic brightness, and you'll see, as soon as the phone gets to 35 degrees Celsius, brightness will go down to manual, which is about 40% lower. And that normally happens after three minutes in summer temperatures.

I think the thermal is actually better than Poco F3 you can try and test it by yourself to feel the difference
The phone gets hotter than the F3 because of its better thermal dissipation...

Still doesn't warrant an upgrade from the POCO F3 for me. Happy with F3 Global 256GB/8GB with none of the dimming or other issues you mentioned on your post 😊
F3 will be fine for the next few years no problem. I just prefer having a brand new phone every year. As far as dimming, put it under direct sunlight in automatic brightness, and you'll see, as soon as the phone gets to 35 degrees Celsius, brightness will go down to manual, which is about 40% lower. And that normally happens after three minutes in summer temperatures.
No notification LED, no expandable storage, amoled displays prone to screen burns, a useless macro camera and no headphone jack (comeon where will I plug my external mic??). Tech is going backwards. Thanks i love my Poco F1
They'll bring it in the next two years and ask more money for it 😂😂
Grapes are sour..F3 Was a decent version..it was worth Upgrading
This guy's voice sounds similar to the guy in Darkness Prevails.
i follow gsmarena as they make quality videos but there is always a common problem with sound, loudness is too low that without headphones it’s tough to understand what's being delivered.
permenant missed message alert... has the 3 and 4 got this.. ie when wake in morning glance at fone and immediately see if anything has come in ..like all fones had 2 yrs ago. if you speak to manufacturers please tell them a PERMENANT missed meeesage alert is needed on menu, or praps its on these fones.
Please help me my earphone adapter is not connecting 😓please help who has solution
POCO F4 HAVE NFC ?
Same overheating problem with my F3
Of Poco series , F2 Pro is still brilliant !!!!
bro, you looks good with short hair 👍
One heck of a phone, if only the F3 didn't exists in the first place 😌
POCO F3 still bossing it. And I find the picture quality pretty good too with GCam.
@@user-em2hg6cu5u bossing what exactly. This one is even better than the boss. By a little bit in few things but still better.
F3>F4
@@FCJEY why? Because you have it? 🤣🤣 It's not, and I have them Both now. Will be selling the f3 now. Let me know if you wanna buy it.
@@andriandri732 because it's not a big upgrade, only ois & faster charging and uglier design. F3 is a beast for the price . F4 is F3 rebranded nothing special
16mp?
Isn't the main cam 64mp?
Saved in 16MP
It uses 4 in 1 binning
tirble ui , tirble ultrawide camera , no software support
price?
My problem with those review is that they don’t speak much about durability, sofware update and performance after 1 year, 2 years, 3 years.
And please don’t tell me about your custom rom. It’s a geek thing. My mom and most people don’t know about custom rom like they don’t know how to open their laptop to clean fans or replacing SDD or RAM. Most people are avergae customer who just want a phone and keep it 3 years
Send your mom over, I'll help her out 🤗
And you get two android updates and 3 miui updates.
@@andriandri732 i understand that but for me it's not enough when you know that Iphone SE model have long update and Samsung phone from A and S series will now having 4 years OS Update and 5 Years of security update.
And also, i see a lot of review or comment talking about bad performance after updates on Poco or Redmi ...
Can you use F3 case?
Yes. You can use a condom too.
No not same back design
Plz review Nothing phone
Poco f4 or xiaomi 11t?
xiaomi 11t is better device
@@aimanfitri0iv its better device but a bit more expensive
@@aimanfitri0iv like largely more expensive
@@vonrickmacabenta1853 but still i recommend it
F3 is better, it's been proven.
I miss Angie 🥺
What is it better in?
Price, macro, build quality and so on😂
@@Mezthecreator Also over a year of stability patches and updates to make the software experience more stable and remove bugs. Have faced none with my usage, really happy on my F3 with MIUI 13.
Who is Angie and what happened to her?
The camera of this phone is really terrible and indoor photos are just unusable. surprised with your camera review.
this looks exactly like redmi note 11 pro 5g....
XIAOMI Has Been Sadly Faltering Lately...And It's Bloody Annoying...4500mAh Battery...Can't Even Put At Least 5000mAh Battery??????👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
I'ma buy this. Need to replace my F1.
me too i run poco f1 with custom roms cause miui is not updated there! But i think this phone is pricey and i try to find something cheaper and as good as this
My F1 still working fine so I might wait till F5 :D
I'll bet the poco F5 will have better chipset
I bet poco f6 will have even a better one. Also there's no better snapdragon chip than this one currently, there are faster ones but not around better ones. So you get the best available since you lot can't afford the fastest anyway. There's f4 gt with a faster chip, why don't you get it?
Poco f9 better
Guess what it does
Poco f4 best phone i like poco f4 phone♥️♥️
Yea before the update
I still ain't moving from the F2 Pro. 😎
F4💪💪💪
Me watching on my Poco F4
I cancelled my order because I think it's lacking in camera department. Less contrast photos and OIS is clearly not working. Unfinished product
poco never had a good camera
Use gcam
What shall I do to my order, arriving July 15, also ordered Nothing 1 pass waiting for price & camera quality... Have to cancel tomorrow...
@@danii4646 nothing to worry , average camera for average user. Use gcam and you're all set.
@@danii4646 Price performance wise POCO F4 is still a great phone. OIS will surely get improvements with software in future. I am very happy with F3 using SD870 and I am sure you will be even happier with an upgraded F4 with OIS, better camera and faster charging.
And yes, do put the right GCam version for POCO F4. For photos GCam is superior (better contrast, more details in darker areas, sharper images, better exposure of the sky and bright lights), while for videos the stock Camera app is better due to great stabilization (on F3 at least).
Poco needs usb c 3.0. It can't output display which makes it unsuitable for gaming
Dude no one offers USB 3.0 in this segment or even in most flagships. Only ultra phones like the S22 Ultra or the OnePlus 10 Pro get one. I don't even know what you're talking about. Who wants to game on an external display with a phone anyway connected to a USB port? You must be high or something.
@@ArchisLikhitkar .
It can output display with a mhl adapter. You just won't get a 4k resolution.
@@ArchisLikhitkar except you do with Motorola g100 and g200 at even cheaper price than f4.

@@burdulinika2005 what does binning down mean?
Nive review .. and nice haircut either 🤣
youre attractive!
I miss Angie... 😢
Gsmarena has had do much inaccurate info lately, it must be due to the new inferior staff. Fact checking has been unacceptable. Go check the info on poco f4 under the headline, best flagship killers 2022. Most of the info about poco f4 is wrong there. I'm only mentioning this example cause it's relevant to this video.
Yeah and, back of the f4 is glass, not plastic. What are you people smoking in Sofia?! 🤣
@@andriandri732 I am so sorry they just dismissed the POCO F4 you love so dearly in favor of the F3. Should have stayed on the F3, this time you will have to upgrade your phone twice in a year, shouldn't be a problem for you Mr. Money Bags 😂
@@user-em2hg6cu5u dude, I have them both still. F4 is better and it's a brand new model. So a no brainer which one I'm. Keeping. As far as moneybags, it's more like you being poor than me being rich. I mean like what's 400 euros?!Its not like I bought a ferrari 🤣
@@andriandri732 Well if you are happy with paying 400 euros for an overpriced F3, who am I to judge?
@@andriandri732 Same for me. 👍🏿. Poco F4 is my 2nd phone ( already own a 13 Pro ) and this phone is quite good, it’s a midrange phone and it does what i think it would do:
- Good screen, performance with SD870 and battery life
- Good average photos in daylife and bad pictures in low light
- Some bugs with MIUI but nothing which is blocking me
449€ is a good for me. I wanted to test a midrange with a powerful chip.
I have been hesitating with Nothing Phone 1 and Samsung A53 but Exynos was a no go for me.
X4 GT >>>> F4
no amoled => no way
@@iAfroTech no thanks. Bad tech

Worst phone of all Poco phone
