Love my F1. Luck or nor I have no screen issues at all and the new camera features are a nice bonus. Best £300 I ever spent tbh.

How's the new camera update changed things? More functional or just more keepers?

Night mode and high FPS video (960FPS).

The issue was i was using the pixel camera app and not the POCO Camera app. Slow mo now works fine.

The pixel camera app has been updated this week and seems a lot less buggy.

The Poco can app has come on a bit so I think there's less need for gcam or whatever

I managed to damage my camera anyway so got the fiddly job of replacing that before either work well!

I have to unroot, to update.

Sorted now.

Was looking at the Pocophone F1 on Amazon yesterday for £279 or 5 monthly payments of £56 to replace my ageing Honor 7, but a few hours later the price jumped up to £329. What's that all about!

It's 275 at the moment. Third party though.

I'd just import one.

Amazon does this a lot

I wouldn't waste time getting it from them plenty of other places have them and for cheaper also if you pay with the likes of credit card you cover yourself.

Does any one here have the armoured edition? was tempted to go for the 6gb/128gb version seen it about for just under £300

I really wanted to take advantage of the 5 monthly payments option on Amazon. I wish I just bought it straight away instead of deliberating over it.

Just ordered the red one for £235 from TobyDeals to replace my damaged Nokia 8. Not bothered about UK support from Amazon, certainly not worth £100+.

Ordered this case too but might be too bulky?

DXO mark of 91.

Next OTA update is out with touch screen and battery fixes. Widewine hasn't made it in yet, meant to be coming with 4k60 next update.

Thanks for the heads up. The previous software the only problem i've noticed is Chrome going blank and needing to force quit. Hoping this gets fixed soon

Not getting that issue myself. Tried clearing the cache and restarting it?

d_brennen · 13 Mar 2019 at 16:57

Daily/heavy use of Chrome here and no issues.

MIUI 10.2.3 stable, I notice there is a pending update though, could that be part of it?
