Poco F6 Review: Should You Buy in 10 Points

Robin John

The F6 sports two large camera rings at the back, accompanied by a third smaller one that houses the flashlight. These rings slightly protrude, but the phone does not wobble much when used on a flat surface.

Design

It sports an AMOLED display and comes in the same size but with a resolution upgrade and a much brighter panel. It can go up to a 120Hz refresh rate, so the scrolling experience is smooth.

Display

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 debuts in the Poco F6. Handling daily tasks and switching between multiple apps was a piece of cake for the phone.

Performance

The F6 runs on HyperOS based on Android 14. The software allows many customisation options, especially if you like to change your lock screen quite a few times. 

UI

The F6 features a dual-camera setup at the rear, led by a 50-megapixel primary camera. Photos captured during the day have excellent details and accurate colour reproduction. 

Camera

The Poco F6 carries forward the same 5,000mAh battery from the outgoing model. That’s not necessarily bad because the phone provides a reliable screen on time.

Battery

It’s safe to say the Poco F6 carries forward the legacy of older models in this series. It supersedes its predecessors in some departments, such as the display and cameras. 

Verdict

- Excellent display - Good primary camera - Superb performance - Good battery, fast charging

What is Good?

- Bland design - Spammy bloatware apps - Gets warm under heavy load

What is Bad?

- Realme GT 6T
