Poco F2 Pro - User Interface, Camera App & Gaming Performance

Everyone we've got here as the PACE f2 pro this as a flagship Android smartphone for 2020 that has a snapdragon 865 and, as you can see this as a 5g phone now, I've not been able to taste 5g signal. I, don't actually have a 5g SIM card yet, but I have tested everything else and that's why I want to talk about in this video I'd like to show you the menu system show you know the thus can show you all the settings and really just talk about what it's like to actually use the Poco AF to approve every single day. This video is not for everyone. This video is for people who are intending on buying this phone. Now there is a tendency for many YouTubers to just rush out videos, but I have been using us every single day for three weeks, so I, don't know why I like, and I do know what I don't like at this point. So I will take this phone away for a second just to show you the box and show you that the version I have.

Is this sexy phantom way that has got sex gigabytes of RAM and 128 gigabytes of storage? The other version I haven't seen it yet that I was apparently a version coming out with 8 gigabytes of RAM and 256 gigabytes of storage, I haven't seen anywhere. Maybe it won't come out at some point, but I've certainly not seen, are available for sale, so I've done an unboxing and a dead other videos about this so check those out. But what I'd like to do is just kind of go over the design. Now you can see that I've got a case on it at this point, and that says the case that comes and the box. That says the case that comes in the box and just briefly talking about the case, you can see that there is an opening at the top here, which leaves it a little exposed and there's no huge left corner either.

So this is obviously not the most protective case that you can buy. The Robin cases are the other protectors for better, but seeing that I love how slim fewer cases, which is why I've not replaced it. Yeah, and it's just so late, it doesn't make the phone bulky, which unfortunately most cases that do protect your phone. Well, they just make your phone unnecessarily bulky. So the case of the three one is not too flexible.

It's actually quite a hard case, but I really do like this case, despite the fact as part as exposed. So let's take a walk around the born here. Just to show you what's here at the back, you can see the quad camera system and s8 here. You've got the power button, and then you've got the volume rocker now I won't see the power button. I like the fact that sees red I, think that looks really nice.

It's kind of reminiscent of the Google Pixel phones that I've got a different color for the per button, but the possession of the power button is just excellent and not as something that people don't think about. But it's super important to me: someone who's bought a Samsung phone who puts the per bar and we up there, and you always have to shuffle your hand up. This is in the perfect possession. So that's good. The volume rockers there as well there are no buttons down the side at all.

Now at the top, you can see that there's a headphone jack, that's something that you don't get many phones today, and it's something that I like, because I do connect microphones to it and that's the thing with us cases well normally with Casey's when the cases or- and it sounds to quite hard to connect, headphone, jacks and microphones correctly. So you need to take the key so say only for me. You know with using microphones, and thanks a lot for YouTube videos, but because this is exposed here. Yes, it's not good for protection, but it does mean that you can connect everything to the jack pretty well, so power volume rocker it there you've got a may clear, headphone, jack, and then you've got well. We know what that is.

Don't we know where that as guys that as the camera, yes, that is where the camera is hidden and that's something we'll talk about? Little talk with a camera up later, but that we are the camera is hidden. This is a this. Is a 20 megapixel sensor, and it hadn't at the talked. The benefit of that, of course, is that you have this old screen display. You don't have any bars at a talk.

You've got a very thin bezel. Furthermore, you don't have a notch. Furthermore, you don't have like a teardrop camera like the way we PC up. It goes here. It's just the display, and you know that's pretty good.

Don't at the bottom, you've obviously got a SIM card, a slot. The air you've got the USB, see a connecting port, and you've got a make, and you've got the speaker. No reason I'm seeing speaker and not speakers is because well there's only one there's only one speaker here: I will do a test later I'll. Let you hear what it sounds like as you'd expect with one speaker: it's not it's not leaving a few — yeah. So this is a SIM card.

Tray I, don't know before there is no sank, a micros card slot here, but the as to some card slots. Now, when I first opened this up, I thought this was just a single Sun card. Tree I just saw one, but the second one is on the other side, so you can put two SIM cards on this, but you are limited to the storage that you get when you buy the phone so yeah, that is a design of the phone I think the actual design here I think this is excellent. This really does punch above its weight. This is an affordable phone one of F, not the most affordable flagship phone of 2020 and I.

Think that this is a premium boat. I think it looks excellent, and you know if you don't see that the air you'd maybe think this is a Samsung phone or something from a more expensive brand, so I think the boat quality is perfect. It's really thin despite being a big phone. You know as most phones out today, but despite that is quite late, and it's its quite it's quite easy to hold in hand in the purpose, / buttons in the right position, etc. So design, wise, you know, design is always subjective, but I think this is a good-looking phone and I think it's great to use.

So you can see here that I've got an always-on display. No I, don't always use this, but that says one of the options that you have where you can just you know see your notifications on the phone both times. This is something used to see a lot back in the day. I. Remember: HTC phones used to use it with the cases where it will show you the time and show you notifications, and then you'd open up and the form it opens up.

But yes, I would say that that's what's great! Well, I, don't use it that much of Ramona stuff switched on just to show you guys up. So here we've got the fingerprint sensor now. I have made it very, very clear that I still think that the fingerprint sensors from a few years ago, which would at the back I've, always failed that doors are better, the more responsive, the faster there's, fewer mistakes and switching from the back of the original poke at the original Paco f1 and switching from the fingerprint sensor there to the front was not good for me, because I was so used to everything being responsive, never making any mistakes, and then I was kept pushing it here, and it will work, but technology is moving forward, and I do think. On-Screen, fingerprint sensors are coming well they're coming forward. Quite a lot I would see, can get us here.

Yeah, I would say that this as without, though the best fingerprint cents that I have ever used. It's just it works. I still make mistakes occasionally every day, no pressure, and it just doesn't catch. My thumb right. You know, maybe I put my thumb in the wrong position, but this works great, and we're very close to the point we have.

The on-screen fingerprint sensor is just as good as the one that used to be in the back, so yes, I'm, very happy with the fingerprint sensor. No, the other thing about unlocking the phone as well. You saw that deal with the front camera, no normally with other phones. You've got the front camera here, or it's a nun or something, and that means that you just look at the phone, and we'll open up the phone. What that's one you do have to slide the camera up, so I'll show you here.

I can point it towards me and I just slide this up, and it's easy. Even with my headphones on it can see me, and it does on look so there you go so face. Unlock is something I've used, the law and other Android phones, and it's a feature I really do like, and I was really conscious about that. When I was buying nested facing a that face unlocks would be a little squirrel. It wouldn't be a responsive.

It's not that much of a hassle. I will see that it's not that much of a hard, so I thought it'd be a lot about by hundreds, because you know that the cameras that has the Pop as a nest- oh crack, obviously you're waiting slightly longer, but it's not a hassle. I will see as well. You know and the flip side to that as one of the one of the coolest things about this phone as the sloppy camera, and it's still something that grabs attention, and it stole something that people go. Oh, what's that, but, as with all kind of you know, gadgets and little way features like that.

After a while, you don't know, sir, it just becomes another part of the phone and the gimmick kind of wears off feeling correctly not a bad way. But you know it's the first few days like whoa. Look at that that's cool, but then, after a few days, you're like yeah, okay, that's fine, but really the main benefit of this pop-up camera being here is so that you get this whole screen display. So I'll put us back in the case because now, if I leave off just now, let's leave off just now just we sat there because what I want to do is jump over to the website, and we're just briefly talk about specifications. So this is the official website, official poker website and I.

Looked that's before I'll show you guys, so I. Don't want to dwell on this too much. But if you want to fill specs as to what this can do, you can see why face x5 g etc. The 4700 William battery. If you want to learn more about us, please visit this website.

Check. I refer to the specifications page, and you know you'll see everything about. That's for, and you'll see the colors are available, you'll see the main features and all that what about see as that, when I initially reviewed this one I think when I was unboxing it there was a part and a home page that say that had L ddr5 ROM but, as you can see here, the version I've got has got lpddr4 X ROM Andrea, face 3.1 for storage, I'll, leave a link to the DSM arena. Page as well, this is perhaps an easier so many to look at you can see the main features here, such as the SEC's point. Six inch display a court counter system, the battery size and there's a lot of other things here, but you can refer to that.

You can see all the different sensors in the back 64 513 in two, and then you've got the 20 million pixels motorized pop-up selfie camera there as well. So there's no denying that that's as a powerful phone as a powerful phone as a flagship phone, you are going to get flagship, a performance and a flagship experience. So let's talk about the speaker, this speaker now in other phones. What normally happens is you get a speaker there, and then you've got another speaker at the top. You know kinda hidden around here, but this does not have that.

Unfortunately, so please, so what I would say about us, as that you know for podcasts and things that are that sang speaker is fine. Obviously, with vocals is not a problem with music. This is really light. So, from a volume point of view, this is really loud, but with music you get to the top end, and it sounds really, really tiny, even more so than other smartphones that I've used over the last few years it just it's just loud, then you can tell that it's a single speaker. You know at the end of the day, you're working with a single speaker there, and that is the downside to that you get to the higher volumes.

It's really, really tiny, it's just it just doesn't sound good, but for podcasts or for just watching YouTube videos and things of that. It's fine Netflix and all that is fine. But this isn't going to replace your Bluetooth speakers any time soon or your headphones, but Tim, it's very, very loud. You can see I'm, not even it fill volume, the other, and it's its more than big enough I mean this phone has liked all four to make some sacrifices. You know that's got like a really cool system in here, which means that it doesn't heat up, and it does seem to work really well, it doesn't heat up.

So it's got a really cool, a cooling system in here which helps with performance but from the speaker's point of view yeah average. At best this is average its load, but not be just something to be remained, but as I've seen performance as something else does leaden know and comparison to the leap, the real me, a crafty Pro, which I did review quite recently, I would say this feels less snappy, not by much but just a little. No I won't talk about performance later because, interestingly, the SSD rate speeds are slower, but everything else is faster, but I will say you know really net packing when I talk about ask anything. This is really really really fast. For and obviously you know connecting to websites will depend on your internet speed, Ada, yada, but after things about love, Apple running the link here, but aim yeah.

That's. Thus, as this is fast, you know, you're browsing the web you're jumping around in different pages as it's fast, its rapid, no problems at all performance way. So that's all good. That is all good, so performance, wise from a browsing point of view from a usability point of view, does fun as excellent, and you know what else is excellent, but as falling its something I have talked about in my other video, it's battery life and this phone is absolutely fantastic. Now that's charges are theater, warts, I think I charged up at thirty point: five Watts when I was using it and the battery life on this is just outstanding.

So I just stopped recording to check my battery test video there, because these figures threw me off a queue battery is seeing that what a 100% charge the screen on time with fiber or screen offers the combined usage of 18 URLs, that is 100% and correct, is giving an estimated capacity of 4350 as well. But this is incorrect.100% incorrect I believe it's because I've not been using the app I've not used this app since I did that battery test video a few weeks ago, because I had no need to taste anything because I knew what battery life was like. But these figures are incorrect. When I first used that I was using a cube battery every single day, the combined usage here were 47 hours and not as what I see day today, I'm getting a day and a half to two days, sometimes more of battery life and if I go into that two battery and performance area. This isn't the main settings area.

I can show you the battery usage starts. It's been 23 hours since the last charge, and it says I've got nearly 18 hours remaining no FI on airplane mode, so I don't get any notifications. Then Dye was up to 21 hours and F I, activate bat receiver, the now seen 33 hours and not really as what I'm seeing I'm using YouTube and blows on the web and checking emails and replying to everything, and I'm getting a day and a half to two days of charge, and you can see that they are 23 years old. Since the last charge and I've stopped at 44% battery that we don't show you what I'm, what I'm getting here so battery life as without though one of the greatest features of this phone I've not seen anything else and another flagship for like the ceiling with a skinless Lodge for many years, and obviously I'm going to stay the obviously out. But obviously, if you use the battery saver, you extend battery life.

If you turn down the brightness- and you know you extend that if you turn it up, if you're playing games all the time, you'll use up more battery that you know that goes without saying, but I won't say battery life as amazing, endless fun, possibly because of the display. This has not got the best display and a phone. It really doesn't. This is not the best display, you'll see in a phone this year. Nearly all the phones in 2020 I've got a fast refresh rate.

They've got 90 hairs, 120 Hertz, 144 hells. This has got a sexy, Hills display and that's perhaps one reason you know in conjunction with the 4,700 William battery, but that's perhaps one reason why battery life is so goodness. This is not the best screen, you'll see on a phone last year, but seeing up and a lot of these high refresh rate phones, you know, Nine has 120, helps the minute. You apply a battery saver, it reduces their refresh rate back down into sex the hairs, in other words, if you buy a phone with 90s or 120 hairs for display to actually use that you row use up more battery life and for some people that's with the one they want, the higher refresh rate they wanted to feel more fluid, but for me, I would actually take battery life. I.

Think battery life to me is more important and to me. Thus, as you know, the display is more than good enough, like old phones when you're outside, and it's really blade. You might struggle a little. You know as far as seeing the for and that's something I think most phones are guilty of. So, let's can I just browse around the settings area and show you what this is like as far as using it and as I was seeing performance is good.

You know browsing everything, switching between screens, it's so excellent. It really is excellent. One of the things I like about this and I mean I, usually not normally use a launcher. I'm using the defaults can hear from Jamie and I like the way that they've changed the body categories at the top and just changed how everything's structured so for the most part already seem to be correct as far as how you'd of split them up the same thing, static GoPro should obviously be in photography, but the Etiquette adapts into different categories, and it does help you find the app that you're looking for some things. I do find it quite useful, and you can modify that you can customize this Leo.

You can change their app categories, and you can create your own categories and all that as well. You can add more and I. Think that's a nice feature. I do think. That's a nice feature overall, though I would say that this is not one of my favorite skins on Android.

It's just not my favorite one of the reasons for that as they've added a lot of really crappy apps, and you know like Xiaomi apps. Now you can remove these. You can remove these, but the value these things like cleaner and security and all that I know a lot of a company. Do that. Samsung I know that the other all these default apps, but they most of them.

You can remove them, but the default apps that they gave you the Volga advertisements which I don't like I. Just don't like the fact that they've bundled software out that's go out. Put Iceman so under I have held their official stance on they're, seeing that they do this and because they want to make money, and it's why they can deliver phones. It's such a know, small profit margin, but I. Just don't like the idea of saying ops were on my phone, and I've got advertisements, but it's maybe I, sell away for me.

Ii think like that, because if I downloaded a cleaner from another company, their worth of advertising on it anyway, what I would say, though, is uninstalling an app is just annoying because it's like, like you, need to click on it like I'll show you like see. I want to remove, not see a beam, B and say I want to remove one of these apps right and that's crazy, just right. So click on that and normally and I enjoy. That will come up uninstall, but you have to go to app and fool, so I need to go to app and full and then uninstall, but some sometimes it seems a little difficult to do that as far as I would remove it now and some things when you click on an app it just doesn't seem to catch it right with your lake, and you click on it and see. You know you need to quote that up and for some things that doesn't show up late, and it'll.

Try it drag it to the screen. Another thing I don't like about it, either as their split screen, I use, YouTuber law and when I'm watching YouTube I need to your know: I normally browse email. What I'm just fetching and doing different things that it same time, so I'm watching something, and you were doing something at the bomb. Normally, what I do in other phones as I will hold this button here, and then I will, you know it just allows me to add a second app, but what you need to do is do that. Click corner then go a split screen, and then you know you can add Chrome or whatever again I'm Kane Annette packing here as just day-to-day.

It seems like they've added an extra step and certain things to do things it. You know it's just annoying and not. We and I stole yours about it's, not about us. It really I play for in-state, and I can use another launcher. Of course, it's far as setting store very easy to navigate.

You know there are no problems here and as far as using it and there's a ton of options here, as you would expect, there's always on display. There's definitely splay options here as well, so in the vibration you've got a home screen, not the most exciting thing to navigate themes, definite themes that you can apply yeah, it's very easy to navigate, and I mean as far as these digital well-being a parental control and all that there's a lot of additional settings here. You can see that I just wouldn't use um. You know one handed mode, I, don't think one handed mode is necessary because the per button is down here. So there's always cool features on here cannot power for the course with Android now I would see, and yeah not my favorite skin I probably would normally use a launcher with us, but you know, as far as how it's set up I'm, keen on that packing yeah, but yeah, that's as Jamie's skin, but without though it as fast.

So let's talk about the camera up. Let's talk about the camera up. I have that the video we have walked out say Dan I spent a few days. Excuse me: it's been a few days taking videos with the front camera and the back camera. Now I've talked about all that already I.

Don't really want to focus too much on video quality, because I've spoked about your, and I'll talk about again in the final review. I just want to show you the actual camera art, because I have failed to this camera app a lot and my video- and this is a common camera app. You know see. You know it's applied on many Android phones and as you go, there's the selfie camera coming out and yeah it's its okay, I mean you can see. It's got slow motion, short video mode, you've got photos, their beauty and photos, and you've got super slow, regular, different options here and video mode Israel get different photos of the beauty photos Coca and if you click up here, you can see the video quality.

Now the interesting thing about that says you can do 1080p at 30 frames per second, but if you switch to the back camera, there's a 8k mode, but there's also four key at a 60 frames per second, so you could eat key theater frames per second. There I only take a regular 8 key for out to disappear, so that's 1080p, 30 1080p at 60, 4k, 30 porky at 60 frames per second. So as far as the options available as far as the recording modes, there 's's quite a lot here. You know: I thought the movie, 3 modules click abroad adds up border. We've got this vlog mode track moving objects, state lines, hmm and with the photos you've got HDR you put the flash AI as macro mode macro cameras.

Click. You watch this quick cool that you can use that as well. Then you get different beauty in photos. I mean I, normally just use it in auto mode. When I'm using this uh from honest sex, the 4 megapixels, there's a portrait mode, and you get a bucket effect.

You've got an 8 mode, which I thought performed really well panorama, and then you've got the pro mode where you can set the ISO and say avoid different things, exposure, etc. and I mean it's fairly easy to use, I, don't think anyone's going to have any problems with us. As always, you can use your own video. Add an application. If you want no problems here and there ask some customized will a customization options here.

You've got as far as um. You know camera zones, and you see the video encoder that you use. That's one pop up camera. Ah, this is the one thing that I forgot to show you earlier. So this is another thing.

Obviously, you've got the pop-up camera here, and I showed you that you know it pops up, but what you can do is you can change the color any color that you want? What's the inner color you want, you get five colors, but yeah, that's pretty good that you can customize it, and you can see that you're opening the front camera too frequently it's stopping me, and you're definitely sound effects and all that as well. So all these definite effects when it loads up, so you can do that's you know. Obviously you put the front camera yeah. So that's a so that's all good, but what I would see is seen when you were getting out a Norfolk case in the air, but it was seen that the it was popping up and I have seen it's going to faster, etc. I found annoying that F fame, for example, taking a video, and it pops up, and then I need to change the settings or going to change.

Something I'll go back down, and then you come back. Helen needs to pop it back up again, and you're like we'll. Just keep it open, keep it open. There's no reason for that to go back, though, and just keep it there. Just no I'm, just changing a correct setting.

I don't need that to go back and then go back up, but essentially when this is not being used. If your than any other screen does pop up, camera will just disappear or go back and that's maybe part of the mechanism. I don't know, but you can see that there are some things BO into this, so that you know a protects the mechanism, and you don't overuse, and you don't break it. So, yes, I've got the same defect back again, so the camera app as is functional, but it's certainly not the most amazing or the exciting camera app available out. There's a lot of things here.

There are a lot of things. They are the sale and off there to keep you busy as far as video features and photo features and definitely a video on photo modes. You know short video beauty, photos etc. So, as far as a default, camera app goes is okay, it's not the most exciting, but it's functional. Let's see I mean this is kind of what most Android camera apps look like today.

So let's talk about performance, you can see. I've got a folder here, performance and I. Think I've done the brightness up to hide her yeah, that's right for you guys, so we've got performance here now. I've performed a few tests for this already now the results here, if I click on it, oh I need to go back onto the Internet as airplane mode off. So he's shown you here that the read speed is 1050, two point: five one megabyte's per second and 188 point three five, and then you've got the other one.

There I believe that was the one. This test was the one without both received on the one it talked. The party receive, are actually performed better, but you can see read speeds just over a thousand rate speeds just under 200 188 megabits per second now, that's lower than Y got with the real, the Realme and wonder: taste I got just under 1,300 for reading and writing of 250. So as far as reading and writing goes thus as lower than the Realme 50x50, Prada interviewed, but they're so fast. This is certainly faster than most phones on the market.

When it comes to reading and writing, you know if you compare this to other phones on the market, you will see that this has certainly one of the fastest for reading and writing. You know over a thousand megabytes per second is really, really impressive, so reading and writing is good. It's not the fastest on the market per se, but certainly at the top end. As far as reading a rating goes. So, let's look at Geek bench performance.

There are two tests here. The first one is CPU, and it measures the performance of CPUs at performing everyday tasks and the second one compute does the same, but it does it for GPUs. So you can see the other adrenal 650. So I performed these tests a few days ago, and I performed them twice. Firstly, I guess we call it regular mode and the second one I put on the path receiver and the scores were pretty much identical, which to me shows that the battery saver does not affect performance, so that's good to see, but it's got a single core score layer of 19 multicore of three to five eight and what the real makes 50 pro I was getting NATO three and three one, six four! So we're seeing a lot of performance jumps here, 1% 2% 3%, and you see this across all the CPU and GPU tests.

So whilst the of tip ode interviewed recently has got faster reading rating claims, perhaps because of the cooling bow under this, but the poke wave to a pro seems to be able to get more from the same chip same so for the computer score, the GPL score I'm getting three one, eight three with the path receiver and a lot less without it. But again these tests can vary and comparison. The extra 50 pro got three one to seven so again, you're talking about like a 1% jump. Now all of these figures came those seem meaningless. Son and I think they are in a way.

I mean I'm, always a believer in using real-life performance. Browsing using you know, playing games and browsing the web watching videos etc. , but you can see how he does compare to other phones from previous years. The Plus 70, you know you've got a poke. We have to pull here, 904 757, why we PE approval from last year, sex 8 for Galaxy Note, implying 5, the Samsung Galaxy phones, a lot of exchange, because the snapdragon phones perform similarly, because then on chaps or xenon, those simply perform really well and some tests and really badly in others.

But you can see that that is performing well just amazingly, it's just smashing all the phones from last year, and it stands up next to phones. From this year. Multi-Core there you go: 3, 2, 2, 3, yeah, just smashing all the phones from last year and in a computer. This is a GPL score, and you see a 3-1 83, but compared to the Samsung Galaxy S II and no II those xenon chips are giving us. Rosie knows they are no steps of can pronounce it properly.

Those chaps seem to get in high scores, I'm, not sure about why that is. But you know compared to other phones from last year, PGA pro et cetera. The score is better I've also tested the pool f2 Pro using 3d marks. So this is about three different tests and again the firstly taste out without the battery saver and the next three weather and the scores are almost identical. Really, there's an actual saw a slight performance, but best with the battery saver on and again compared to the LT pro.

These scores are slightly better, not by much, but they are slightly better, a seven one, nine cycles again, seven one, seven, seven, that kind of thing, and all these scores again. It's really just to give you an indication as to how those foreign performs against other phones. So I, don't really bog you down with all these figures. I do think that salient point. All these figures are kind of meaningless, but I will say that if I had to choose between better reading rate performance or GPU performance, I would say that they expect a pro feels faster, because it's got faster reading and rating teams and on a day-to-day basis, recording videos taking photos, etc.

That will give you more real life improvement over a 1 or 2 percent. You know performance boost when you're playing a game or something, so I would say that reading and writing is not as good as and say on other phones, but it's those smashes most of the phones in the market, so yeah performance is great. Performance is great and clearly their cooling system is getting the most of the Snapdragon. It's X, 5 chaps said so, as you can see I'm playing Call of Duty mobile. No, and that's because at this point what I'd like to do is show you're gaming performance, and it should be no surprise.

Ok, no surprise something bad here, because I've got a big microphone in front of me, but it should be no surprise that performance is good here, and you know this is using it's not dragon a65 with the adrenaline as I showed you with, but the performance scores here as a fast phone and there's a few things to note here. Firstly, been the old screen display this as one of the key benefits of having this old screen display, because you don't have any kind of camera, no cheese there. You just have the display and that's excellent I, really don't like that, and I mean I'm, not someone who hated the nacho Haiti to the teardrop cameras. You know the punch up cameras, but I must have made, does make it look a lot of beer again yeah, and it does make a look all better when you can see the whole display in regard to audio again. This only has a single speaker down here.

I would see, though, a kind of noise and more and noise that more the speaker, I know, is that more when I'm listening to music when I'm playing a game, I just don't know it's the fact that this is only a single speaker rather than stereo, so I know it's a mode with music I, think it's more apartment music, but when you're playing games I, don't think anyone will care that you know about the fact that you've only got, and you've only got a single speaker. So here I have Need for Speed No Limits and, as you would expect, from a driving game on Android or iOS, you have to click through all these menus and harder to get to driving game, but yeah it performs really well and come on. Let me drive, let me actually drive okay, rapid launch, don't feel like it and would say what's interesting to me is that this has not been marketed as a gaming phone. It's not been marketed as one but a kind of text of all the boxes for being one. You know it does have cooling, and it doesn't have the best speakers, which is something that you normally see and gaming phones, but you can use headphones.

You can use, but this because if you are bothered, but the sounds, if you're not happy with it, but you've got this whole screen display something which most gaming phones don't have. They've normally got a camera up at us left-hand side, so you've got the old screen display. You've got decent speakers, iris II, certainly for gaming, but, more importantly, you've got a large battery. You've got 4,700 William battery, but obviously child does charge these a lot. Cracker, that's terrible and obviously does charge a lot cracker when you're playing games.

You know that goes without saying, but I would say that this is arguably one of the best ones to get for gaming, because you've got this off-screen display. You've got the headphone jack. Yes, it's a single speaker, but you know: you've got the cooling, and you've got that GPU performance. So bizarrely, this is maybe one of the best foods to buy if you're a gamer, so I've showed you Call of Duty, and I've showed you Need for Speed No Limits and both of these games will take advantage of the GPU power that is available and the pork or f2 pro, but I would say that most games don't need that amount of resources. They don't need that much power, some pro games like Mario and Scrabble and Sonic etc.

But let's do one final test, and I'll show you the scheme. You can see that game toggle misty successfully. This is a feature. You see it a lot of Android phones. Now we are, they have a game mode, that kind of optimizes everything for gaming and minimize these things in the background.

But you see everything on here. I would say again. I think this looks perfect. You know if I can do this here, I'll show you the whole screen, and it performs really well, it's fluid. It feels fast, and you know, obviously, if gamers will be looking at phones with 90 health displays and 120 Hertz displays, and things like that.

But I really don't feel that I'm losing out here, but only 60 here. So it does feel good. That does look good use, fluid dos scream displeased be I, don't have any camera at 12 getting in the way. I am dying here, and I don't have anything at the top getting in the way. And again that's one of the selling points of this phone from a gaming perspective.

I think Tessa's a perfect option. It doesn't have the higher refresh rate for the display, but you do have a headphone jack. You do have cooling, and you do have incredible battery life, and you don't have any kind of camera getting in the way here. So you've got the fuel screen for playing games. So I would say this is a perfect device for playing games.

I really would, so I hope you have all enjoyed this look at the Poco f2 Pro I realize that this has been a long video, but after using this for three weeks, I did want to explain why I like and what I don't like about this phone and perfect anyone out there who's looking to buy this phone and then say as to what you can expect. The main criticisms are hardware really about the user interface and from honest I'm kind of net packing. There's nothing here that I, don't like really I mean I can replace any of the annoyances that I have with us with a launcher. You know as far as split screen in different things. It's a Mainer thing and I: don't like the idea of apps being installed onto my phone that do have advertising BO n, but most of the apps I use have advertising anyway, and you can remove those apps.

So it really is hard to size them too much for that. It's not a big problem. Certainly when you know they explained that the pudding was apps they're, because they're trying to make money and that's as a cheap phone as a really, really cheap phone I think across the board does as a good phone. It's not perfect, but as far as using it every day, it's great I love the battery life. I love.

You know the performance I get with. You know, with browsing with YouTube and different things: the single speaker as obviously something that yeah. It's definitely I, don't say to using those phone, but you do get the battery. You do get a headphone jack. You do get that cool pop camera as well.

The fingerprint sensor is perfect as well. You know I'm really happy with the performance of the fingerprint sensor. That's something I! Don't normally see, and I do like the fact that in this case as well, you can replace it, but the one that if the one is pretty good, so that's all good across the board. I would say that this as a phone that as enjoyable to use other thing, is the phone of the year. But if you're looking for a good Android for in a good flagship Android for not a good place, it's really hard to see past us now.

I hope you've enjoyed this video, but please stay tuned for my final review, where I tie up all my thoughts on everything as far as the overall package, the place and my thoughts on the camera, etc. , but I hope you've enjoyed this video and, as always, if you get any questions about any of this, please do leave a comment below thanks for watching.
