Xiaomi has released a new flagship smartphone

One variant comes with 6GB RAM with 64 GB internal storage, the other two with 6GB RAM and 128 GB ROM, and 8GB and 256 GB internal storage. The Poco F1 comes in three configurations- 6GB+64GB priced at Rs 20,999, 6GB+128GB version priced at Rs 23,999 and the 8GB+256GB storage option that retails for Rs 28,999.

The idea behind Poco was that the brand would leverage Xiaomi's supply chain prowess but would create something different from Xiaomi's main product line and experimenting with new ideas something Xiaomi wouldn't be able to do with its own legacy franchises.

The specs are top notch though, and the highlight here is, of course, the Snapdragon 845 chipset and Qualcomm Adreno 630 GPU that makes up the core of the device.

You may have thought the OnePlus 6 was unbeatable in terms of good value for money, starting at $529 in the United States with a Snapdragon 845 processor, 6GB RAM, and 64GB internal storage, as well as a sharp and trendy screen and dual rear-facing cameras.

The Poco F1 houses a 6.18-inch IPS LCD notched display that produces up to 500-nits brightness and offers a contrast ratio of 1500:1. The front selfie camera is a 20 megapixel sensor and the cameras at the back as well ass front come with dual tone flash. It carries support for 18W fast charging through Quick Charge 3.0 technology. In fact, it also outdoes some of the features of this phone like the IR sensor for face unlock and the larger battery. The other connectivity features available on the Poco F1 include dual VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, USB-C and 3.5mm audio jack.

So cheer for me, cheer for Venus. "I was sweating a lot and it was not ideal conditions, but I am happy to get through". Nadal won 46 of 55 first-serve points and wore down Vasek Pospisil, 6-3, 6-4, 6-2, in Ashe Stadium.

The POCO F1 offers the LiquidCool technology which is a flagship exclusive feature. The POCO F1 will make its debut in Hong Kong, France, and Indonesia on August 27.

After India, the Poco F1 (will be called Pocophone F1) will be launching in 50 other countries across the world starting with Indonesia, Hong Kong and France on August 27th. There will also be an armored edition with a special Kevlar back (below right). Xiaomi also added a liquid cooling system to the smartphone to save it from overheating while gaming.

The POCO F1 is well built, looks good, and will compete with phones such as the OnePlus 6, Samsung Galaxy S9, Asus Zenfone 5Z, LG G7 ThinQ, Xiaomi Mi 8, and even the brand new Galaxy Note 9.

However, it is the value for money pricing of the Poco F1 that makes it stand out among its competitors.

The phone will ship with Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box with the MIUI on top. It also sports Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. The front camera is 20 MP. Another way to unlock the F1 is via the fingerprint sensor which resided on the rear panel of the phone. The cameras support AI scene detection, AI portrait mode, and AI beauty mode. There are also features like third-party app icon support. HDFC Bank credit and debit card users will get a Rs 1000 discount, while Reliance Jio users will get up to 6TB of data and Rs 8000 worth of benefits.
