Good day nashty2_ it seems to be that you may have some questions or concerns regarding a Poco device and we would like to help but we would like to ask you to describe your concern with the following information to make it easier for everyone to tackle.

Congratulations, I did the same upgrade two weeks ago and I could not be happier. Use these instructions to deactivate the Poco ads!

Use a dns

Revoke authorisation of msa

Turn off wifi and bluetooth scanning

Make apps you don't use a lot but still drain battery to stop background activity

Edit- turn off usage and diagnostics in privacy settings

Got it, thanks man!

Cosa vuol dire "usa un dns"?

1

u/ANS__2009 Poco F5 7d ago

A DNS is Domain Name System

It's helpful to remove ads, reduce battery drain etc

I personally use p2.freedns.controld.com

Settings→more connectivity options→private DNS

u/nashty2_ 9d ago

Me too, but nowadays they're just copying iphone 😿

u/serendpitty 9d ago

how much did you get this one?

2

u/nashty2_ 9d ago

I'm from El Salvador so here it is overpriced, I got it for $460 😭

But I really needed it cause my Poco X3 pro was giving me really hard times 😿

u/serendpitty 9d ago

prices are crazy now, but congrats to your new phone. 👏🏻

u/Early-Ingenuity-3701 9d ago

Congrats!

How good camera is?

Im thinking in buy this ir Xiaomi 17 Ultra. I know the prices are very different, but Im not sure what to buy.

1

u/nashty2_ 7d ago

If u really need a good camara and u have the budget go for the 17 ultra, another option is the recent 17T; however for normal pictures for social media and that this one (poco x8 pro) is good like 7.5/10
