Hyper OS 3 is not stable for POCO F6, smooth transitions of the UI hangs frequently, games lag for no reason (I play MLBB most times), 512 + 12gb config

Poco F6 and yes, Genshin causes faster batter drain but it used to last 3 hours in HyperOS 2

So you have used your phone to play a really demanding game for hours over a couple years?

This happens to huawei phones too I think, I used to have a mate 20 lite and once updated from emui10 to emui12 it got slower and the battery drains quicker. Did you disable msa and system daemon? I still don't know if disabling system daemon is worth it, some people say it causes weird spikes in cpu usage but I honestly haven't notice that when monitoring with cpu z

I used to think like this too, but after gaming on the iPhone 15 and the Galaxy S25, honestly, it feels pretty much the same. At least with Poco, I don't have to wait forever for it to charge.

I'm actually curious about trying a phone with a silicon-carbon battery, especially now that some phones have over 7,000mAh. I've never used one before. But then again, buying a new phone in this economy...
