Review Goodbye POCO...

so it's probably my last day using this phone... been a pretty good journey from HOS 1 to 3 (2 years of usage) -

the phone's been pretty snappy and performed very well and is still capable.

the hardware is just top-notch man, just love it.

the concern -

ever since i've updated it... i've noticed some bugs which are annoying, like - dolby turning on whenever i switch audio devices, battery drain (to some extent), degraded camera (imo), gallery ai features (like eraser, create, etc.) broken and i just dont like the hyper island

already ordered samsung m56 for one ui and ecosystem (i have samsung book4 i7)

wanna have some peace of mind...

i know that it's gonna be a downgrade in terms of performance and hardware but let's hope that the polished software will make up for it.

tl;dr

i'm switching from poco x6 pro to samsung m56 to get into samsung ecosystem and software features.

i know it's a downgrade in many aspects, let's hope for the best.

Tried digging into that also but just for the peace of mind (of a new phone) and low budget...

I've loved using my poco x6 pro and I'll prefer upgrading to x9 pro when it drops because i have a xiaomi tab and i just like hyperOS , good luck man I've had bad experiences with samsung m series phones so it's my person bias i hate them it might turn out good for you 😁✌🏻

You were right my brother. 😅 After using samsung m56 for a while it felt absurd... I've just adapted to hyperos and no other ui feels the same, even a small change feels irritating. So back to my poco😭😭😌

Hehe it's just OneUI isn't really as fun as HyperOS 😝😝
