Greets All,
Ordered on 21/03 , collected 23/03. Spent 2 weeks trying to unlock due to SWMBO's laptop only having USB 3 ports. Got a USB 2 hub and unlocked in 5 min (4 min of that was booting the laptop). Moved over to my Linux PC and everything is now peachy. Just got to backup WhatsApp & SMS, switch sims and download backups and then I can semi-retire my Moto X4. Enjoying my Poco F1 so far.

Got my Pocophone F1 2 weeks ago and updated to MIUI 10.3.4.0 1March security patch. Very pleased with this phone, fast and smooth and so far no problems to report. MIUI for Poco is better than MIUI on previous
Xiaomi phones.

Hello!
Got my POCO F1 6/64 wariant on the 30th. Switched from Nokia 6.1 which i damaged.

I had previously Redmi Note 3 SE so the Pocophone F1 experience is not new to me. The performance and battery life are great. I unlocked the BL and loaded MIUIPolish edition (based on xiaomi.eu ROM).

Cheers ! :)
