Disclaimer - This thread is not to offend or criticize any developer or his work, it's just to show a user perspective about the work by developer and their respective expectations.

Firstly I am very thankful to all those developers who are working for POCO F1 or any other device because personally I know how hard it is to make something work unofficially on a device.
Now what I personally expect from the custom roms are the three thing :-
1. Touch response as good as the official stock vendor rom ( if the response is better than that it's auspicious ).
2. Performance as good " " " " " " " " " same.
3. Battery life as good " " " " " " " " " " same.

I went for Custom Rom because MIUI is not Stock Android Experience and Custom Roms (like HAVOC and Crdroid) has whole deeper level of customization and tweaks !
-from resizing rearranging navigation bar to
- QS panel Icon size & arrangment to shortcuts to
- status bar icons , type and arrangment to pie bars and
- gestures!
not to mention you can change fonts and thicknes on every level!
for me custom rom are enrich your User Interface!

and yes ofcourse I am on Havoc and lagging, hanging of system ui are unknown to me! Ram management is good! but yes whatsapp do hangs but its mainly because my whatsapp data is 10.1gb :D

I think these QS tiles must be included : sync, location, volume, reboot(system, recovery, bootloader), screenshots, screen recorder, etc.

And ability to restrict per-app data/wifi usage.

1. simplicity. no gapps, no gdialer etc.. pure aosp with aosp dialer,messages and another few aps ( cam, gallery, files, calculator )
2. statusbar padding icons FIXED ! still no dev has provided yet a perfect statusbar visual experience. when you go from lockscreen to homescreen, the statusbar items shift inwards and mostly are not properly alligned.
3. brightness slider on the bottom of qs tiles area, today we have large phones and moving your finger all the way up is a pain in the ass. do you hear this, Lineage team ?
4. simple and decent default launcher, being able to support icon packs and to show original app icons ( a lot of these default icons will place your original squared icon into a circle )
5. haven't seen this in any rom, but i would like, when making and receive calls to be on 2g, else 3g/4g
6. under the hood optimizations man ! under the hood !
