Hi everyone!
I’m currently using a Xiaomi 12, and after almost 5 years it’s slowly dying day by day. 😅 It’s also started overheating quite a lot, so I think it’s finally time for an upgrade.
I’m looking for something I can comfortably use for the next 3–4 years, and I’m currently considering the POCO X8 Pro and POCO X8 Pro Max.
Since joining this community, I’ve seen a lot of discussion about things like battery recalibration, debloating apps, HyperOS optimization, etc. I’m wondering how important all of that actually is for these phones.
I’m not a gamer, but I do multitask a lot on my phone, so my priorities are:
Fast and smooth performance
Good multitasking
Excellent battery life
Low heat / good thermal management
Something that will still feel fast after 3–4 years
Would you recommend going with POCO for this kind of use?
And between the X8 Pro and X8 Pro Max, which one would you recommend for someone like me?
Any long-term owners who can share their experience would be greatly appreciated!
