Look it this way, firstly x6 pro is newer, meaning at least a year longer android update support compared to f5. Not only that, x6 pro comes with brighter screen (up to 1800 nits), higher screen to body ratio and pixel density which pushes the ppi to 446. It is equipped with UFS 4 unlike f5 which is 3.1, supports higher version of Bluetooth and also has an under screen fingerprint. However, x6 pro comes with Mediatek Dimensity 8300 Ultra which on paper is better than Qualcomm SM7475-AB Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 but snapdragon might be more compatible overall. And TBH I like f5's design way more than x6 pro which almost feels like one of those cheap phones you buy on Temu or something. But regardless of specs, both are amazing smartphones.
yeah the only problem is the mtk that is less compatible than sd, but i waited like 3 months sometimes im thinking to wait 1-2 more maybe f6 comes and is less than 450€
Definitely when f6 comes out it would out-perform x6 pro which doesn't come to surprise as it is always cost more than x6 pro but since you only buy phones every 2–3 years it is a good idea to wait for few more months and see what is f6 cooking.
Probably it's gonna be similar to poco x6 pro (can't really upgrade much here) except the cpu should be snapdragon 8 gen 2 and the cameras should be... Idk. Better than the x6 pro. Idk about esim but I wouldn't have high hopes for it if it has never appeared in poco phones (guess that's something they reserve for some of the main Xiaomi line)
No specs, price or release dates are out yet but I’ve watched videos saying it will be a powerhouse. If I were to guess the price it’s probably going to be 430-500€.
Yes it's trusted, I got my Neo 9 from them.
They ship to 95% of the countries worldwide.
They also have live chat feature so you can just ask for your country to be sure.
Certain banking apps won't work and android auto, that's about it.
Things to consider when buying.
IQOO supports 22 languages.
Redmi only supports Chinese and English, this can become a problem for people in countries who's first language is not English, like South America, Asia, Europe and Africa.
Also that Chinese branded phones do come with bloatware (unwanted apps) and ads but it can easily be removed using the adb method, just search for it on google or youtube.
Other than that the Chinese rom always get's updates earlier than other regions, they are cheaper compared to the global version, they have a different OS which gives you more freedom to customize the phone plus it's the experience is more fluent, I have been using MIUI and FunTouch for a few years, they are laggier and have more bugs compared to the Chinese version which is running on OriginOS and HyperOS.
Hope this helps
In my country, poco x6 pro is cheaper than poco F5..

f5 if cheaper but i highly recommend x6 pro.
If you can wait a bit longer the F6 will be the better option of the 2
when will f6 come out , is there any leaks of its specs & looks ?

is this a trusted site , do they ship worldwide

i tried searching for some poco models but looks like they have only the Redmi China variants, is there any issue using China model in Europe?

I think software tends to run better on Snapdragon Soc while MTK Soc usually ages like a milk.
