Xiaomi Poco F1 to soon receive dark mode in MIUI 11

Xiaomi’s one of the best phone ever made – Poco F1 will soon receive Android Q upgrade bringing dark mode and other additional features in MIUI 11. The news comes from Pocophone’s global head Alvin Tse, tweeting the confirmation of dark mode in response to a user’s query on Twitter.

The Poco F1 packs an AI-powered dual camera consisting of a 12MP Sony IMX363 primary sensor with dual pixel auto-focus. There is a 20MP sensor with Super Pixel technology at the front. The Super Pixel technology combines four adjacent pixels into one large 1.8μm pixel for clearer images with less noise.

The smartphone features a 6.18-inch IPS LCD display and runs on MIUI 10 based on Android 9 Pie OS. The device is fuelled by a 4,000mAh battery that supports 18W fast charging.

Xiaomi is also working on a new Poco F2 smartphone that was spotted on benchmarking platform – Geekbench—with Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor and 4GB of RAM.  The smartphone is expected to come with the upcoming Android Q OS which has been released recently by Google for developers and Beta users.

According to the Geekbench, the Xiaomi Poco F2 scored 1776 points in a single-core test. The smartphone recorded 6097 points in multi-score test. The recent benchmarking scores of devices having Snapdragon 855 have totalled over 3,000 points in the single-core tests and approx. 10,000 in the multi-core tests. Thus, the scores of Poco F2 are quite low as compared to other Snapdragon 855 powered phones. The low score might also be due to 4GB RAM in Poco F1 as compared to devices that now pack up to 8GB of RAM.
