As it's name implies this phone is very fast,thanks to it's snapdragon 845 processor,and scoring over 250,000 on antutu benchmark,this is the cheapest phone that you can buy with this CPU right now,but cheap does not mean bad,this phone is very capable.

Specs and price :
The Poco F1 will be available in three memory-storage combinations: 6GB/64GB, 8GB/128GB, and 8GB/256GB. All three versions feature the Snapdragon 845 processor which you can get for under 500 $.

8GB + 256GB - 415$/Rs 28,999
The special Armored edition is priced at:
8GB + 256GB -430$/ Rs 29,999.
For it's crazy price this phone can compete with the like of OnePlus 6 and beats the Galaxy S9 and Pixel 2 in terms of performance.
The battery is excellent too,The 4,000mAh unit should keep you up and running for a full day, potentially two, depending on how hard you push it and combined with Quick Charge 3,the Poco F1 can be charged from zero to 100 in 1hr 30 min which is very impressive.
Camera :
The Xiaomi Poco F1 features a dual camera setup. There is a primary 12-megapixel Sony IMX363 sensor, It is the same sensor that Xiaomi uses in smartphones like Mi 8 and Mi Mix 2s,and a 5-megapixel secondary depth sensor from Samsung.
The front 20-megapixel camera also has HDR and AI Beautify features, with an IR light that powers the Face Unlock feature.
The images shot with the Poco F1 are detailed and great for a phone of it's price.

Display:
The Poco F1 features a 6.1-inch IPS LCD display, featuring a resolution of 1080 x 2246 pixels,colors are nice but can't compare to an OLED display,but still great none the less.
Design and Build quality :
The Poco F1 is by far not the prettiest phone which is one of the compromises that Xiaomi had to take to lower it's price,there is also the infamous notch which i personally wouldn't mind considering what you get in other areas.
The Armored Edition comes with a back made of Kevlar fabric which feels extra sturdy.
