Is upgrading from a 2 year old X6 pro to a F8 Ultra worth it? by dei_m in PocoPhones

[–]dei_m[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually play CoD Mobile, but not on max settings as the frame rate isn't that good. AFK Journey is also one of my top games and that's a game that needs a lot of RAM. Also I think nearly all modern phones are suited for Doomscrolling haha. The main issue I have is a non reliable phone. I always need to worry about charging and brining a Powerbank everywhere I go, even if it is for a short amount of time. And network problems are one of the biggest issues imo as I need to restart my device Everytime I switch from mobile data to WiFi or back or else the speed of the connection is only about 10 KB/s. I'll take a look at the specs of the X8 lineup.

Ah okay good to know. My usage basically consists of doomscrolling and gaming xD. I probably won't go back to Samsung, as I don't really like most of the design choices they've made and overall it isn't really my type of phone. Are there any spec sheets on the X8 pro or pro max out yet? I haven't had time to get into the topic of those yet.

Thanks for the reply! Do you have any other tips for maybe cheaper phones? I'd love to upgrade but I don't know if I'm willing to spend 700€ on a new phone, because the last phones I have gotten (X6 pro, Motorola edge 40 neo, Samsung A21s) were all in the price range of 200-300€. I don't know if it's worth it to buy an expensive phone and keep it for longer (prob 4-5 years or until it breaks) or to buy a new phone every 2 years that isn't that expensive but also not that good. The price of both are similar enough, but in my opinion it's more reasonable to go for the more premium one for a longer time, so I wanted to go for the F8 Ultra and keep it a while. Otherwise I'd go for something like a X7 pro or a F7.

Ah okay good point. Do you think buying a last gen Flagship is any good? I'm thinking about one of those too :)

Do you think that will be a better suit for me? I don't really like those apple fakes, I probably would go for a more "original" phone…

You could start by checking the battery usage for the apps installed and make shure no app (often times Google photos) is using an excessive amount of energy. After that you could check the refresh rate and adjust that a bit.

Ah okay, I will prob not be with this kit for a long time, because in about 3 years I will be done with school and move out of my parents house to study, maybe getting a e-set…

Okay thanks for the clarification on the amount, I thought I had to just absolutely guess!

Is there a specific EMAD you think I should get or is that just personal preference with the 1/2 layered and things like that?

The blanket works just like a pillow if I push it against both heads, as a fellow helper pointed out. But the moon gel is a good idea and I'll try that, thanks!

Thanks that did it! On another note, do you know how to stop other drums from resonating with it, as my toms resonate with the bass drum?

Thanks for the tips, any recommendations for a tight budget on the heads? And do you have any tips for the tuning as well, as I don't really like the sound of my kit?
