Original story (published on November 26, 2020) follows:

The Poco F1, known outside Indian walls as the Pocophone F1, has reportedly sold more than 2.2 million units across the globe.

For a first release, no doubt the phone did perform well against the big boys, especially considering how competitive the smartphone market has become.

Having been close followers of the device’s software development, we can indeed confirm that the Poco F1 is still in the hands of many across the planet over two years down the line.

The demand for the latest MIUI 12 update has been one of the catalyst behind our rising readership. And the Poco F1 MIUI 12 update happened to be one of the most sought-after news here on PiunikaWeb.

And thanks to your unwavering support, we kept on digging for more MIUI 12-related stories on the Poco F1, up until the last minute when the final stable build was made available in mid-October.

This rollout came after a series of push and pull as the company struggled to fix bugs. But still, not even their prolonged efforts stopped even more bugs from sneaking under the radar and into the final MIUI 12 build.

As usual, our interest in the Poco F1 software development did not end with the release of the stable MIUI 12 update. We kept on following and aired the plight of users following the update.

Whether it’s recording slow-motion videos, overheating when recording 4K videos, rapid battery drains, laggy animations, issues with touch responsiveness, and what not, we have them all covered here.

However, not everyone is having a nightmare with the Poco F1 MIUI 12 update. There are plenty of rave reviews doing rounds with respect to this software, so yeah, there’s something to smile about.
