seems so

did a check on gsmarena also, the specs look same
- number of megapixels
- lens aperture
- sensor size
- pixel size
- PDAF, OIS

Think I read somewhere it mention they using different a sensor albeit it retain all the other cam aspects ie. mp, ois, aperture etc

but i cant remember well alr so thats why ask for double conspermation

If really true they using same rear cam as F4

then I think they reserving the cam upgrade for F6

just like how they retain same CPU for F3/F4 in order to reserve upgrade for F5

Just got my F5 white (12GB) fr Gadgetaffair after seeing in shopee/lazada that they hv stocks.

Looks a little bigger than moi F1

Comes with a transparent cover, something which I didn't know & got an extra cover.

Wanted to get a tampered glass screen-protector but it won't fit (F5 screen curls at edges it seems..)
Shop guy was honest enough to admit it. & didn't charge me.

Feel comfortable with this shop to recommend to everyone else.

:oops::cool: compared to a friend Ip14 pro. Somehow opening Angrybirds SW, a photo edit app & a racing game...my F5 was faster. Next is to compare to another person's Pro Max..

This gadgetaffair sounds familiar

think they are one of the few reputable local hp shops around

if need bai fone urgently or bai from a physical shop, can consider bai from them

But are they the cheapest or they also follow "market rate" ?

their price consistently higher , only if buyer cannot wait for promo and avoid private sellers

example u see poco phones online promo day every month drop $100 for phones after a few months from release .... their retail price is always follow the "original" 549 449 ... even when phone release 1yr the online price drop significantly they still follow day 1 price

Wait, so f5 cannot use TG protector? Then you all use what or don’t use screen protector?

Dunno abt other TG stuff, but was advised to get a 'soft' screen protector instead.

You all can try, but make sure they stick it in front of you so can see result right away !

Anyway, spent $535 on this as dun want to waste time hunting ard. The $30 -$50 difference can earn back almost quickly.

All in all, is a good phone. Feel this can last another 5yrs like moi F1..

gadgetaffair definitely not cheapest. And personally bad experience with them as walk-in, back during F1, call n drop by, but ask for the phone, suddenly OOS, though I saw a huge bundle on the display shelves. And don't even to show me the phone, most probably due to I'm wearing shorts n slippers.

Oh last time u had a Poco F1? Wah din know Gadgetaffair got this type of thing happening but one thing to note... I think it also depends on your luck... see which employee attend to u cos if u notice on Carousell... they are not just one entity but got a few of them... got "Gadgetaffairwinnie"... "Gadgetaffairjoleen" etc etc so it seems like each of them may be working more for themselves and not just for the team as a whole... see which one is more dedicated to their job lor...
