We subjected our test device to thirty GFXBench battery benchmarks on a loop to determine how the SoC managed under sustained load. Samsung also used the same technology on their recent Galaxy Note 9. The Lumia 950 XL debuted this form of passive cooling in 2015 with its copper heat pipe. Xiaomi advertises the Pocophone as having LiquidCool technology, but this is nothing new. Surface temperatures rise to a maximum of just 35.1 ☌ (~95.2 ☏) under sustained load too, which is barely lukewarm. Our test device reaches a maximum of 31 ☌ (87.8 ☏) at idle on one area of the display, but most of the device remains below 30 ☌ (86 ☏). The Pocophone has comparatively low surface temperatures even under sustained load.

Additionally, we have pitted our test device against other ambitious mid-range smartphones like the Nokia 7 Plus and even flagship devices like the Samsung Galaxy S9+, the Apple iPhone XS, the Huawei P20 Pro and the LG G7 ThinQ. Hence, we have chosen to compare the Pocophone against the Honor 10 and the OnePlus 6. Xiaomi has Honor and OnePlus in their sights with the Pocophone as its specifications suggest.
Moreover, the Pocophone has expandable storage, dual rear-facing cameras and a 4,000-mAh battery. There is a 128 GB variant too, which costs an additional €40 (~$46). The Pocophone has a large 6.18-inch IPS display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC, 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB of UFS 2.1 storage. Its Pocophone F1 costs €349 (~$403), but still packs in some high-end hardware. There are exceptions to this, like the €399 (~$461) Honor 10 or the €519 (~$599) OnePlus 6, but Xiaomi has gone one better. Current flagship smartphones from renowned manufacturers usually cost at least €700 (~$808), while even budget smartphones are starting to increase in price too.
