The Poco F1 was received with praise due to the number of high-end specifications at a very low price. The handset basically redefined the old “Flagship Killer” and is selling like hotcakes. When a device comes with great specifications and a good value for money, people take notice, and developers too. While the Poco F1 is perfect in specs, not everyone loves MIUI. Thankfully some developers have already stepped and the first custom ROMs for the smartphone are popping out. If you dream with a “Pixel Experience” on Poco F1, now you can.
The Pixel Experience is a popular ROM among most of Android smartphones with an active development community. It basically brings all the features of a Pixel to several smartphones, you’ll get the same Pixel Launcher, same wallpapers, ringtones, and the very same applications that are available in Google Pixel handsets.
