📦 “Unreadable. Unforgettable.” -- My POCO F1’s Death Was More Than Just a Hardware Failure

I bought it second-hand in May 2021. 8GB RAM. 256GB storage. My daily driver, but also my vault.
Rooted, TWRP installed, no bloat. I kept it offline by design - no Google Photos, no Mi C...

I was reeeeeally pleasantly surprised to see that the Haptics were 100% on par with iPhones!! It was amazing, I was like that's it, the android eco system finally did it!
