POCO F1 vs ZenFone 5Z vs OnePlus 6: POCO recently launched the F1 mobile in India and it has taken the smartphone market by a storm. There are a lot of features that the company is offering on their phone which competes with the flagships of other companies at almost half the price. Originally, OnePlus was considered to be the flagship killer, but the F1 has proven to be the killer of the flagship killer itself. When we think about the cheapest phones that offer Snapdragon 845 chipset, usually the OnePlus 6 and the ASUS Zenfone 5Z come to the mind. This scenario will now change with the F1 being the cheapest of the three.

Processor & Display
All the phones feature Snapdragon 845 on board, clocked up to 2.8GHz. The OnePlus 6 and the Zenfone 5Z both have OLED and Super IPS+ panels, respectively, while the POCO F1 compromises on this issue with an IPS LCD Panel. The Zenfone has a 6.2-inch panel, while the POCO F1 sports a 6.18-inch panel and the OnePlus 6 has a 6.28-inch panel. All the three phones have a Full HD+ resolution with a standard notch at the top, which has become a common view on flagships these days. The notch on the OnePlus 6 is the smallest of the three.
Temperature Control
The POCO F1 is far superior to the other two when it comes down to cooling the phone. It has a liquid cooling technology, which is seen on the Samsung S9 too. However, both the ASUS Zenfone 5Z and the OnePlus 6 have no such technology.
The POCO F1 has a 4000mAh battery with support for fast charging. The OnePlus 6 has a lower battery capacity of 3300mAh with dash charging, although the OLED panel might give it an edge over the LCD panels. The Zenfone 5Z, on the other end of the spectrum, also has the smaller battery with 3300mAh of total capacity.
