I'm planning on upgrading from my mido soon, and I'd like to know if these ghost touches from Poco can be fixed via software update, if not then I'll get the note 7 pro instead.
I dont have any touch issues after flashing the latest vendor, although i would suggest you to wait a bit more for the k20 pro
just get the 7 pro if you can.

Quite depends, if you want to give Android a try without any experience with MIUI before, I would say Pocophone is a safe start. It has been around for a while and it has lots of support right now. With pocophone you can try both MIUI and Pure Android (Lineage roms) to see which one you prefer.
The opinion can be based on long term review, future prospects of update, general quality of the phone etc. Please help as on paper Realme 3 Pro seems better than Redmi Note 7 Pro.

Do you want to purchase it just because it's under ₹10k now?
I have a Redmi Note 7 Pro and I had a Realme 5 Pro for a few days. I can assure you, the Redmi is superior to the Realme in every way, and I'm talking about the 5 Pro. I don't see how the 3 Pro could even compare to a premium phone like the Redmi 7 Pro. The 3 Pro has a micro USB port, for starters.

I have realme 5 pro and realme 3 pro. 5 pro has issues like UI lag, bad camera, bad battery backup. I found realme 3 pro better and it is my daily driver right now. I cannot say about redmi but realme 3 pro is still running smooth even with the with latest update.
If you wish to utilize phone's full potential you can root it install custom ROMS and kernels.

Yes.

If you had asked me this one year ago i would have recommended POCO F1 without any thought. But it has now become quite old considering every month a new phone is launched. The major advantage over M2 pro is its SoC. Performance is greater than my needs ,SDM845 still holds up and there is a lot of development support for POCO F1. As for the camera, having a 48mp sensor is no good when the software is so ****ty. It can't take the full advantage. I can capture better pictures with a GCam on F1's 12mp camera. POCO F1 has enough battery that will get you through the day. But don't expect it to last upto 2 day. M2 pro has bigger battery, better fast charging, fine chipset and will be getting major android updates in the future. So it really comes down to what you want to do with your phone. If you want fast phone with ok camera and ok battery go for POCO F1. As for the software it still has a lot of development potential.
Cons for POCO F1
Getting old.
Notch sometimes bothers me.
There are chances of getting screen issues 'cause lot of users have complained about it.
poco F1.
Notch isnt really a problem for me.
m2 pro is just a rebranded redmi note 9 pro in my place.
cons, back design is bland af

Bland af ?
Depends on what you are looking for and your budget. If you can spend a bit more go for the F2 Pro.
If you are only looking at the M2 and F1 then go for the M2, sure the chip isn't as powerful as the F1, but the 720G is sufficient and it can play games (though not on the highest settings), but for sure it will still be supported updates wise since Poco basically declared that the MIUI12 update will be the last and we'd have to rely on enthusiastic devs for 3rd party ROMS. If you don't mind flashing and if you don't use the cameras that much anyway then the F1 may be for you. But like I said if you have a bigger budget go for the F2 Pro, Nord, or even a OnePlus 7 (if you can get it for a good price) family, or even the mi 10 lite
Poco UI will be like a MIUI based OS for Poco devices like what Joy UI is for Black Shark devices.
Poco will be releasing the Poco UI for Poco devices at the end of 2021:

I've asked on Xiaomi.EU forum on the possibility of support for Poco UI and it seems like they will likely not support Poco UI in the future.
Poco devices that do not have Chinese equivalent devices, affected by this change to Poco UI and will NOT receive Xiaomi.EU roms in 2022 and beyond: Poco X3, Poco X3 Pro and Poco M3.
Devices affected by this change, but will still receive Xiaomi.EU rom support in the future since these devices are based on Chinese Redmi devices: Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K20 Pro in China) and Poco F3 (Redmi K40 in China).
The Poco F1 will not be affected by this change since the device is EOL for firmware updates.
Can't say for sure if that's a blessing or a curse. Since A11 update and this phone is getting a downgrade, maybe with Poco UI they will focus on fixing the system issues and actually give this phone a proper software, cause so far till now no custom roms, eu ports or even stock miui got anything good to offer as a daily driver
They all got 2 options: long living turtle, or the burning hot easily tired Rabbit
