I mean seriously, if you are not able to afford pixel smartphone, then buy a phone with high tier processor and install a Pixel ROM, to transform your phone in to Google Pixel like device.

Personally, I detest using Pocophone F1 with MIUI as a daily driver. When, I First bought my Pocophone f1, Instantly I started tinkering with custom ROMS and this is the first custom rom which I came across. From then, I am very much fancied about custom ROMS.

Features

By Default, you will get a Pixel 3 launcher which is absolutely super fast. From App Launching to multitasking, everything is snappier. I personally very much fancied about the app transitions which are super refined in android pie. When it comes to advanced features this is where pixel rom flunks a little bit. I mean, if you compare it with resurrection remix, havoc os , nitrogen OS  it is sort of murky.

Of course, dark theme is available inside settings under display. Previously this feature was broken and its not working as intended and finally with the latest stable release we got to see dark theme working through out the system without any issues.
