Same price: POCO X8 Pro (12/512) vs POCO F7 (12/512). Which one for pure daily smoothness (not camera/gaming)?

ve got a specific dilemma and I'm hoping for some real-world advice. I'm looking at both the POCO X8 Pro 12/512 and the POCO F7 12/512, and right now they're available to me for the exact same price.

My use case:

• Gaming: Very occasional / casual only (maybe some Slay the Spire or light stuff, not Genshin Impact on max settings).
• Camera: Honestly, I rarely take photos.
• Priority: Fluidity. I just want the phone that feels snappier and more pleasant to use daily (scrolling social media, Reddit, browsing, multitasking). No stutters, no overheating while doing nothing.
