F3 if not that old. I'm typing this on a redmi 4x from 2017 and even this one is not that old and will probably be good enough for basic tasks for a couple of years.
Redmi Mi and Poco are brands from xiaomi. While the old models are very reliable, the new ones (11+) aren't (moderboard issues, side mounted fingerprint, modem, etc).

I've been using an F3 since mid 2021, and it's still working well. I don't see a compelling reason to upgrade yet.
Just received the HyperOS (on Android 13) OTA update this afternoon which was a nice surprise.

Oh I thought the company said poco f3 won't be getting hyper OS. Should I relock my bootloader ?/is it worth it ?

I'd wait until the dust settles. I'm only seeing a few cosmetic changes so far.
