On bright sunny days it seems to receive a small ‘turbo boost’ outdoors, but not nearly as much as flagship-level power. It’s amazing that the Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro features a fingerprint scanner. To our best knowledge, it has not failed to recognize one time during testing. Xiaomi utilized rear glass for 2020’s Poco X2 but the Poco X3 NFC and this phone are largely made of plastic. The screen protector and the topmost protective layer of the camera lens are all made from glass. These prices indicate that this phone is slightly less expensive than the Poco X3 NFC.
- The phone comes with a factory-applied film screen protector.
- But, after the season we face some lag issues and frame drop also.
- Anywhere from 25GB-100GB will result in very noticeably increased build speeds
- There is a very minor color cast at lower brightness levels, but it’s hard to notice unless you’re in a very dark room.
The native Auto profile adjusts colors based on ambient lighting. It felt a tad too warm but we could easily fix it by choosing a cooler white point using the color temperature wheel.
Yet you can see the display on POCO X3 Pro at max brightness while outdoors. As this one comes with a big camera bump, the phone wobbles a lot when tapped on the upper-half portion of the screen from the sides. Though the wobbling is not there when tapped from the lower end of the phone. The depth sensor does its job well with the right subject and background separation in portrait mode. The 2 MP macro shooter is disappointing – for obvious reasons.
- Not to mention the elevated asking price of your monthly mobile subscription.
- Xiaomi POCO X3 NFC (surya) Global official ROM, include stable, weekly and beta MIUI firmware which can be updated with Recovery and Fastboot (need mi flash tool).
- Follow the How-to Flash Guide as provided on the XIAOMI POCOPHONE X3 PRO stock rom page to Flash your XIAOMI device.
- The Redmi Note 10 Pro Max doesn’t measure up to the POCO X3 Pro in terms of gaming, but if you want a higher-quality display and camera that takes standout photos, it is the ideal pick.
- Upon investigating it with the ‘CPU Throttling Test’ app, it turns out not all phones with ‘liquid-cooling’ are made equal.
- The Poco X3 Pro USB Driver is 100% free since the Poco community officially releases it for Poco Mobile users.
This makes it quite a bit faster and makes it the second-fastest processor for Android phones. Since I have tested both the Redmi K40 and Poco X3, I can safely say that the Poco F3 will have a significantly better display. The AMOLED on the Poco F3 screen will be brighter, more vivid, and faster. Don’t get me wrong, Poco X3 Pro’s display is also great but only for the price, while the Poco F3 display will take the fight to much costlier phones.
It’s just that there is a far more compelling option in the recent Poco lineup. I wouldn’t call the 33W charging super fast, but it tops up the large 5,120mAh internal battery in less than a couple of hours from under stock ROMs 10%. That is a win-win for me as someone who doesn’t want to charge a device every single day wherever possible. Having reviewed a ton of Xiaomi devices in recent months, MIUI 12 has still not grown on me enough to be my first choice of Android skin. That said, the wealth of features is a major draw for those wanting to tweak, tinker, or just toy with their smartphone. We’ve seen a whole raft of affordable Xiaomi devices bombarding the market over the past couple of months.
