Those currently using this phone. The battery life good a not. Think of getting it. My Samsung galaxy M51 battery worsen after the update in 9 Dec 2020.
What sort of comparison would you like for "good"?

It is good enough for my uses that can last at least 1.5 to 2 days, if that is what you would like to know. But it really depends on what "you" do with it.

My Redmi 10X is smaller battery with Helios chip and even my phone battery remaining is 62% for full day usage, which is nice according to me. M3 has bigger battery and more efficient chip, so should last even longer.

Gotten an M3 for my son. Delivered yesterday. Here's my quick first impression.

Am surprise the build is solid. Didn't expect it to be so well build for a hundred dollar device. Dual speakers are good. Standby battery life is phenomenon. Charged to 100% last night and this morning after 8hrs still 100%. GPS lock-on acceptable timing, accuracy achieved at 4m. Wifi speed maxed out my home router. Bluetooth connectivity stable with no drop-out or intermittent disruption within 3m radius. Didn't try any further distance. Fingerprint unlock speed acceptable for this pricing. Face unlock is faster and instantaneous.

Now here's what I felt are the weaknesses of this device.
To me, the most glaring problem is the screen brightness. Under brightest setting with auto brightness disabled, viewing it indoor is rather dim to my eyes, not to mention outdoor which is worst. Fortunately to my son he is fine with that. Must be sign of old age eyes degradation for me. Lack of NFC I am sure many here already aware. But since my son don't use that it is not a problem as we were aware prior to purchase. Photos from both back and front cameras are not sharp, but for this price cannot complain.

And talking about price, the final amount paid after stacking voucher, cashback promo, qpoints and CC own cashback comes out to $137.23
At this price it is no doubt a damn good deal, seriously all the mentioned weaknesses can be overlook. :s13:
