Saw on Shopee current price is $179 now.

Any better deal?

Got to wait for 12.12 then Xmas for deals. $134/154 are good deal for this poor reviews but capable phone.
Hearing some of the users saying that after update cannot boot up, I think I'll avoid this

I tot u got X3P already during 11.11?
Initially was deciding between X3P & M3 for my fam memb, but heard of this issue that requires change of main board by svc ctr so rather spend more on X3P.

Assuming 14TB wd elements was about $230 on black friday, and I upload 140GB a day, need about 100 days to break even

Good enough for my P6 kid?
Trying not to spend too much.
M3 can drive Pubg, CoD, which means it can handle 99% of games and 99.9% of productivity app. Switching between apps, opening app is a split second slower (vs high end SoC), other than that it's a capable phone with big screen and 6Ah battery.
Have not faced Dead boot issue, so far.

Xiaomi Service Centre replaced the motherboard on my unit, so far all is still well.

Got the 12.5.5 Enhanced update 2 days back, installed it and it's now on Android 11, performance wise still the same as before.
