this one by sld by a "mall" right.
so means we can return within 15 days upon receipt.

I ordered a 64gb at mn sale (coz 128 oos)
then just now 12pm I ordered the 128gb.
so i'm just gonna return the 64gb since can't cancel.

Not gonna be easy to return for mall order. It will drag on & on for weeks even months only to be rejected for "change of mind"

completely reasonable to camp for this imo. its easy to check out in time as long as you are decently fast, unlike the $50 off min spend $0 for first 50 people.

its also reasonable to wait and deal hunt esp if hooting this phone just to play play.

Correct me if I'm wrong. Seems like this isn't as hot / popular as the F1 pocophone sales back then right?

I remember I couldn't even get 1 after I log in. Its sold out within mins.

But this one I still see many many sets.

f1 is a flag ship processor with a mid range price
x3 is a mid range processor with a budget range price there is a clear difference in demographics

So generally speaking, not necessary phone geeks will go for the x3 since its just mid tier like redmi note 9 series ah?

Ya I actually felt this x3 not for me leh.

So far any phone with a main cam with ois, And an ultra wide that can take good Low light (can be 48 4-in-one pixel binning or good F range). A 2or 3 x zoom for 50mm pov portrait. Whatever the 4 camera is ok whether is a 2mp depth or 5 mp macro also can or even don’t have also can.

And a higher than mid range chipset can Liao no beee 865. Ie 855, 855+, 860, dimensity 820 or dimensity 1000+.

UFS or ram type not important

4000 battery and above good enough.

No need fast charge.

Screen can be lcd or amoled 120hz

Got or not ah ?

the usp of the f1 is diff i guess. its cpu high end with compromises in everything else.

the value proposition of the x3 is a budget phone with features of a mid to upper tier phone (e.g. 120hz refresh with 240hz touch sampling, stereo speakers, nfc, decent lenses (only 2)) while retaining the essentials like sd card support, IR blaster and headphone jack.

f1 is a mid range phone that equip with high end soc sd845, just the soc alone...is worth the price tag. the very first phone change the way people think about flagship phone.

x3 is a mid range phone that equip with the first debut 732g...the fastest in the mid range as of now. the selling points are their features e.g nfc stereo speakers 120Hz etc....

i doubt redmi note 10 able to give what we want with sd 765g for within this price tag.

not to mention..now is early bird discounts+freebie+sponsored voucher.

Poco announced the X3 NFC smartphone on Monday, and just a day later it went on sale. The phone's aggressive price considering its a Snapdragon 732G chipset, big battery with fast charging and unique design made fans rush to order it with 10,000 units gone in the first 30 minutes.The phone can also be found at Xiaomi’s own store, selected regional Amazon websites, Banggood, Gearbest, the Dutch platform Belsimpel, and the leading online platform in Southeast Asia - Shopee. It's unclear how many units went through those, but one imagines the demand was high there too.

The phone was launched at €229 or €269 for its 64GB and 128GB, respectively. However, between September 8 and September 11 the Poco X3 NFC is even cheaper - the early bird prices are €199 and €249.

I think it's best bang for buck phone for price range from 250 to 400 a third of a flagship price, high end processor real world usage difference is only for flexing for a few months before a new processor comes out, and mainly can be only be noticed when gaming
or live streaming or if you video edit on your phone which noone normally does so most of the time it's underutilized
tldr you dont need a 1k phone just to watch youtube and surf facebook if you are an advance user its a different story

yessir, on launch i got my poco f1 6/64 for 384, and the poco x3 128 for 289. i think thats already a really good deal.

i come to realise that i honestly cant tell a difference between a high end soc and a mid range one since i legit just use reddit, facebook, chrome and youtube on my phone.

had the oneplus 2, axon 7/oneplus 3t, v30+, poco f1, s10+ (sd variant), realme x2 pro, k30 pro and past a certain point, i believe it was the 820, i couldnt really tell a difference in perf for my use case. the only thing that mattered to me was the reduction in transistor sizes and the battery savings as a result.

This phone also 6.67". Any xiaomi phone with 6" screen with mid range processor? Seems like all the new release is > 6.5". Redmi series a bit too slow.

My mi mix 2s battery almost dying. Haven't found the new replacement yet.

I'm happy as long as

no/minimal lag
good battery life
decent screen/camera
128GB cause housekeeping is a biatch

Same usage patterns, just check mail, listen to music during travels, watch some Youtube, Inoreader see subscribed news, browse web/reddit. Not computing cancer cure with my phone so no need the highest end processor. Not professional photographer either.

ya bro, i legit dk what people doing that need all the crazy SoCs. can argue futureproofing but by that time battery dead and SoC outdated alr. my phone camera also same, used for mainly taking pics of lecture slides, notes on foolscap paper (poly student) and just random shots for whatsapp and carousell.

need horsepower invest the money into a desktop better, can do folding@home better also :p
