I find the phone too small for my taste, will need to get used to it.. but smoothness is like butter.. I would say the touch responsiveness is better than my prev mi max 3..

I find the side mounted fingerprint sensor a little irritating though.. yes it is fast, but.. when u pick up the phone, 90% of the time u will accidentally trigger the sensor n u get a failed vibration..

The phone is bulkier than I expected, though needs some getting used to.. phone screen is longer too.. plus side is that I can now one hand type comfortably compare to my mi max 3..

The status bar is HUGE.. but thats because they trying to cover up for the camera hole.. if only they have an option to just let me have my slim status bar n sacrifice a bit of app real estate..

The supplied phone casing is good... But it doesn't "protect" the camera bump though. When I put phone facing up on table, the phone rests on the camera bump .

Actually it sort of does.. if u look at it carefully fr the side, u will notice that it is like 0.3mm higher than the camera bump..

Actually u can change the settings for the fingerprint sensor to work only upon "pressing" instead of "touching". That will eliminate the false trigger.

Yeah, but make it less convenient..

The stock screen protector is absolutely garbage.. the casing is very thick though.. quality wise just like any other tpu case, bad for sweaty oily palms n fingers..

anybody think the battery draining is an issue ? on standby mode it is like every hour consume 1% of the battery life. i was fully charged to 100% at night and morning wake up the battery level went down to like 88%. my the other phone oneplus 7 pro only see battery level at 98% in the morning given it has a smaller battery capacity than x3. for sure the oneplus 7 pro is not having a 1% drop for every hour on standby. normally i only full charge every alternate day. the oneplus 7 pro after 2 days when i need to full charge still have 30% to 40% + but this x3 for the same length of time, the battery level drops to 10%+. both phone always have battery saver mode on

Coming from samsung note 9, X3 vibration is much weaker as compared to my note9..
yep, but the x3's vibration is much more crisp and theres a different vibration for different interactions.
anyone upgraded to x3 from pocophone f1? is it worth it lol
would say yes for 4 main reasons:
- battery improvements (processor and capacity wise)
- no more notch
- speakers
- nfc

My vanced ok so far leh. But I logged in through microg settings not the main page

i tried installing it using shizuku and SAI, as i want to try avoiding disabling MIUI optimizations.

worked perfectly.:o

previously disabling MIUI optimizations caused some permissions issues.
got fed up and did a factory reset

Like don't work anymore liao leh. Keep getting the stupid minions McDonald's ad. Think something changed on YouTube side that Vanced can no longer block.

"According to Vanced, Google recently made changes to how ads are implemented on YouTube, which is why ads are showing up on YouTube Vanced. So far, the devs are still figuring out how to go around the new restrictions and when done, things should be back in place."

try downgrading to v14.
