The $256 is promotion during 11.11 and 12.11

I got share the deal here and how to get it. I tink better wait for 12.12 for such deal again. For now the price is not attractive at all

Would Poco F1 be a better option for speed since it uses a Snapdragon 845 chip instead?

Ya, probably just wait it out. Only thing is my 64GB F1 can't afford to install anymore apps... :'(

Same here too. Hopefully x3 will have the same performance as f1. My F1 battery deterioration is quite bad after installing miui 12

From quite a handful of benchmarks out there, the 8XX series chip still outperforms the 7XX chip. Don't expect much I guess.

The X3 comes with a factory sp but seems to be not very smooth. If we want to apply our own sp, do we need to peel off the factory sp? Or just stick on top?

Definitely need to peel off. The factory SP is not very usable, scratches easily..

Yeahh same. Battery only last about half a day for me now but i guess its normal after 2 years. Haha but now whenever battery spoil, can just change new phone since its so cheap. I will post my review after i receive my phone, but i guess u can wait for black Friday sale or 12/12 for better deals, now cheapest is like 300. Maybe during 12/12 there might be another $256 for 128gb.

Right. After two years, that is to be expected. Batteries wear over time and wear out quicker with more frequent “full” charge cycles.

If it’s cheaper, replace the battery instead since the 8XX chip still outperforms 7XX.

How much does it cost to replace battery for F1?

Ordered a 128Gb version from the Qoo10 HK seller on Nov 8. Till today, the status still showing "awaiting shipment", after 9 days ... So unreliable ...

I ordered a phone cover from another supplier on Shopee on Nov 11 (the day 11.11 itself), 3 days after I ordered the phone. Today it has arrived already!!!

I can understand some delay due to 11.11, etc but that's not a good reason for this mega delay ...

Conclusion: unreliable seller ... Buyers at risk ...

Usually it is around $30 +/-, depends on the availability of the specific battery, which in turn depends on the popularity of the phone model ...

You can ask around to get a quotation.

Alternatively some bros here have DIY replaced batteries themselves with batteries and tools ordered from Aliexpress, etc. which costs around S$15 +/- ...
