Weekly poll: what do you think of the Poco M3?

29 November 2020
The phone is surprisingly capable for a sub-€200 phone, sub-€150 even, if you got one with the Black Friday discount.

    I feel like Xiaomi has released this phone over 10 times since 2019. 6.5 - 6.7" IPS LCD, side mounted fingerprint sensor, decent camera, wide angle, macro, depth sensor $200 - $300.

      A modern phone with a decent battery. Who cares about flagships if they die on you in the middle of a trip

          Am more intrigued by how they did the giant camera bump with the brand sneaking onto it. I could see that being a 2021 trend, whether we like it or not. Means the brand will be visible even with a case on.

            Better buy Redmi 9

              I think a lot of people are commenting from economies that this phone isn't seriously targeting, which is fine, but where this phone will be sold, another 50 bucks or so for an X3 for example may be a difference of a weeks wages, and that 6k MaH battery would come in useful if access to electrical infrastructure was a bit challenging.

              I am glad that better features are trickling down to the budget sector, even if it sometimes takes a while.

              Also, I suspect that we are now at a point where producing 1080p or 720p screens probably costs more or less the same anyway.

                Pay for junk you get junk I always say.

                  No option to select. Yes, it really great value for the price. But it doesn't mean I'm going to buy it.

                    One thing I've learned from this comment section:

                    No matter how good value a phone is, people would always find reasons to complain.

                    Here's my advice:

                    If you don't like any thing from Xiaomi, then don't buy it. You don't deserve to enjoy their products. Go, find another brand and buy their phones, you deserve it for having such a complaining attitude.

                        None of the poll options are ones I'd choose.

                        You guys make some of the worst polls on the internet. No joke.

                            Generally speaking though, yes I agree with you.

                                    Great as a second phone.

                                      No NFC so it's a big no from me. It's 2020, all phones should have NFC. No exceptions

                                        No, i only buy flagships.
                                        No, there are other brands i prefer.
                                        No, camera matters.
                                        Etc.
