I watched all the above video reviews along with many others and finally decided on the poco x3 gt to replace my Huawei p20 pro. It ticked all the boxes, like camera, weight, screen, specs, having 7 5G bands, and gorilla glass victus. I am particularly fond of the plastic back, having had to replace several glass backs, which is an unnecessary expense.

The phone is so good, I bought another to replace my wife's mi 9t pro just last week. I am very impressed, the only downside is no memory card slot, and no 3.5 inch audio jack, but it did come with a converter and 256gb space, so it's not too much of a compromise.

A big thank you to GSM arena for such valuable information, you guys rock.

    Bought A52 5G, now I'm thinking of getting a second one for my wife (maybe A52s, if I can find 256gb variant... do they make these? I couldn't find one). I wanted A72 5G but there isn't one. No A72s either. No A82 as well (not in EU, at least).

        Best mid range Smart phone in 2021

        Stable and smooth OS
        Great Main camera almost flagship level , medium performance from other sensors
        Great battery live
        Great screen
        Insane charging speed.

        The only downside is no IP rating and usb 2.0

          Is the Sony Xperia 1 iii among the top 10 or not? It's listed in the ranked phones but not mentioned in the article.

                    One thing that I found a real shame about the Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G was that Samsung couldn't be bothered about giving a USB-C 3.1 port with Samsung DeX capability. With Snapdragon 778G chipset, that could easily be a worthy spiritual successor to the LG Velvet 5G. Even Sony can give a USB-C 3.1 port with HDMI ALT video output support on their Xperia 10 Mk3 midrange phone.

                        I'll choose the Sony Xperia I III and throw the rest to the garbage.
                        NO SD CARD slot = NO BUY! 👎👎👎

                          Bought A52. Pretty good.

                            If only there was a chart of top commented reviews, Sony is dominating there >_<
                            *enjoying my Xperia 5 III, will add an opinion on it soon.

                              xiaomi dominated again, anyway i know this traffic maybe most from India like nord 2 and some xiaomi phone that is very popular there.

                                I agree that Xiaomi 11T pro cut features like OIS, IP68, telephoto and the just 8mp ultrawide was kind of disappointing, especially considering that it predecessor had OIS.

                                The fact that Xiaomi cut features from the predecessor annoys me. I mean if you are gonna call it successor it wil be better in every way.
