Poco X3 is officially arriving on September 7
Qualcomm and Poco announced the new X3 phone will be the first with Snapdragon 732G chipset, and now we know exactly when it's coming - September 7 at 12 noon UTC. The brand confirmed the date on its social media pages and revealed it will be an online launch event.

Looking at our database, the CPU results are unsurprisingly similar to the Snapdragon 720G and Snapdragon 730G, however, the difference between the chips should mostly boil down to the GPU - something Geekbench is not measuring.
