I've been using this one for 4 and a half years now and honestly it's still going great. Haven't needed to service it even once and I'm stoked about that. I Probably need to get a new battery but 6000mAh is absolutely monstrous. Even after generalized depredation from heavy usage,it still gives me all day battery. 80% battery health of this phone is still equal to many flagship smartphone's battery capacity(5000mAh). Obviously this statement is an exaggeration but i like the phone a lot. It had decent performance when it was new but the Snapdragon 662 is pretty old now and can't keep up in heavy tasks. Luckily I don't do those things(Editing/Gaming) on my phone so it's still useable. Ram is constrainted a bit for the 4GB version but i can make do. The cameras are not bad but then again, I don't take much pictures except for a ton of documents/assignments/notes, so 64GB of storage is manageable. Is it a perfectly good phone depending on use case? 100%. Would i recommend this to anyone in 2025? Nope. Unless it's refurbished for 50 bucks, then why not lol.

    Horrible phone. After 3-4 dead booth issue it has completely died. Motherboard is giving critical error in ram memory. The only choice to replace whole board which does not make any sense

              I have this phone for 3 yrs now and i have had deadboot issues and issues with the battery. The camera isnt good and it started glitching after a year.
              Good if not used very often, games are not prefered cause it heats up fast.

                  Bought this phone in 2021 and had to face to the deadboot issue more than 10 times. Most disgusting phone ever. Because of this annoying issue had to buy a new phone too

                        My xiaomi Poco M3 has buy on 12/04/2021 upto now there were no any system issues I found yet, only thing from my mistake, unfortunately my phone Display has damaged, when it felt down. But I replaced a new display (as I know it is an original), Today I upgraded the MiUi version 14(Upgraded to Android 12) still I haven't found any software errors. Will see in the future.

                                  Stopped working. After several hard resets and it keeps happening, I have to capitulate. Only after 2 years of use. Just outside warranty.

                                  In short, I had a bad experience with this phone, to say the least.
