              Acorns, 15 Jan 2024Go to additional settings and change region to Poland then ... moreBesides the Poco, it works with a Redmi Note 8 Pro stuck with Android 10 and MIUI 12 too. Many thanks for your help.

                Super honest review 3 years of use & still using..
                Bought 8/256 vayu global at the days of first release so it was unleashed beast in my hand.. well max temp i've recorded was 56°c , it was hell hot thought it may explode soon, As a hardcore gamer i brutally used it for pubg even while plugged in. Still play pubg as the time passed & updated to miui 14 the perfomance dropped alot, so used evox + ngk kernel played alot at 90fps the phone is still young super smooth even at highest temps. But battery is strange in winters really bad & in summer battery surprisingly is ok I am writing this from vayu & it won't die i did my best to kill it off but it cameout a worrier. & I forget to say for the first time updated to miui 14.0.3 version in 2023 i was listening a song well it froze & song stucked as grrrrr went black & restarted, i thought it's dead now but i came out breathing & never had a random restart or that scene again. It's 2024 now & still vayu is conqueror for me, not a liar not a poco fan just to say the screen quality is bad having small white dot soon also screen blinking at low brightness all it just have..

Went to repair shop and they said it's a common problem for this model. It comes from the supplier itself and they also told me I'm lucky I get to use it for 3 years because most of their customer come after only 1year use(after they finish the warranty). This also happen to other Xiaomi model.

I was stuck on android 12 and MIUI 13 and did this and was able to update to android 13 and MIUI 14 with January 2024 security patch. Don't worry you can put it back to your own region after updating

                            I've had mine for 11 months so far. Fingers crossed it won't brick itself after the warranty is over. So far no problems with it. Granted - I don't overheat it and most of the time I charge it in the range between 40-80%, as is suggested to prolong battery life. I have the global version and got late updates, long after they were released. The sudden death of many of these devices seems suspicious, but at the same time - this is a very popular model and angry users tend to be most vocal, i.e. - ones with bricked phones. Some statistics would be helpful to see how big this problem of dying phones is, but Xiaomi will probably never disclose them.

                              Why not warn people that their motherboards will shortly die on them? This phone is a disaster!

                                haha yea i don't recommend this phone, it worked absolutely great for exactly 1 and a half years and it just suddenly died (motherboard failed apparently).
                                even the people from the service centre said that they don't recommend fixing it as it might die again. so. might want to invest in another serie.

                                  Rohit, 01 Mar 2023Absolutely correct.... facing the same issue.Yes me tu

                                    Been using poco x3 pro (vayu) for 1 year and 8 months. At first I had a problem with signal changing bands frequently. The only solution that worked was to use custom rom (havoc os), root and an app band locker (modemcaps). Since then I never had any problems with my phone. It stabilized my phone signal. Don't be afraid to root your phone if you are having same problem I had. Gaming wise, very good for it's value (smooth codm and mobile legends gaming at max settings). Camera is great aswell (using LMC 8.4), which holds up with some previous flagship phones. Speaker though loud, it vibrates alot at the back, but I have no complaints about it since I already got used to it. I guess I've been lucky with my phone, cause a lot of people are having deadboot issues. Just don't use it heavily (gaming, fb messenger video call) while charging, then I think you'll be fine. Overall the best performing phone I had.

FYI I'm not a meticulous owner either. 😁 And I plan to continue using it for at least another 2 years.
