I have Poco X3 NFC and Poco X3 Pro. I bought NFC last October of 2020 and Pro Last Dec of 2021. As of my NFC that is still up and running with broken LCD, my Pro just died yesterday after 2 major issue. No warning just died with 60+% battery, plain black screen no logo, tried re balling but still not pushing tru. All my files are gone. Just like that.

      One of the best mobile in history of mankind. I have it until now,perfectly working with 4 hrs sot and 1 and half day of standby even after 3 years of usage. Im lucky to have this one but sadly poco is dead after x3 pro,all x series are not value for the money anymore. With the removal of sd card,I cant enjoy my big library of emulated games anymore because the higher storage options are expensive AF. If they give higher capacity the price is higher but also going back to either emmc or ufs 2. Pak

        I bought my Poco X3 Pro (8/256gb) almost FOUR years ago (April-2021).

        It's still working great as a little beast, only the battery is showing its age as it can't last more than 36 hours now.

        It went through hell and back, including an *underwater trip in icy waters* when I fell through the ice while trekking on a frozen lake in Stockholm two years ago 🥳.
        Once I managed to reach a stronger ground, I took it out of my trousers' pocket and made a video of the frozen hole with floating ice.

        So yeah, the Poco X3 Pro is absolutely a GREAT phone !
        Note: this is my opinion and I agree with it.

                        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!
