        The biggest problem I found with this phone is most of the time when making a call you don't hear the other person and they don't hear you either. The only way to fix this is restarting the phone. This happens 7/10 calls. Ultra annoying.

          Small bugs on Operating System. Overall i think the best phone for the price.

                    I hugely disagree with a part of review saying that the camera is not upto mark.
                    Just go and install a gcam mod and see the results.
                    I am using it with my A52 and Oneplus 9, I would anyway prefer it over both due to the consistency, color tuning and the low light performance.
                    POCO phones have an advantage, their phones are so cheap and balanced, it attracts a larger community of people, after that once people discover the software downsides, custom software is made.
                    We've already seen this in Poco F1, it currently too has such a nice custom rom/software support that even Xiaomi's phones are lacking, same is the case with Poco X3. The hardware is so good for the price, the people purchasing it don't mind using custom software to get results equivalent to the devices which are thrice the cost.

                      I'm still using my 10W charger even if it takes a long time to charge the battery ... but it keeps the device cool all the time !

                      You have been warned !

                          I disagree with part of the review. It's may 2020 and my Poco already has the android 11 update,global version I use.
                          The battery charging is very fast 75 minutes for a battery with 5260 is fast ,I have a Samsung galaxy s20 plus too for 5 times the price,it's charging full in 1 hour but has a smaller battery. No iPhone or Samsung charges faster, compared to the battery size. 30 Kim charging is enough time to but bring you through the entire day unless you use it 24 hours

                            Actually I liked this phone. I bought it in September 2020, but since a few weeks I get occasional ghost touch, that is super annoying. Set the display to 60 Hz, worked for a while but then started again. Anybody else had this issue?

                              So many people are saying the phone is great and so many are saying the opposite - I DON'T KNOW WHO TO BELIEVE :( Thinking about buying it but it's not so easy with completely contrasting opinions.

                                overall, for nearly the same price as the poco x3 pro (around $40 more), the x3 pro ages better than the x3 nfc as it has a much better chipset overall. the camera is undoubtly worse tho, although the rest, they are the same.
