I myself much prefer to use 60Hz all day long with the only exception for mobile gaming where I would switch to 120Hz.

    It's not 201x anymore, stop with the 60 Hz panels already. Time to move on.

      because people never go into forum if they have good batch

      is like hospital, full of sick people
      because healthy people don't go to hospital

        Great Review GSM - About what I'd expect from Sony - Middling of the pack and paying a slight premium for the specs.

        Would have been awesome to ask for more but corners will always be cut somewhere.

                  They are the masters in battery optimisation.

                    poor camera compared to minote10, poco x3, mi10tpro,............ list is big, so is the shame.

I was one of the first buyers of the phone. It is working fine after 3 years but I am bored of it so will change the phone after a few months. The phone is working fine after so many years and I have dropped it a few times. Since its not a glass back no chance of it shattering and glass backs have the ergonomics of a soap bar. Very very slippery. The only thing I wasn't terribly happy about the Poco was software optimizations. But it was half the price as Sony phones which had specifications of $150 phones but prices of $550 phones. No wonder the market rejected Sony and they went from 54 million phones to just 3.2 million devices in 2019.

                        Such a good pachage for the price and people are still complaining.

Software adaptation (settings that can match faster chipsets) and compatibility best in class, camera can be improved and for first firmware these are good results. Top device for its price for quality in time and dust/water resistance. Must have!

Don't make me laugh, Xiaomi never pay much attention to Redmi and Poco phones when it comes to software support. You have to be really lucky to see one. In fact, as of June 2021, the only pre-2021 Xiaomi Poco phones that receive Android 11 OS update are the Poco F2 Pro and the Poco X2*. The rest are still stuck on Android 10. Some Xiaomi phones never even receive any OS update at all! No surprise why Xiaomi phones are super popular with the custom ROM community.

People who buy Xiaomi Poco phones are the sort of people who do care a lot about the chipset performance. They don't care much about build quality or OS optimization or even USB-C 3.1 as long as they can have a powerful flagship-grade chipset mainly for mobile gaming in High settings without breaking the bank. People who buy the Xperia are the ones who always want a solid all-around experience, especially for long term use.

Thing it is I don't think these two cater to same audience, Poco is noticeably bigger device. It's whole 100mm taller and wider an of course heavier. I'm not sure those looking at Poco would ever consider 10III and vice versa. Poco is more of a gamer crowd while 10III is more of a I just need a damn phone crowd. The only real beef I have against Xiaomis in general is USB 2.0 instead of 3.1, that makes a lot of difference when you are un/loading few gigs of music and images
