Watch the Poco X3 NFC announcement live here

Yordan, 07 September 2020

Poco is a rather intriguing smartphone brand in many ways, and the latest device stays true to the quirkiness of the Xiaomi spin-off. The name of the new phone will be Poco X3 NFC and will have a unique quad-camera lineup on the back, with the shooters shaped in an X-formation.

The launch will take place at noon GMT and we’ve provided a YouTube link below to follow it live.

The Poco X3 NFC is confirmed to be the first smartphone with Snapdragon 732G chipset, and it will have 6 GB RAM and 64 GB storage. The front will be occupied by a 6.67” LCD with a punch-hole in the top center for a 20 MP selfie camera. Reports are it will support a 120 Hz refresh rate and will be protected by a Gorilla Glass 5.

Looking at the back, we expect a 64 MP main cam, while this whole ensemble will be powered by a massive 5,100+ mAh battery - the biggest in a Poco ever. The price was teased to be anywhere between $225 and $265, according to one regional listing, but we have to wait for the official unveiling to see details about market availability.

The branding as NFC is done simply because a lot of buyers just don't know what they're buying. Poco are simply taking advantage of the average consumer's naivety.

Under 50 cents per Chip including the NFC chip and RFID chip. It's dirt cheap but manufacturers simply cost it's value based on it's usefulness and not what it costs to implement. Another smartphone manufacturer marketing trick. Becaus...

Almost thought this was a realme product because of the name and logo colour. Out of all the things they could've chose (Pro, Plus, +,) they chose NFC. How expensive is NFC to not have it in every phone?
