I am not recommending this when it comes to heavy games. I saw a comment which is very similar to me. i am playing mobile legends bang bang yesterday and it is very terrible I can't tap the skills or sometimes the movement doesn't interact. i was hoping that this is the new monster but i am very disappointed.

It's the best phone i ever had. Yes it has some software issues, but those will be ironed out with future updates. You have a solid hardware base and everything else will mature over time, with updates. With the 12.5 update the phone is super smooth and snappy. You can switch between apps faster than you can blink. The screen is a pleasure to look at, the sound quality is stellar, photos are decent, battery is a beast, what else do you want for this price point? For me it's money well spent.

I use before this phone a galaxy note 10 plus!
But this phone for this price(280€) in my place its is extremely good with the gcam for a person who don shoot 100 photos a day i think this poco f3 its the best phone to buy for the money!
Screen quality was a bit beter in note 10 plus but with 120 hz refresh rate it is night and day differen..

Hey guys, I watched so many reviews and can't decide, please help! Should I go for the Redmi Note 10 Pro, or for the Poco F3...I am not a gamer, but surely a heavy user! I have the Poco X3 NFC right now, but it has gotten super slow and it's lagging like hell! Thanks!

This phone is pretty special. Its a pity that in my country there are no Poco phones. Otherwise I would've bought this the second it landed in stores. Can someone refer me to a similarly specced and priced phone like this.

and I'm wondering how GCam able to record 4K@60 where the IMX582 is not supporting that framerate at 4K!

I'v had this phone for around 2 weeks now and i just got the Xiaomi.EU rom on it a couple of days ago, the improvements over global dont really seem to be there but at least now MIUI it matches up with what my old Mi 8 had.
Any news about the green tint issue? I read that Xiaomi India acknowledged this issue with the Mi 11x which is the same phone and im guessing the Redmi K40 also suffers from the same thing, my phone has it while its a bit annoying its not the worst i guess, so far im happy with the phone, the battery life has been adequate, im able to play some games during the day and still get +6hrs screen ON time which is alright, not impressive tho.

The complaining group looks like still on the previous firmware, İ am having the new MIUI 12.5.1 global.
No problems at all !
Actually all my problems solved already with this update.
you may complain about the camera.yep that's not best.
however it's not a camera phone, screen speakers chipset
İt's all about gaming..so you should have known about it before buying Poco F3..

Panos, 07 Jun 2021Hi, i would like to learn what bugs has this phone on softw... moreScreen dimming issues. Were corrected by software update.
Heating issues (when charging, longer video calls or heavy gaming). I measured 43 degrees Celsius. But I think it could go even higher, because at 43 degrees I stopped playing. Not corrected with software updates (if they could ever be corrected?).
Green tint issues and poor color calibration (tried changing manually some settings, still doesn't work). Not corrected even to this day with any software update.
Other issues I didn't encounter.
Powerful phone, but I think Poco just rushed it out at a lower price to attract customers. The phone has poor quality.
I have it at selling, and nobody wants to touch this model phone even with a 10m long pole, lol. Because they know it's a problematic model. Or they want it with very cheap money. And is new phone, 3 months old.
Anyway, my last Poco phone for sure. Good riddance.

The battery ... moreI have the global model in Central European country and, as of today 9.06.2021, I am still on MiUi 12.0.5.
I am waiting for MiUi 12.5 since start of May, maybe they will correct my green tint issues.
This is certainly my last Poco device ever. Good and powerful on paper, but very bad in software updates and quality.
