Let's keep the software bugs aside, Why so much false advertisement? There's no Dolby Atmos, Screen has black crush issue which cannot be fixed by a software update it's completely a display issue.

        Post setup it lasts 1.5 days. Much better than my Samsung S20 which gets me less than 15 hours.

          Here I read from about 3 people that this phone has bad battery usage that requires charging at least 2 times a day, even with light use. Is this really the case? This is really a more important point to me than the dimming problem. Do you think this phone will not survive a day in medium-high usage? If this is really the case, can this be largely resolved by an update? Assuming this is true and will not be resolved, is f3 still a good option?

              Noticed it that F3 has some ghost touching.

              Sometimes it does not register my swipes. And sometimes it register touches where far from where I'm touching

                    Been using my Mi Max 2 for 3 years now and planning to go for an upgrade soon. Is it recommended for me to get the Poco F3?

                        Anonymous, 23 Apr 2021False advertisement they said it’s powered by snapdragon 87... moreits overclocked 865.. duh

                          I had the phone since launch, I will point out the Pros and Cons side of it:

                          Pros:
                          + Gaming is smooth. I had turn on the Genshin Impact to the max settings and it is still running well. Had played the AOV and LOL:WR, both was able to run flawlessly
                          + Light weight compare to other phone
                          + Build looks solid
                          + Flat Screen
                          + Sound quality from both side speakers not bad
                          + Fingerprint was fast unlocking

                          Cons:
                          -Camera was awful even if compare it with Huawei P30
                          -Battery life was bad even if i turn the refresh rate to 60Hz. i need to charge 2 times per day even when normal usage without playing games
                          - Even though the device support Refrest rate 120hz, non of the games that offer 120hz is able to turn this refresh rate on the game settings
                          - Miui is pretty bad UI. looks confusing and dark mode was bad
                          - Always on Display was too plain. Nothing to play around
                          - You cant install unknown apps even if you allow it. Example: Youtube Vance (dunno is it due to Android 11 restriction)

                          Extra: Many comments and reviewers mentioned there is device dim issue when playing for certain length of time, but so far I didnt encounter this issue at all (Version 12.0.2 Stable)

                            If anyone of you is planning to buy this please read this out first I hope this will help you out. First I'll start with what I like with this phone the built quality is without any question great in this price bracket. The cameras are decent enough as this is a performance centric phone. Now I will tell you what I did not like with this phone, let's start with the Display the screen is not as bright as they mentioned (1300Nits) After using this phone I noticed a major issue within the display there was a greenish tint in the display which was more visible on grey shade (Black Crush display issue). Other than that there was no Dolby Atmos available which they claimed about in their launch event. The Audio quality was not as much pleasing from the type C port. Now I'll share the UI experience, I did not liked the POCO MIUI it's not as stable as the MIUI. Also this Phone does not support Full HD streaming on Amazon Prime but you can play HDR content on both Netflix and YouTube. let's talk about the gaming performance on this one I played PUBG a lot and faced multitouch issues but the game FPS were constant.

                                    After about week I can say it's lot to consider sending phone back. The SW is really bad. Problems I face: 1. Battery drain - battery live is bad even after 12.0.4. update. Drains 8-9% during night in Airplane mode. Without airplane about 18%. I was hoping this going to be 1.5 day phone for me but this barely holds from morning to evening.
                                    2. Camera is really bad in indoor shots, trying to level automatically contrast on max. so you have dark and face shiny photos but zero details in low light areas. Gcam port is much better in this. 3. Slow auto brightness sensor. Happens to me many times when I pull then phone out of pocket to daylight and was not able to see anything for about 20 sec. great for receiving calls. 4. Bad proximity sensor for phone recognize you have screen at ear, many fault touches during the calls
                                    5. Can not connect to my earbuds automatically in 80% etc.

                                    Bad done Xiaomi and months of work on updates to fix that.

                                      What about the ads and bloatware on this phone? Can you remove it easily?
