About this deal

It’s a mid-range chipset with power similar to the Snapdragon 855 Plus, used in phones like the Asus ROG Phone 2 and OnePlus 7T.

We haven’t minded too much, choosing for once to live like a rebel and not use a silicone case. But with a case attached, the Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro may be a struggle for some hands. The Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro is a fairly large phone. It’s 76.8mm wide. That’s wider than a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra or the nearer-in-price 21:9 aspect Moto G 5G Plus. The software on the phone is Android 11-based MIUI 12 which is quite feature-rich and very familiar. The UI is not the strong point of the Poco X3 Pro, but most of the annoying tidbits – like third-party apps hogging notification shades or update pop-ups while watching videos – can be fixed. Yes, they are old, 2019 phones. But the older 8-series Snapdragon chipsets are still more powerful than today’s 7-series ones.Power buttons, ports, and fingerprint readers are easily accessible. The X3 Pro further has a hybrid card slot and an IR blaster. There’s also a LED notification light, surely a rarity these days. This phone runs Android 11 with Xiaomi’s MIUI 12 software on top. This is fairly inoffensive, but its icons look, to our eyes at least, far too big fresh out of the box. Third on our list is the armor case for the Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro. Constructed from high-grade TPU and hard PC material, it provides maximum protection to your phone in case of impacts and scratches. It features a metal patch that can easily be attached to a magnetic holder in a car for easy GPS navigation or hands-free watching. The reinforced edge cushioning and raised edges provides full protection of the four corners from drops and sudden jerks. In dark scenes, the night mode manages to efficiently fix metering and embellish images. The night mode also works for the wide-angle camera. Take a look at the signage in the images below:

On the downside, you’d be missing AMOLED contrasts while watching multimedia content. Yes, you can easily get a decent AMOLED screen for under 20K, and that’s the trade-off you make for the excellent performance hardware. Besides, I think most users who aren’t as fastidious about their display requirements shouldn’t mind the panel on the Poco X3 pro. The Poco X3 Pro has a 5160mAh battery, just like the Poco X3 NFC. Its stamina is similarly impressive, even with a much punchier processor. The wide-angle camera does a fine job in proper daylight, but you need to balance your expectations.Poco X3 Pro has got its priorities straight. It aims to provide the best possible experience for gamers on a budget and to that end, it succeeds with aplomb. Not to say that other aspects have been neglected – the 120Hz smoothness, decent camera performance, long-lasting battery, and sturdy build are a few other highlights to look forward to. However, at least it’s not quite as bad as the ‘Dare to Leap’ slogan etched into some Realme rivals. A brand name is one thing, but a Facebook-grade inspirational quote? No thanks.
