I been using poco F3 for 3 years, it's been a really great phone. But I have got some majors , first is the volume max glitch while making ss , the battery after 10 goes to 0 in just a 1-2 mins if you replaced a battery it would be good and the last one is motherboard issues. As it's a gaming phone I have been doing heavy gaming such as pubg ,codm , genshin impact on it while phone was on charging. Which fried my processor up and damaged my phone. It started by getting stuck and phone got restarted but eventually it just became dead completely. They replaced the processor with another poco for 15 days they worked on it it finally turned on but they frieds its band width so no sim network on it. Which is a terrible thing it stills sometimes get stuck but gaming performance is still impressive. I keep it as a gaming device now.
Purchased mine during Dec 2021 and I am still using it today. Battery life was good. It could still last me a day. I really think that this phone is still a beast in terms of design and performace even if processors were from 2 years ago.
@@eyqaira2033 battery performance was good. It can last me a whole day even with mobile data on. Mostlikely still lasts me 6hrs screentime if used non stop.
This tracks very well with my experience also using the Poco F3 for a little over a year. Good on you for making a video like this; you almost never see a review revisit and I always love to see them because there's always things that can't be captured in the initial review I'll say that I personally haven't noticed the standby battery drain issue with my unit. Also, I'm using mine in the US, so the EU device and US cellular bands might be playing a role there? 🤷♂️
Bought the phone on release, I'm still keeping it on MIUI 13.0.7. There are only a few issues with the phone for me. First of all, the phone's battery has degraded quite a lot, and it does not last as long as it did before. This is expected from every phone after years of use, but it usually means that it is time for an upgrade. Secondly, there's issues with the display, the phone randomly sets itself to 60 Hz even though the setting is still at 120hz, and the screen gets really dark after more than 30 minutes of consecutive use. Finally, the worst thing that happened to the phone so far, they have removed the custom app icon feature from poco launcher with a new update. This is not exactly a poco F3 issue, but it really makes MIUI not worth using. I think the phone is still usable with a custom rom but with the recent MIUI updates I do not think it's worth keeping this phone with the stock rom.
hey guys i was thinking to get this phone but i am afraid to go with poco brand since my poco x 3 pro got death . please can you guys give me any suggetion please. should i buy it ? is there any motherboard issue in poco f3?
@@dyinirtan01 bro u high or something? Last month I just got my F3's glass back replaced, what are you talking about? Looks like u don't have f3 urself lol
It will work, but it doesn’t support all the bands T-Mobile uses, so coverage or speeds might be worse than with a fully compatible phone. It should work good enough though, the main bands are supported. I’m in the US right now and have had no issues connecting to T-Mobile with my foreign SIM (roaming).
The poco F3 is a MUCH quicker phone than the google 7 Pro, that i can tell for shure, the screen is allso quite good, the battery is allso much BETTER than that google thing. My NEXT phone willbe a poco for shure😊

Mine also has some scratches on the back. But hey its only the back and it can easily be replaced. It's not like gorilla glass won't scratch. Thats why I always use a screen protectors on the display.
Sir, why is it only P2,600/$151 in Lazada.. was it Legit, it has no bad reviews, only 15 reviews and sold by 700 people. I am very skeptical about it. Could you give me insight if the price is just right or sus. Thankyou, Ill subscribe at your response and share you in my social site

So in conclusion, i should not play while charging and invest in mobile phone cooler?
Wow genshin while charging
@@kammmmal211just buy fan cooler and play in cooler place, u can play the phone while charging but its better to balance the graphics

Amazing phone♥️ 2 years of using and still 0 issues
Indeed! A great package at an even better price!
Rocking the f3. But what you on about miui 13? I'm on miui 14 and android 13 since a long time now.
The update hasn’t been pushed to my phone yet:(

In fact, I have been using it for two and a half years. Is it more than two years, or was it released late in your country? It is a great device
battery drain is due to repetitive updates install .... when you buy an android phone, stick whith the original software and never update it !
My Poco F3 still rock and fast, the only issue is the battery, it needed to be replaced.
is it still worth it to buy in 2024? Will the battery degradation be very noticeable?
Its still good the battery lasts for around 6,7 hours depend on what you using it
It's got hyper OS now.
Also, you could use some weights to improve your appearance.
Real? It has hyper OS now?
@@kakyoin2076yep I'm using it. It's really smooth
I use this phone poco f3 use are 1 year i very like good are lot👍👍🤗🤗🤗🕺🕺🕺

hey guys i was thinking to get this phone but i am afraid to go with poco brand since my poco x 3 pro got death . please can you guys give me any suggetion please. should i buy it ? is there any motherboard issue in poco f3?
Yes this Poco series has most problems of mother board issues.
My Poco f3 mother board is also dead after using for 2.5 years. Money wasted.
It's an absolute beast of a phone. I love it. Even in 2024 it outperforms new phone models. It's just a great phone overall.
Can you give me a quick review of the overall phone please....I want to buy it
Thanks for the video.
But i have a white poco phone and the back it feels very premium and it is glass not plastic.
Didn't know that the back in blue is plastic
Blue is glass too im using it now
dude i have miui 14 and andriod 13 for like two months !
I know a lot of people have had android 13 for a while, it’s just not been the case for my phone.
I got my poco f3 for 2 yrs and my only issue is the volume automatically increasing maximum like a ghost touch 😢
Search a tutorial how to repair this, at me worked
I had no problems with my battery, it lasted me whole day with 5g on and played some games after some youtube consumption
How much Screen on time are you guys getting? Im getting 5-6 hours on browsing normal use with 120hz
About the same, SOT is fine, standby drain has been a problem for me.
Poco F3 has glass back bro
No it hasn't
@@dyinirtan01 bro u high or something? Last month I just got my F3's glass back replaced, what are you talking about? Looks like u don't have f3 urself lol

You should unlock the bootloader and update your phone to miui 14 extreme xda rocking phone from 3 years Pakistan
That sounds like a lot of work for not much benefit
@@TheFabytmyup remove miui shit just flash pixel experience with gcam it can even beat nothing phone 1 camera and it fell smooth and animation is smooth
Hi brother also make a video about poco x3 pro, I am using it still working without problem.❤
I hope you have your OS UPDATE now.
Because mine is on HYPER OS.
i loved my pixel 3 xl but it learly came to a decline in speed so i looked out for a budgetphone with good cpu. camera i dont care or tbh id like to have a smooth backside and front so id be enlightened by a smartphone without any cameras.^^
pros of pixel 3xl: fucking awesome ppi! both speakers on front and awesome quality (sadly poco f3 is quite the opposite here :/) and slim but big and sturdy.
so i get my hands on a used one for 120€ inclunding shipping (130$) im really looking forward to its arrival even in 2024.^^
Have you tested the phone camera with gcam or LMC with the right profiles? This would change the perspective on the camera I suppose
No, just the stock camera app
try gcam 8.1 with ironhrt 1.3 xml best one so far ...u will forget miui anx camera
Nick Eh 30 when you order him form Walmart
Watch on F3👍
Just a sec, if this video is 9 days old then you should be on A13. Nevertheless, I'm typing on F3.
I should be, but the update is not being pushed for whatever reason…
Just download the full ROM and flash it.
Isn't your F3 back Glass with Gorilla5 protection? What are you talking about?
You can see the scratches in the video
@@TheFabytm Is it plastic or glass?
