already purchased 128gb version of this online.. I can't sleep from excitement 😁 update: I already have the phone and it's true it's laggy at first but after updating to the latest software.. You can feel the smoothness the best of all it has huge battery so I can enjoy the phone all day.
@@FlexTuneMusic I’m waiting for future firmware update then I'll buy it for sure. You can't buy a smartphone with defects on the assurance of getting it fixed after. Maybe 150 a lot less for western people but it's not that less for southeast Asians.
I had a lenovo k4 note. It also has dual front firing speakers that's dolby atmos certified and has wolfson quad DAC. It was a great music machine. Then I had the newer k5 pro with the stereo speakers.
I bought two POCOs for my parents and they are really happy with them. They needed a big battery and a huge screen so this phone was just perfect. THANKS FOR THE REVIEW!
For those who are thinking of buying this in 2022, please stay away. Poco M3 and its twin, Redmi 9T, suffer from the “dead boot” issue. If you try to reboot, it will shut down but not boot up. No combination of power and volume button presses can turn it on. Only solution is to wait for the battery to fully drain, then connect to a charger. If the empty battery icon appears, try to turn it on. If it goes back to deadboot, try again (drain battery, connect to charger, try to turn on). Took me 3 tries before I succeeded, and now the phone must avoid reboots.
I'm familiar with Xiaomi phones and how to disable ads. Been using my Redmi Note 8 Pro for almost a year now and I'm all over it. Fantastic phone, love the SoC inside. If I were suddenly in the market for a new phone I'll likely grab one of these phones in yellow even if it's a downgrade from my current phone. I've been thinking there should be yellow phones then suddenly the M3 comes out. Just love that playful yellow matte plastic body that doesn't take itself too seriously like so many phones out there.
I'm so glad that the most reliable reviews on mobile phones are back. As these past years when I purchase devices after watching their reviews there is not a point in my life that I regret that purchase decision relying with their reviews.
Hi! Great content. Considering the wildly different battery sizes percentages don't tell the whole story. It would be great if you included the actual mAh. Redmi note charged to 31% which is 1556 mAh. Poco charged to 25% which is 1500 mAh - making it very close. However the realme even though it has the smallest battery charged to 58% which is 2900 mAh. Awesome to see you back!
I currently have this as a temporary phone, while I save up for v60 because I really want the dual screen! I am really loving this phone and its so cheap and its gorgeous!!
I just bought it 1 day ago and I can say it's pretty smooth but I'm having some force stop issues in TH-cam and other Google apps but it's fine. Gaming is pretty good it gets 60 fps in Wild Rift, I will test COD Mobile and Asphalt 9 today.
Most of the optimization that can be done to make the device buttery smooth is done via rooting where you can delete the bloatwares and ads amd many more. This device deserves more than a praise when rooted..
I noticed a strange improvement, when i put an extra display cover in hardened glass on it. It became noticable faster. Like tuchscreen on turbo. Strange, but nice:-) Otherwise, one feature not mentioned, is the very good sound using headphones through the top jack. Streaming tidal is very enjoyable, the sound is wide and detailed.
Are you guys Bulgarian or operating in Bulgaria? Because all of your photos from camera tests I have seen are from Sofia and specifically around TU-Sofia 😁
LCD screen, slow terrible CPU, terrible camera, how is this anywhere near flagship? Only idiots will buy it. You can get 2019-2020 flagships for around the same price with real cpus + good cameras.
I bought the phone. Been a decent experience so far. Honestly not to laggy and it does run games well presently. Only frustrating part is finding a carrier that will actually provide service for it. Currently using my old phone for call and text and this for media on wifi/hotspot. Would love to know if anyone has any ideas
Glad to see GSM are back and providing more great reviews. I hope Google ended up helping you resolve the issue. Google busted a lot of street cred for me after there lack of support. Keep up the good work!
This is by far one of the best mobile phone i've used. It has big battery capacity, big screen, feel very sturdy and durable. It may not be the fastest but it is smooth, it is responsive and gets the job done..
Wow really love your content this is amazing. What is your preferred editing software you use for filmmaking, I'd love to have a conversation and maybe even collaborate on different ways in telling stories through film!
I've been using this one for 8 months now and im I M P R E S E D. I've also saw some lag but overall, i think its a pretty good phone. Plus virus scan and Trash apps are a lifesaver if you are gonna use a 32GB version of this phone. Even tho i use a 64 version of this phone i still use the trash app everyday. The camera isn't so good or bad. It's more about a little more above average. Also, if you are low on budget, this phone is also a lifesaver this is my opinion so yea
Very bad experience! Bought 6 gb 64 gb poco m3 from a local mi store (Xiaomi's official store)(Location: Thakurgaon,Bangladesh). Within one week, I found 2 major problems. Selfie camera is very bad because of some software or hardware issue and Gyroscope is not working properly in games (in driving many games). I went to that mi store back again and was trying to show them what was wrong with the phone, they were not accepting at all. Then I told them I want to send it for warranty. They sent it. I got the phone from the store after one month and lots of visits and calls so that they can give my phone back from warranty fast. The Selfie camera is good enough now, but Gyroscope still having the same problem. I wanted to buy xiaomi's more expensive phones by adding some money. They don't accept it. I'm not going to send it for warranty repair again for one month. My whole family using xiaomi's phone including my past note 4 which is working till today just fine. We are not going to buy any xiaomi phone in the future because of the very bad experience I swear! The store people are very careless and their attitude is not like they want to help.

is it too slow?
@@austinsteward7339 some user said.. but I'm taking risk buying this phone hoping future firmware updates will fix the issue

@@austinsteward7339 Saw some reviews on TH-cam.. lags are just minimal.. it reminds me of huawei y6 where they have the same issue
I feel u bro😂
I'm glad you guys are back!
The dual speakers at that price is hard to beat, you dont see that on mid range devices...
The motorola g8 power was a big disappointment; it feels cheap and the display is horrid!
and they sound great
My previous phone Lenovo K6 had dual speakers with dolby atmos
Yes. I just bought the phone the speakers are soo danggg good. Even when playing pubg w/o earphones.
I had a lenovo k4 note. It also has dual front firing speakers that's dolby atmos certified and has wolfson quad DAC. It was a great music machine. Then I had the newer k5 pro with the stereo speakers.
Two videos in less than 24 hours! You're spoiling us. So pleased you guys are back. My absolute favourite YT channel. 👍

Great comeback GSMARENA 👍👍🤗🤗
The first thing I think about each phone is software.
With this price, i couldn't ask for more

May deadboot issue poco m3 2 months pa lang namatay na, sabi sa service center mainboard dw sira hangggang ngayon hindi ko pa nakukuha ilang weeks na
I've been using this one for 8 months now and im I M P R E S E D.
I've also saw some lag but overall, i think its a pretty good phone.
Plus virus scan and Trash apps are a lifesaver if you are gonna use a 32GB version of this phone.

The camera isn't so good or bad. It's more about a little more above average.
Also, if you are low on budget, this phone is also a lifesaver
this is my opinion so yea
Great review, short and focused!

Glad you're back!❤️
