When jumping between apps, the screen adapts its refresh rate to the app at hand, greatly reducing power consumption without compromising the smooth experience. It seems to get a slight 'turbo' boost outdoors on bright days, but nothing close to flagship-like power.

Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro review - TechRadar

The Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 732G processor boasts strong graphics processing capacity and advanced AI computing capabilities. You may be able to obtain finance for your purchase from other lenders and you are encouraged to seek alternative quotations. The main camera performance is the sort of thing we used to see quite commonly in phones with Samsung sensors, a few years earlier. The Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC is a mostly slightly worse alternative to the Poco X3 Pro, but it actually has better cameras, so if photography is a priority then it's worth considering.The Pro tends to smudge fine detail, and demonstrates poorer mid-tone contrast than the best in this class. The Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro has a fingerprint scanner on its side, rather than an in-screen one, but it’s great. Compared to the phones with 120Hz touch sampling rate, the 240Hz touch sampling rate of this phone is increased by 100%, and the feedback speed is as fast as 4. We left the 120Hz display mode switched on during testing and were routinely left with 40% or more charge remaining by the end of the day.

That was after a solid day of use, including some browsing, a short gaming session, and a lot of audio streaming. The back of the Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro is dressed up to look like dual-finish strips of matte and glossy glass. This is fairly inoffensive, but its icons look, to our eyes at least, far too big fresh out of the box. However, the Poco X3 Pro’s main camera performs noticeably worse than some of the alternatives, including Xiaomi's own Poco X3 NFC and Redmi Note 10 Pro. One of the first things we did was to open up the ‘home’ settings, shrink the icons slightly and fit in more per page.The processor comparison is comparing Snapdragon™ 860 with the processor of POCO X3 NFC (Snapdragon™ 732G). Its images are significantly softer, with less fine detail and texture detail, than the Poco X3 NFC’s.

It lost several more percent of charge overnight and needed to be plugged in by lunchtime on day two. The Poco X3 NFC is arguably a better-balanced phone than the X3 Pro, and as such it ranks among the best cheap phones. It’s relatively thick and the screen, which has a high inch count and is not excessively tall, leads to width comparable with some of the biggest phones. The Poco X3 Pro's screen looks sharp, color is bold, and the fairly large size instantly gives you the sense it’s made for games, video, and other stuff the enthusiast Poco crowd would enjoy. The phone scores 2,530 points in Geekbench 5, far greater than the 1,800-ish of Snapdragon 765G phones like the OnePlus Nord.The Motorola One 5G - also known as the Moto G 5G Plus - is similarly affordable and includes 5G - which you don't get here. However, the truly notable performance improvement over less powerful phones like the Poco X3 NFC is in high-end games such as Fortnite and ARK: Survival Evolved.
