Hi guys, first post here, so please be kind! :D
I was looking to buy a new phone and decided on this, this looks like it's the cheapest price around, really similar to other offers available at present, but seems a no brainer to me considering amazon service and fast delivery!
Uk version so a power adapter would be necessary
CamelCamelCamel.
Mine just shipped as well, apparently arriving 4th of December :)
Lucky you guys!
Mine's still "preparing for shipment". Hopefully it gets sent soon!
Just got the shipped email! December 5th apparently!!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
Mine shipped now too! December 8th though, even though they said Dec 1st last time. But either way, yay!
Just got the confirmation its shipped.
Its saying 4 December for arrival.
Yay - that's only a month from order.
I've waited twice as long for stuff from Aliexpress.
Also got the 4th, but given it’s going DHL Express it could easily be sooner. My Amazon USA stuff after taking 2 weeks or so to ship only took a couple of days to get here also by courier.
Dhl messaged me saying the estimated deliver is on the 30th November, against the 4th December date on amazon, i really hope I'll get it by next Friday though!
yes, going to DHL website with the tracking number gives an earlier date for me too… awesome
Same here. ETA 30th November.
Amazon has delivery on 15th december for me, but UPS tracking says 24/11. Hopefully UPS is right and not amazon.
Mine shipped too, ETA 5th December. The best phone deal of the year 2020!
Strange, my Amazon order says "Returning to Seller", but the DHL site doesn't say anything yet, only "Shipment information received".
Have sent DHL an email, hopefully it gets sorted.
EDIT: Contacted Amazon, and just my luck, my order was badly damaged during transit and returned to amazon UK, so i need to re-order it (it's a global order so they said they don't have authority to replace it). But they will refund the difference which is nice.
My order shipped from Heathrow to East Midlands then back to Heathrow, then to Germany. Now it is transferring through East Midlands.
Custom status updated in USA. Looks like next stop is USA.
My one still in Leipzig after leaving the UK Monday morning.
Yay, delivered!
So, what are your first impressions?
Present for someone for Xmas so I won't be opening it unfortunately.
Received mine today. Its quite a large and thick phone. Still getting use to the changes to the gui. Battery seems to be good.
Speaker vibrate the back of the phone. The UK charger needs a converter to AU plug and has a funny short plastic earth pin. Until I worked out that you need to pull it down to extended it to the correct position. Its a neat solution to decrease the size of the charger.
My biggest worry about this phone is it's a brick. I'm waiting for mine and desperately checking Ozb for better deals in the Black Friday sales. Your comment makes me think I might not open it and just sell it….
Just saw the Realme 7 pro deal but that's at Tobys so some concern there…
Any phone with a screen size of 6.67 inches could be considered a brick, not just Poco X3….which is why I bought it.
Mine delivered in Vic.
Just received my Poco X3 NFC. It's not a brick. It's only slightly bigger than my Samsung S8 Plus. What a nice phone! Feels like a real flagship. I still can't believe I got it for $350. What a bargain!
Good to hear. I just nipped in to JB to check out similar size phones which reinforced that bezels have shrunk and screens have grown and it shouldn't be too dissimilar in overall size with my existing phone.
Ordered mine on 09/11/20 and only just received it. I'm in Sydney BTW.
Amazing color and I'm liking it so far.
I did spend $1.3k on an Oppo Find X2 Pro earlier in the year. Don't get me wrong, Total flag ship that phone is but for $350 this is a steal. I'd even pay up to $500 for it.
Arrived today, a Sunday. Not often I get a delivery on a Sunday!
Yep mine too.
Those who have received their phones, how would you rate the Amazon packaging?
I was curious about it already but now concerned reading comments on a thread in the forums here.
Fine. Outer box had some small damage to the corner but inner phone box was 100% ok.
Same! One squished corner but the actual phone was fine.
Received phone today in Sydney.
The charger is UK or Chinese pins?
Do you guys buy travel adapter for that or new AU charger? Which one?
Mine just shipped, arriving 3rd December apparently
