    Great phone - so fast. Only issue I have is it doesn't handle my Tplink mesh as good as Id like (need to switch wifi on off as I move through the house)

    Works with VoLTE and VoWifi on Boost

    • albert0pia on 25/09/2021 - 18:40

      Did VoLTE and VoWiFi work out of the box?

      • CachePC on 25/09/2021 - 19:20
        +3

        You need to use the dialer codes but worked no issue after that. Heard it can take a power off/reset but did work. VoWifi seems pretty cool - seem to get it used when talking to Apple phones.

    • battler on 25/09/2021 - 19:38

      What model of mesh do you have? I have S4 and not noticed any issue.

    • Clavender on 25/09/2021 - 19:42

      Just signed up to give you my fix. Turn off Fast Roaming. Apparently it doesnt support 802.11r. Took me 3 months of frustration and googling. Finally completely happy with my poco x3 pro

      • CachePC on 25/09/2021 - 20:32

        Thanks - done. Tplink M5 triple pack

      • Telstar220 on 27/09/2021 - 13:37

        hi there, where is the fast roaming setting? if turned off, does it affect other devices on the same wifi network?

        • Clavender on 27/09/2021 - 14:23
          +2

          Fast roaming is a setting on my tplink Deco app in the advanced settings. Disabling it had no effect on other phones, tablets, mi box, Nintendo switch or computers to which they were able to link to each mesh. From what I found the wifi protocol of 802.11r is a newer, faster setting and may not work with older devices or devices without the protocol. Turning it off was the only thing that made my poco work with my mesh.

    • Telstar220 on 27/09/2021 - 13:29

      I had exactly the same issue, poco x3 pro and tp-link deco m5 3pk mesh. The phone intermittently lost internet connection with wifi still connected. switch wifi on off is a workaround. Suspect that it has something to do with wifi mesh but can't proof. Did you solve it completely?

      • Clavender on 27/09/2021 - 14:24

      Can essentially net it for around AU $278 delivered buying instead through the Shopback App. This will take you to the mobile site which offers it as a group buy for US$208 (AU$292) needing you as the one final person of two to complete it. Untick insured shipping, paying with Paypal instead and in US$ on a card that offers a good XE rate. This way you should get 5% cashback as no coupon is used.

  • Mentok on 25/09/2021 - 17:55

    Are people buying 4G phones over 5G phones for any reason other than pricepoint at the moment? I remember when the 4G phones started to replace 3G and the 4G phones were inefficient, hot and kinda buggy. Are we past that point yet for 5G?

    • Jenny Death on 25/09/2021 - 18:00
      +4

      Any potential bugs aside, i personally dont see a need for speeds faster than 4g on my phone. Not against 5g, just dont do any massive downloads on the go.

      • MagicTsukai on 25/09/2021 - 18:24
        +3

        Agreed. 99% use the internet for surfing, gaming or streaming videos. 4g is pretty dam fast and good for that. 5g won't be super necessary yet unless you love torrenting or something.

    • Qwertyworm on 25/09/2021 - 18:09

      what for do you need internet speed faster than 150mbps?
      personally, i don't know what for I need it so I'm still on 4g, despite my phone is 5g and I'm too lazy to buy a new 5g sim

    • Wonderfool on 25/09/2021 - 20:24

      I mean, even if 5g managed to become stable enough to be daily driven, 4g is sufficient for most people. There's something to be said about having a larger range of bandwidth to prevent traffic, but that's not an inherent 5g thing.

      I think 5g will eventually matter when we enter cloud gaming era, but let's be real, many of us are probably happy with just parsec or something on 4g.

    • BadGiraffe on 25/09/2021 - 21:34

      5G will activate the vaccine to make you magnetic. That in itself should make you want to get 5G phones right now.

    • ruprectaus on 25/09/2021 - 21:43

      Only Telstra 5G here for example northern Gold Coast), so i'd rather wait a year or 2 for 5G (assuming it takes that long to roll out) , then another year or two to see some sort of competition in the 5G space , then another year or two to see it come to the MVNO's ? (speculating at the time line)

      4G is more then fast enough for me.

  • Tehcookiemonsta on 25/09/2021 - 18:49

    Hmm this or Note 10 PRO.

    • Jenny Death on 25/09/2021 - 19:11

      I went note 10 pro for the screen since im more about mobile content consumption, but if youre more a mobile gamer the x3 pro is the better choice.

    • tellhimhesdreaming on 25/09/2021 - 22:17

          Whoops - can't keep up. It's the Poco F3 that doesn't hey?

          Have minor buyers remorse now… oh well!

    • pangasteve on 25/09/2021 - 23:43

      X3 Pro if gaming and future-proof performance is most important to you, especially the 8gb version. Note 10 Pro if camera and screen quality is most important to you. Neither is bad in any category but the X3 screen and camera is 4/5 compared to the Note 10 and the Note 10 real world performance is 4/5 that of the X3. And I know it's not objective, but the Note 10 Pro looks and feels better imho although the blue X3 Pro is growing on me.

      • OpayuOnam on 26/09/2021 - 12:06

        I don't have access to a note 10 pro, but have X3 Pro and X3 NFC (used same HW and CPU as RN10p).

        What I can tell you is that the camera difference is not as dramatic as you'd think, the X3 Pro definitely wins on speed of camera (opens faster, captures faster) specially for the photo modes such as Night or Panaromic…

        YMMV

        I got the X3 Pro because I wanted to escape OLED burn in from last phones… And Preferred the extra speed..

        • Jenny Death on 26/09/2021 - 12:36

          You sure? The note 10 pro has the 108mp camera, not the 64mp

          • OpayuOnam on 26/09/2021 - 12:57

            @Jenny Death: I was referring to the rest of the HW, and not the camera module it self.
            The reality of modern phone photography is it's mostly software processing… And that 108mp is likely faux anyways, most probably it's a quad Bayern pattern which you'll have to divide by 4 to get real MP…

            I hate to imagine how much slower processing 108mp is going to be, given I don't see a dedicated DSP module on these cheaper phones.

            Quick look on GSMarena seems to confirm this that all 3 phones have similar photo output in low light, if anything X3 NFC has a tiny edge and that's probably due to 16MP output instead of 12MP:
            https://m.gsmarena.com/piccmp.php3?idType=5&idPhone1=10802&i…

            No one would be shooting native res on these sensors and the output is just not good enough (too much noise and too mushy usually).

  • Bretttick on 25/09/2021 - 20:03

    I got the 8/256 for extra $10-15 a while back.

    Why the price gone up, I don't believe the chip shortage BS.

    Maybe due to evergrande

    • Pacify on 26/09/2021 - 18:26

      I don't believe the chip shortage BS.

      Lmao. I work at a car dealer, there's such a shortage that the car manufacturers are trying to sell (at a small discount) cars without the chips in them to dealerships, and then the chip will be installed at the dealership when they are in stock again

      But yeah, no chip shortage btw

    This is a bloody good phone. The battery can lasts me two days if I forget to charge. Really quick phone, no performance lost because of the lower price imo. My partner wants me to upgrade, but I honestly can't find a reason to change.

    • Nalar on 05/10/2021 - 08:13

      What is the screen like when outdoors? I p-lay a lot of Pokemon Go, is the screen bright enough to see in direct sunlight?

      • sir_bazz on 05/10/2021 - 14:59

        I'm using a Redmi Note 9 Pro which is rated at around 430 nits and it's fine for Pogo.
        It can go higher when set to auto brightness at around 460 nits but the obvious trade off is battery use. It comes in handy when wearing dark sunnies though.

        The Poco X3 Pro is rated at 450 nits so should be even brighter than the Note 9 Pro. You shouldn't have any problem with the screen outdoors.

        • Nalar on 05/10/2021 - 16:44

          Cool thanks, guess it make the choice between this and Note 10 Pro a little easier.

    Is this phone fine to run as-is or is it so full of bloatware and apps which might cause privacy concerns that it really needs a custom ROM to optimise? Coming from an Oppo A52, which has problems sending a simple SMS quite often, these specs look really good and I expect the phone can do a better job of sending SMS!

    If I am looking for a low maintenance, fairly high spec and working phone, is this the one?

    • HeyPapito on 26/09/2021 - 18:53

    I assume there is no warranty with these guys? My father in-law needs a phone for $300-$400 and there are NO DEALS around right now.. Would prefer Australian stock for warranty.

    Great phone!

    Pros:

    • Huge battery, easily lasts all week.
    • Charges really quick (using the supplied charger).
    • Comes with an AU power adapter.
    • Comes with a very grippy transparent protection case.
    • Amazing performance.
    • Loud, crisp, high-quality stereo speakers.
    • Big, bright and vivid screen.
    • Great slow motion video recording.
    • Excellent, no-fuss fast wi-fi connecting.
    • BangGood delivery was very fast (within two weeks).

    Con:

    • The vibration on silent mode is extremely soft. I end up missing a few calls because of it, even when it's sitting on my desk in plain sight. I can't seem to find any setting to increase it.

    Otherwise, I highly recommend it.

    • AlienC on 29/09/2021 - 15:52

        I bought mine from HK on Oct 10. Hasn’t arrived yet, hopefully over the next seven days. It was about $30 cheaper at the time but if I’d waited a few days the price would have been about the same to order from the AU store. Lesson learned.

The shipping date for me was apparently 14 October and there’s been radio silence since then. The tracking number for Aramex isn’t finding any records so I can only assume it’s not in Australia yet.
