READ MORE!!!! Someone answered my prayers! The POCO M3 has finally gotten so thick with the 6,000 mAh battery that the camera module sticks out less than 1 mm from the housing!!! I have now recited 4 Our Fathers and 7 Hail Marys! :lol:
Three simple colours, no more! Black is for everyone, blue for a nice look, yellow for extra cool! although I'm leaning towards blue, but I might take a yellow one from a "good" POCO, it looks awesome too. Plus its leather effect back won't slip out of everyone's hands!
Can't complain about the screen, no need to bash the LCD, small money, small screen! At 6.53″ in diameter, it's not a small phone, but it has a pretty good resolution, although not a Mi 10T Pro, but it's just the right quality.
The POCO M3 won't really feature in DXOMARK's list, although it has Sony's 48 MP sensor as its main camera, which has been proven many times, its 2 MP macro is only worth something in skilled hands and its depth of field is just a whimper...
Now that's what I like! The 6.000 mAh battery is enough for everything, compared to my Mi 9 SE 3.070, it's a lot of money if it lasts me 1 day, with this iron the POCO M3, maybe 3 days.
Oh my goodness! How much is the new POCO?
Well, shit! I would pay that much for a "low-end" phone in 2020!
- POCO M3 4/64 GB - 149 $ ~ 45.330 Ft
- POCO M3 4/128 GB - 169 $ ~ 51.410 Ft
That's what the phone costs outside! But how much will it cost here? Of course it's not that cheap! You can already buy it from POCO official Aliexpress reseller for double the price! Pfffmaa
But everyone should hold off on shopping, because Black Friday is coming up on Friday, and to celebrate, they're knocking 20 bucks off the price of the phone, which you can get at the above stores. I'm really itching to hit the buy button... for a parent, child, or just for yourself to have a cheap, good phone.
