The Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC is all about value, like every Poco handset before it and almost every Xiaomi device.
But the strategy has changed since 2018’s Pocophone F1. The Poco X3 doesn’t come with a top-tier Snapdragon 8-series processor,
because fitting one into a budget phone just doesn’t seem feasible anymore.
However, the end result is similar. The Poco X3 NFC is probably the best phone for gaming at its price. It has a large,
well-specced screen, loud stereo speakers, and its Qualcomm Snapdragon 732G processor handles titles such as Fortnite far better
than the Snapdragon 665 and Exynos 9611 phones you might buy for the same cash.
It’s simply miles ahead. Even Realme, maker of some of 2020’s best budget phones,
doesn’t have anything that can directly compete at launch. Excellent battery life and
a nerd-pleasing 120Hz display panel top off the Poco X3 sundae, and make this one of the best buys for techies on a tight budget.
There are a few bits to improve, however. Its screen has a situation-specific erratic backlight flicker,
which we believe should be fixable via a firmware update. The odd glitch suggests the Poco X3 NFC is due a system stability update, too.
