X3 pro also includes an edge-mounted fingerprint sensor. And down below Also got that fan-favorite the headphone jack got space for two sims in there otherwise that second slot can be used for micro sd memory cards instead.

On the Poco x3 Pro you’ve got either 128 or 256 gigs depending on how much cash you throw at Poco and it’s UFS 3.1 as well which is great to see.

you can grab the Poco x3 Pro in three different colors: frost blue, phantom black, and metal bronze.

OS

X3 pro got the latest freshest android 11. With a bit of Poco launcher action as well looks mostly like stock android. Until you sort of dive into the settings and that’s where you start to see the MIUI style.

Unique Features

X3 Pro also got the bonus features like game turbo and video toolbox are present and the correct video toolbox. It is particularly great if you’re watching something on YouTube like a podcast or something. Where you don’t need the video you just want the audio.

Display

Gaming

As with all MIUI devices you’ve got that excellent game turbo a menu that you can just drag on the screen. it’s good news for gamers because there are zero issues running call of duty mobile on those top detail settings with the fastest possible frame rate as well you got that Adreno 640 GPU that deals with all that shenanigans. And even if you’re going to be playing for a while no worries there because you’ve got that liquid cool tick which is a bit of copper heat pipe.

Battery

When it comes to the battery Poco x3 pro sports a 5160MAH with that 33-watt fast charge and that battery should keep you going all day long.
