Summary Poco M3

The Poco M3 is a budget smartphone that costs less than Rs.15,000. It sports a 6.53-inch display that is full-HD+ that has a dewdrop notch on the top. It also has an integrated fingerprint scanner on the side as well as stereo speakers as well as an IR emitter for controlling appliances. The smartphone comes with three cameras at the rear. It’s well-designed and appears much more expensive than what it actually costs. The back panel is a textured surface that keeps fingerprints out.

The phone runs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 processor that comes with six GB of memory. Two storage choices are available, 128GB and 64GB. It can be expanded with an integrated microSD card slot and supports cards with capacities of up to 512GB. It comes with a mAh battery of 6000mA which is quite adequate for the price. It is compatible with 18W charging and comes with the 22.5W charger included in the box.

It is a great device. Poco M3 is capable of managing day-to-day tasks, and the battery was able to last for a full day and an hour and a half. The massive battery helps in the longevity of the battery, but it takes more than two hours to fully charge fully. The RAM is 6GB, so available, it can multitask effortlessly. You can play all games, however, with more intense games, the device can become warm to the point of. There’s a 48-megapixel main camera, as well as a macro camera, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor with the Poco M3. The camera’s performance was average in general, and the phone was able to take decent images in daylight, but the low-light performance was not impressive. It’s worth noting that the Poco M3 does click better photographs when it has a Night mode, however, it takes approximately 4 seconds to snap the shot.
