this is best feature and they abandoned it
use smart watch or band.
im using huawei band 6, the watch almost perfect except it didnt support emoji and didnt sync to google fit.
mi band 6 is another alternative.

It's 2022 bro.
Enable AOD (Always-on Display) in settings.

One of the best feature using OLED panel. It cost very little battery.
It won't burn your screen because the AOD moves every few seconds pixel by pixel.

QUOTE(lambox105 @ Apr 30 2022, 09:54 AM)
LED costs money to manufacturers
Since AOD technology saves them money (and actually saves battery life if AMOLED), they decided to remove them altogether.
Heck, there is even no LEDs (AFAIK) for cheap cheap phones (low end phones)

INB4 cheap no good good no cheap

why are you all telling me something i know? lmao

i was just answering the other person.

Dear F3 user,

I got doubts in mind to be clear before decide to get one F3  hmm.gif , my questions as per following, need your advice here.
1) does the screen turn dim (turn off) while answering call by put it near to ear/face?

2) does the stock dailer support "call recording" function?

3) does the phone support "double tap to wake screen"?
Thanks.  notworthy.gif
*
1) yes it does, but dont expect it to be like traditional proximity sensor sharpness. it still works but just need to do a bit of adjustment to get used to it. you will know once you started using it..

2) yes it does, but will come out warning that the other party can hear the call is being recorded when you start recording. Very good feature to scare scammers away i must say.. But if you want curi2 record call then cannot

3) yes. that is what i use. never once touch power button except to restart/turn off.

What is vowifi?
Did u use vowifi on ur poco f3?
Does telco charge u for this features?

volte = voice over LTE
vowifi = voice over WiFi.

VOLTE/VOWIFI = calls wont drop data anymore.. without it, previously when a call comes in your data will not be available.

My mom Mi8 SE screen just died. Thinking to get this and give me F1 to her. The F1 still my daily driver from day1, working fine and battery still good ntg else to complain.

I have few questions, I hope can get some feedback from you guys.

1. right now I see it selling at 1099. The lowest price it get during promotion is RM999 for 128G 6g ram? If yes thinking maybe get it during 6.6 if at this price.

2. Which seller do you guys recommend at shopee/lazada? Because it's pretty weird, I don't see official store from shopee/laz. Only can see the seller called switchsolution selling at, RM1099.

3. Does this phone require waiting time if I want to unlock bootloader and root it? I rmb Poco F1 I need to wait for a week in order to unlock the bootloader.

4. How's the battery life for normal usage without gaming?

5. Beside the headphone jack is missing, anything else is missing from this phone compare to F1?
*
it is quite hard to get 256/8 now.. mostly selling 128/6 only.. recommend to get 256/8 for the storage size.. but if 128 is not an issue can get that also la since 256/8 mostly out of stock..

there is. in fact there is 2 official poco stores on lazada. one is shipment from KL the other shipment from HK/China..

need 1 week to unlock bootloader.

Battery life is great for non-gaming, can last whole day easily. Also 33w fast charging can topup juice in under 1 hour. or get 60% in 1/2 hour..

Thx for ur feedback. I think 128gb and 6g ram is enuff for me. Because I still have 30gb left on my f1.

Which shop is the official one at shopee or laz? Can't find it.

Does this phone support auto brightness? Because I only see the front camera and no sensor on it.
*
yes theres a light sensor on the top right corner of the phone, its blended in with the top black bezel which is already very small.. on a bright sunny day when you put your phone under the sun and look for it, you can see the cutout for it under the glass

its called poco.os on shopee..

for laz its:

https://www.lazada.com.my/shop/poco-official-global-store/ = ship from china/hk

https://www.lazada.com.my/shop/poco-authorised-store/ = ship from kl, usually stock not as much as the above 1

128gb is already double what I have from F1, I think really enough for me usage and not to forget 256 8Gb selling at 1.4k i think too expensive.
Other than that, is the green tint issue serious? saw some ppl complain about green tint issue on the review.

Side note: I just check with poco.os from shopee, they said they will be a promotion on 6.6
But they ship from oversea hmm..
*
brudder. you know Poco what country company or not?

all the stock is from china la obviously... whats the issue if ship from oversea? Its still international set with MY warranty.. doh.gif doh.gif

I understand the spec is awesome, after some digging, I can see ppl getting pretty good price during 4.4 promo at around 1.1k.
Since this phone release for more than 1 year, Im expecting lower msrp. Will wait 6.6 and see what poco offer hehe.
Chill bro. I know is china brand, i rmb my F1 was ship locally. Oversea shipping means it takes longer.
*
thats why i gave you two official laz stores..

one ships from KL and the other from China doh.gif doh.gif

and also, if you talk about oversea shipping taking longer, but you dont mind to wait for 6.6 which is more than 1 week from now? Even oversea shipping also can get it around 1 week.. rclxub.gif rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

Haha, those who triggered over a phone is really sensitive.
Some even said it's just mild inconvenience in most.
Maybe they are living in 2077 using the phone differently.

QUOTE(Rainings @ Jun 22 2022, 09:30 AM)
Ya pretty funny when I'm interested in f3, ask feedback in the forum not a single f3 user mention this issue. Maybe they are using the phone in next level that don't even call ppl anymore. Luckily I find out before pull the trigger.
*
Like I said earlier, it really is a mountain out of a mole hill you are making. And like other posters said is true, F3 owners the one using it daily dont even make noise about it yet you are here just surveying and making it like a deal breaker to get this phone.. But it not my problem and not my money, that's why I have not been replying you. If you feel all the specs the F3 comes in becomes not worth it because of this 1 thing then its your loss not mine. Me and other F3 owners happily enjoying the phone, and hell if we want to complain about bugs we have OTHER bugs that are MORE annoying than just this hill that you insist on dying on.

Yes the issue exists, but I can confidently say out of 10 calls i make, 8 or even 9 of it no issues. and the 1 time it happens, it is a very EASY quick fix of just shifting/tilting the phone slightly to get it detected.

Eventually you will learn how the phone's sensor behaves and you will know how to make calls or hear voice notes with/without triggering it purely through muscle memory.

EDIT: and as others have mentioned, on MIUI 13 update it seems the prox sensor issue fixed already. I have not updated to it because MIUI 13 doesn't have forced dark mode for apps. See, now THAT is more annoying.

i dont think Dolby vision is a must have features, and i can bet f4 n f3 using the same display panel,just the software that makes the difference

not like f3 need the extra cooling, it's stay cool most of the time, unless its snapdragon 8 gen 1

I'm comparing the 6gb model, but i do agree 256gb of f3 not on sells anymore

the x4 gt in the other hand is very decent, probably better choice than f4

It is the exact same E4 panel..

Wonder they got do anything bout the green tint or not...

Will adding cooling fan minimize the throttle while gaming? F4 GT user here. quite disappointed when gaming. But normal usage is extremely snappy. Ex Op 6T user.

Yes it would.

If you are a gamer, it is recommended to get the blackshark one.. pricy but worth it.

Or try youtube check recommendations and reviews
