Will the edge has halo effect problem? Since it has no black frame.

Thanks! May I know the edge got 2.5D curve? Or it will be too sharp to cut finger.

soulseeker6187 answered your questions.
It comes a gel-like stick to eliminate those edges issues. But, I didn't use it because it doesn't look like there's any white line at edge.

guys, seems latest update bring too much issue for f3, no?
thinking to stick with pre-installed fw and avoid updates. is it safe?
do updates bring more good than harm?

The pre-install miui 12.0.2 has battery draining issues during phone idle as well as some bugs.
To me, miui 12.5.1 is the smoother one as of now.

Thanks. Prrof of purchase needed? Coz lazada didnt email me any..

You may call Lazada helpline or live chat via Lazada app to request for the invoice.
Since this phone was launched not long, usually they will use the phone serial number to check manufacturer date if you don’t have invoice/proof of purchase.

Do we need to register the warranty for the phone online? Any e-warranty registration required?
*
No, just walk-in with the problematic phone.
Warranty will be based on purchase date on invoice. Otherwise, it’ll be based on manufacturing date by checking S/N.

Anyone having this issue where the sim card is not detected? I think this happened 2 3 times already

I uses dual SIMs since day 1 and no SIMs issues to date. It shows dual VoLTE or VoWiFi when on WiFi, but I normally switch less-using SIM to 2G only network to save battery.
Probably, you need to reset your phone or worst case would be walking in to Xiaomi Service Center.

Hydrogel Screen Protector seems to be nicer and better compared to any tempered glass SP because it's thinner, non-crackable, covered more area of the phone without black edges.
Has anyone used it and may share his/her view?

Buy 2 or 3 since installation is a bit tricky. My first one was for testing and aligning it was hard. Installed the 2nd one perfectly.
*
Successfully installed with 1pc although I bought a second as backup and it was a bit hard to align the SP with the screen. Like the description says, it's self-healing and it looks nicer after a few days. However, it still attracts a lot of fingerprints which makes the screen kinda oily.
Anyway, I like it cause it fully covers the screen with no black edges or hollow effects.

Whatever MIUI versions are actually somewhat buggy.

How was the screen protector? Good and smooth?
*
Hydrogel Screen Protector: Good
1) fully covered the phone with no black edges.
2) It is smoother than those cheap tempered glass SP (TGSP), but ibywind TGSP feels smoother just not full coverage.
3) It's not crackable.
4) no halo effects at edges. This kind of SP is designated for curved screen, so flat screen is not an issue.
5) It's thinner which makes the phone a gram or more lighter compared to TGSP.

The bad:
1) a bit tricky to installed due to alignment difficulty.
2) still get minor smudges like cheap TGSP unless you choose matte one.

https://s.lazada.com.my/s.dWUuX
This one should be much easier to align but the delivery may take some time since it's from China.

If you ask me now:
Q: Will you choose hydrogel SP or tempered glass SP for your current/next phone?
A: I prefer hydrogel SP for the time being.
Reason: tempered glass SP might get cracked for dropping/hitting something or unknown reasons.

1) cant find it at all. On the call app >menu at top right>Call Setting > dont have call recording option at all.

If you’re using MIUI global rom, there’s no ‘call recording’ because it’s using google dailer.
kenzofai is using MIUI EU rom, that’s the reason his phone has call recording in call setting.

Any recommended tempered glass? finally used my second piece of ibdywin
https://shopee.com.my/Ibywind-Poco-F3-Redmi...5535.9537580546

Really quite good so far. Want see got any other option. The anti-fingerprint coating on its quite good if not broke my first piece also wont change haha

I may suggest you Hydrogel Screen Protector, but if you insist on tempered glass SP, then you may try the SmartDevil other than IBYWIND.

Reason for Hydrogel SP as I've posted earlier, you may read HERE.

It shows “Mi Turbo Charge” on my Poco F3 when charging using this Baseus 65w Gan Charger.

Baseus product surprisingly versatile. I have a Aukey 74.5w can only detect quick charge.

Baseus cables the led type 5a40w capable of mi turbo(xioami/poco) and warp charge (oneplus). It only cost 1/3 of original warp cables.
*
Well, previously it showed only “Quick Charge” and never changed, so took around 70~80 minutes to full from 20%.

I just noticed a few days back, and tested again yesterday that it showed “Quick Charge” at first, then changed to “Mi Turbo Charge” after two or three seconds, took around 50~60 minutes to full from 19%.
As for the cable, I use the one it came bundled with the Baseus charger and hence, not sure the wattage capability. FYI, it’s a type-C to type-C at 1.5 cable.
My guesses, probably after the updated phone (v12.5.4) that it gets more compatible with other brand chargers.
