BTW china k40 already got 12.5.

hopefully global version will rollout soon

Global rollout will be on May/June.

Hope so.
But the funniest part is EU is getting 12.0.5 whereas Global still around .3.
😆😆😆

Funny thing is Global 12.0.3 update = EU 12.0.5 update.

There is a bug with this cleaner app. Had the same issue after I factory reset my phone. Since, it's suddenly not working after factory reset, then I just reset one more time. It's working again now. Anyway, good information you found there to resolve the issue.

Mean need to click add to cart / buy 12am right? If put early in cart then click checkout after 12am will not get promo price?
*
Some of it has stock available now. You can add it to your cart. On 5.5 just make sure the price change to discounted price before make payment. Last time seller didn’t add the stock before sale start hence we can only add to wishlist.

Hi guys, I would like to ask how can we enable the side app? The one during gaming where you can toggle out other apps to attend e.g. whatsapp, facebook.

Go to Settings > Special features > Game Turbo. Enable/customize the settings there.

Poco F3 - Lazada

QUOTE(Tokik Siwok @ May 2 2021, 01:33 PM)
Hi poco f3 users, im considering to get a 6gb poco f3 this coming 5.5 sale. Currently im using google pixel 2

Want to ask
1. How common is the green tint issue and is it really noticeable? Can claim warranty?
2. Heard most reviews mentioned the camera is pretty bad, is it still acceptable for occasional photo taking since i personally dont take much photos?
3. 6gb vs 8gb ram. Is 6gb smooth enough for social media usage and light gaming? i dont play heavy games like genshin, pubg, ML.

Hopefully some owners here can share the experience.
*
1. Best if you don't check it when you get the phone. You won't notice it. If you start to check then you might get bother with it. BTW, it only noticable in low brightness settings with grey background. Not sure if can claim warranty since this affect all phones that used AMOLED screen including iPhone, Samsung, One Plus, etc..

2.Camera is good. It's not bad. You can check few people posted awesome picture captured with this phone. If you more into photography, you might need to consider other phone. Else for normal user, camera is good enough already.

3. 6GB is enough for social media and light gaming is enough already. But if you have extra budget, I would suggest you to get the 8GB/256GB variant. If budget limited, 6GB variant should be fine too.


If anyone would like to buy Poco F3, try to get it from Shopee as most of them received it in 5 days from China for peninsular and 7 days for Sabah/Sarawak. As for my experience, I never had issue with LEX, except for my Poco F3 order. Most of item order from China received within 1 week.

Hi can we send back for warranty on the greenish screen?

Not sure about this. Need to check with Xiaomi service center. IINM in future they will release software update that make the greenish tint less noticable.

Anyone got ask poco/xiaomi if we allowed to unlock bootloader and root the phone and install that custom eu rom whether it voids the warranty? I remmeber last time ppl said no issue. I email to get clarification. 1 unlock bootloader 2 root the phone (forgot ask custom rom). In return they give me the type response that has nothing to do what I asked.

I don't think unlocking bootloader for Xiaomi phone will void warranty. After all, they also provide guide on how to unlock bootloader, recovery ROM & fastboot ROM.

QUOTE(Thrust @ May 3 2021, 05:59 PM)
Want to check with you guys.. how come every morning, I need to key in my 6 digit password instead of unlocking using my fingerprint? It does that every morning before I can continue using fingerprint to unlock.

The phone did no reboot as the uptime had clocked in > 100 hours.
*
Trying rebooting the phone once and monitor it.

I do have VoLTE but my Telco does not support wifi calling. When connected to wifi, VoLTE icon disappeared. If I turn off wifi, VoLTE icon will appear.

You can send to Xiaomi service center to fix it. According to one of the forumer, they just fix something on the proximity sensor. Probably reflash the firmware. Not so sure about it.

Guys as of now on Lazada the 8/256gb option still out of stock, does this mean that I will not be able to get the 5.5 promo sale price?

Try to check again later today at 12.00a.m. as they might restock it. Also, try check at Shopee as well.
