No issue with WhatsApp audio. Try to check your internet connection.

Are we able to use the Poco F3 NFC contactless payment by configuring our credit card into the phone's contactless payment?
*
Sadly I don't think there are no more NFC payment provider in Malaysia beside Samsung Pay. Maybank Pay and CIMB Pay close shop already. Google Pay not available here yet. Samsung Pay only support selected Samsung device.

For me, I used Samsung Gear Pay for NFC payment. Very useful when forgot to bring wallet and can just pay using smart watch.

I saw in the phone there's defaulted GrabPay but can't seem to configure it.
*
Grab Pay only support QR code payment. This is mainly because Apple blocked 3rd party provider to use NFC payment, therefore all the E-wallet provider use the QR code method for payment for compability between Android & iOS.

just asking, anyone here play pubg mobile on poco f3? do you guys get 90fps setting? mine havent got..
*
Poco F3 only have 60/120Hz settings. If you want to try 90Hz, you can download SetEdit from Google Play and manually set to 90Hz.

QUOTE(Tokik Siwok @ May 6 2021, 01:43 PM)
I've ordered a white 6gb model +ibywind TG + ringke case yesterday.

Anything that I should check and do once I received the phone?
*
Straight away update the phone to 12.0.3 to fix the battery drain issue and enjoy the Dolby Atmos sound.

Ugreen vs Vention ,
Which brand is better ?
*
Both should be good. Haven't try Vention yet so can't comment on it. But for ugreen product, I'm satisfied with the price/quality. Even their cheap iPhone cable are MFI certified. Been using it for few years already and don't have issue. I even use their GaN charger for my laptop due to space saving and just need 1 charger to charge my laptop/iPhone/android phone.

QUOTE(lazyman@home @ May 6 2021, 06:02 PM)
I do agree the pubg game play on poco f3 is good. Just that wanna try out 90fps. I go have realme x2 pro that can do 90fps on pubg, but at extreme low brightness, which is barely playable. Turns out only 60fps although setting is 90.
I do think that Poco haven't optimized for this game yet. Maybe in next few updates of either poco or pubg, it can do 90. What to do, wait only.
The battery drain I can't comment as I haven't actually start using the phone as daily driver
*
Battery drain seem to be fixed on the latest firmware. I managed to clocked 9 hours SoT but no gaming on it. Just use it for browsing, online shopping, calls, WhatsApp, FB, YouTube.

For Poco F3 do you guys uses 3A cable or 5A cable?
*
I bought the 5A cable because it support up to 40W. Mi turbo charge works at 33W.

QUOTE(Kelvin1_1 @ May 7 2021, 09:24 PM)
Ugreen does not reply my message, usually takes 1 day to reply. I dint know their customer services is so bad ??
But ugreen product is good? no defect or anything ?
*
For me the quality is good. Usually I bought the braided cable type and all the products I bought from them haven't broken yet so far. It feel premium but with cheaper price. U can buy 1pc if having issue to trust their product. After all, the price not so expensive.

The 5A cable pair with the original poco f3 charger or a ugreen charger of 18W???
Do you need a fast charging cable like 5A to support the mi turbo charge at 33W ?? The 3A does not charge at 33W ?

I bought one, and it seem the cable is kinda hard to pull out when it is inserted on the phone.
*
QUOTE(Kelvin1_1 @ May 8 2021, 12:59 AM)
btw for the type c cable that came with the poco f3 , anyone knows what is the ampere ? as in 3A or 5A ?? :thinking:
*
Technically 3A cable should be sufficient for Mi turbo charge as it work at 11V/3A. I bought the 5A cable earlier before the phone arrived since I do not know how the charger work at that time.

My cable would lock nicely into the phone USB port, and to pull it out also not so hard. The cable would not simply disconnected like some of other brand cable.

I used the type c QC3.0 charger from ugreen, I need a little force to push it in the poco f3, and when pulling it out, I need to exert quite alot of force as compared to the stock charger.
So I not sure whether is my phone charging port problem or ugreen one ?
for the QC 3.0 charger from ugreen, is it usb 3.0 or 2.0 ?? As for data transfer wise.
Kualaa and Basue or even Vention type c cable is good ?
*
Try to use your cable with other typee-c decide and see how it feel. It's the same or not then only can judge.

Quick charge and USB 2.0/3.x is two different thing. One is for charging rate and the other is for data transfer rate.

To differentiate between USB 2.0 or 3.x cable, check at the USB-A male end. USB 2.0 will be in black colour and USB 3.x will be in few colour. Refer to below colour code and description. This is the color code standard use to differentiate between USB 1.0/2.0/3.x. Sometimes, there are manufacturer that does not follow this standard.

Also, for cable with USB-C on both end, mostly it is USB 3.1.

owai.

really looking for this f3 for quite sometime already. since my note 9 screen is cracked and quoted 900 to replace.

and i missed the 5.5 sale.. looking for 8gb version that time..

my ques is. is it big different from usage from 6gb to 8gb version?
*
Normal usage should be not much different. Always has around 5GB of unused RAM. So, 6GB should be sufficient.

Get ready to see a lot of "exclusive" software features in POCO UI — coming later in 2021.

Ng says bringing differentiated software features is one of the goals for 2021. "We are going to add some special features to make MIUI for POCO into a more exclusive look for our customers. It will still be based on MIUI's codebase, but we're looking at exclusive features for the upgraded interface. We are still collecting a lot of feedback from our community and social media on what they would like to change." The new interface could be dubbed POCO UI, with a launch slated for sometime by the end of 2021.

Ng noted that POCO could create its own interface from scratch if it gains more market share globally, but at the moment, it is not feasible. I asked Ng whether POCO would launch a phone running Android One — Xiaomi released three devices in collaboration with Google — but that isn't a direction that POCO is considering at the moment. Sorry, Android One fans.

Ng acknowledged that software is not POCO's "number one strength" from a product point of view but mentioned that the company is looking to improve upon it and that it is "one of the biggest areas of focus" internally. Although there isn't a definite timeline for the new features, Ng said that they would be debuting before the end of the year — the goal for POCO right now is to solicit feedback from its existing users.

It's proximity sensor issue. Will be fixed on next update. Someone suggest to put the phone flat to exit the black screen.

Hi guys. My AOD turned off after 5 minutes. Only happen recently, previously working fine. No settings were changed that I'm aware of. Any of you know anything bout this?

Didn't heard about this. Maybe try to restart your device if haven't done so in a while.

QUOTE(Kelvin1_1 @ May 20 2021, 11:03 AM)
Just now i just used my poco f3, then it hang, and it auto restart, anyone encounter this issue ?

Probably the auto reboot issue. Mine fixed after factory reset / latest update. Not sure which one fixed it.

I don't have issue with the EU plug but I do prefer to have UK plug.. this is because it's more secure and not easy to unplug if you accidentally hit the adapter. After all, manufacturer just want to save their cost.
