RIP screen, used Dettol wet tissue to "disinfect phone" after lending it to a coughing coworker.

Multiple green vertical lines on screen. Lesson learnt, luckily still can use and no ghost touch.

wow... didn't realise these things can be deadly to phone screen.

but yeah, usually i have TG SP, so wipe with soap, etc... never really touch the actual screen... so never realised this.

thanks for sharing

This is supposedly the last major update for the F3, here's hoping they still give another since F4 is almost identical

Xiaomi doesn't particularly support phones as long as Apple or Samsung does. If I recall correctly, the duration of support for phones that are budget oriented (i.e. Redmi and Poco) are 2 major OS updates and 3-4? years of security updates.

Poco F3 started with MIUI 12 on Android 11, then last year we had MIUI 13 on Android 12. Now the latest will be MIUI 14 on Android 13 which is the second major OS update. Fingers crossed for another year on Android 14.

It will be a few more years before Google stop supporting the older Android firmware. Like right now Android 10-13 are still supported. So if Poco F3 only get up to 13 maybe by 2026 before you force to change phone.

i would say almost same except for the brightness cant compare with amoled and the backlight bleed( which is normal for LCD). better to use amoled on dark room.
while under hot sun, i havent test yet . the review said amoled will perform much better than LCD. suppose to be so since spec also said the brightness is lower than amoled
last time i also scared because it use LCD instead of amoled. i already like amoled on F3 but if i go to LCD, seem like downgrade.
most review i found also they said this is the best LCD for a phone. well, most phone now came with amoled. so far i use it. seem good. except those 2 items i mentioned above.

isnt the F3 unofficially rated for IP53, meaning dust and splash resistant?

wonder how can dettol wet tissue harm it.

anyway, if you want to get it changed at least not that expensive. around 300~400 only officially at SC

The F3 does not have official IP ratings but it does have water resistant measures (rubber seals in SIM card and charging slot, wire mesh in speakers and microphones).

I'm guessing he does not have any screen protector installed but even then it's odd that wet tissues can damage the screen since it's more like moist than actually dripping wet.

I wonder if there was any cracks in the screen thus causing the solution of the wet wipes to seep in and kill the display?
