I think you better off with other phone, like redmi note pro or Samsung equivalent

Poco is for gamer, unless your dad is a gamer.

can point me where Poco say Poco is for gamers only or its even a gaming phone?? Or you pluck it out of thin air? laugh.gif

In fact, any mention of games is always as a secondary thing and not mentioned as the primary..
So much for being a gamer phone huh or Poco very fail at marketing their "gaming" phone... rolleyes.gif

well that is for you.

your dad do basic boomer stuff right? like youtubing, whatapp, call, snap photo/video.

then he dont need SD870, a better camera from Redmi note Pro is probably more useful. Samsung A52 5G is snapdragon base, the reason Samsung is because their One UI is generally less buggy than MIUI.

Wow man is here being so short sighted and all. You fail to take into account having SD870 is good for longevity. This means in 3 years ++ doing and launching/opening those "boomer" stuff will still remain quick and snappy. Open mysejahtera check in still snappy not wait in line and hold up other people.. Same like my spare F1 now, its more than 3 years old but still snappy as heck.

Doing boomer stuff doesnt mean have to do it at boomer pace as well you know?

also F3 got big big amoled screen with 120hz, very good on the eyes for boomer to read news, scroll facebook or do other boomer stuffs too you know..

120hz doesnt mean the benefit for playing games only you know...

sincerely,
my 2 cents as non-gamer F3 user.
What a load of crap buddy.

Does this mean it is normal overheat this phone?
I am using miui 12.5.6
What does your statement mean? Can't charge due to overheat?
Miui 12 lower version is better?
*
play games on any phone with max settings for long will overheat..

if you get a good cooler you can enjoy your steady high fps for long long..

just check youtube for the reviews..

im no gamer, so i dont have one. just my observation from people's reviews regarding heat vs cooler.

Yes, it's was on vivid > default. Not sure if it's bluish, but it's not really white  biggrin.gif  Changing to cool had just a slight difference.
Changed it to original colour scheme made it more yellowish.
Trying to tweak the colours in advanced options to see if it helps.
Not sure if others here have the same issue.

google it, you are not alone.

could be few issues.

1) did you restore settings from previous phone? could be that it imported previous reading mode as well and need some other steps to access hidden setting to disable reading mode..

2) play around with the RGB slider.

the link above you can slowly go through and follow them to try and solve your issue

Hi guys,

Just got my Poco F3 today.
First time using an amoled phone. I noticed when i put my phone side by side with my old IPS LCD Redmi, the white on the F3 does not look as white as the LCD. A little yellowish and not as bright.
Reading mode is off.
May i know if it's normal for amoled? or if there's a way to fix or test the screen?
Thanks.

QUOTE(lucaswjk @ Apr 21 2022, 02:26 PM)
confirmed my side, i compared it to my f1 LCD and my s7+ AMOLED.
f3 is not as white
tried the color scheme too... the white is abit yellowish
not really a problem, coz it felt more natural~
*
First of all, if you come from LCD phone then yes AMOLED white is not as white as LCD, amoled white will be warmish/yellowish compared to LCD white..
AMOLED = true blacks, but white which is on the other end of the spectrum is not true white.
LCD = i consider it true white or very close to it, on the other hand black is not true black and often you get what is called backlight bleed, so blacks will be dark grey-ish sometimes.

and yes, if you google it, some people mention F3 white is yellowish, or rather towards "warm" type of white..

some say there is a hidden setting regarding reading mode that is enabled even if it shows in our Settings app that reading mode is turned off..
But i never bothered to check it cause it doesnt really bother me, to me the white is still acceptable and not too yellowish.

For those who cant tahan this warm-ish white, maybe you can try check this, do report back on how it goes cause im curious..

It's possible that reading mode from android itself is on, it's a hidden setting(on miui) that it's only accessible with something like activity launcher. If you are interested I can try finding it and tell you the steps to see. I had the same issue 2 years ago with mi 9T, where the screen was yellow and screen reading was off. I only found that it was android's native screen reading mode on in the background by trying everything. I disabled it by adb then.

Edit: I found the setting. Download Activity Launcher, open it and search for "NightDisplaySuggestion", open the option with the moon icon and check if its on. Hopefully it's on and by disabling it your problem is solved!

If it was on, also make sure it doesn't have a schedule.

This happened to me because I had restored the settings from another device.

wow r u life saver~ thanx god
i should have ask here sooner rather than google it myself.
i keep on searching for hide navigation, so dumb...

another question, do you know how to make the bluetooth speaker louder?
i forget where to set aldy~
i tried Bluetooth->(speaker)->Absolute volume
and Developer options->Disable absolute volume
both settings improve the volume abit, but it is still soft than my previous device~
*
i dont use bluetooth speaker as well. but for earphones soft volume change region to SG will make it louder..

you can try and see if it works..

F4 will have 870 (redmi k40s). It's basically an F3 with OIS & 67W charging, price should be around the same as current F3. There will also be an F4 Pro which is the K50 pro with dimensity 9000 😓 that one might hover around 1.6k - 1.8k

i doubt they will launch so many phones globally.

Last year we only got the F3 no F3 GT.

no ois still, they only "upgraded" the main camera from imx582 to imx686

they say they use imx686 the same sensor as the F2 Pro.

idk if F2 Pro had a good camera or not though... anyone got review or experience?

Dont go for F4 GT as sd8gen1 still has the same heating issues as sd888. TechTablets uploaded a review of the phone and during the gaming test, genshin impact crashed after only 38 minutes of playtime due to overheating lol. You can watch the review here: https://youtu.be/Q85iqOeb8lA

as expected

SD888 and 8Gen1...

thats why i said yesterday poco f3 for 1.1k gonna sell like hotcakes again soon.

SD870 still the most stable atm in terms of performance to heat ratio..

For the price of 1 f4 gt you can get 2 F3.. Kinda crazy when you think about it..

First of all you have to understand , Poco F4 GT have balanced and performance mode , if u going for performance mode , the phone won't drop frame and give u full power hence the phone will be overheat , if u look at bojio , it can't even run 3D mark as it didn't cut off the performance and cause overheat
if u take SD870 no matter poco f3 , realme gt neo2  , xiaomi 10T/Pro sd865 , 60fps graphic max for genshin impact, no overheat meh? also very hot ah , but to overcome this they have to drop the frame badly until 25-35fps....
In my opinion la , if u really a genshin impact lover , and wish to run the games at max setting with 60fps , either playing in Aircond room 20-25 with WIFI , or attach with a cooling fan.... even iphone13pro heating loh if u run at room temperature without aircond 28-30 ....because currently don't have a phone that can using Data 4G/5G with temp room 25-30 runing max 60fps within 10 minutes , not even ONE in this world.....Unless redmagic 7pro , Lenovo which have a Build in internal cooling fan .....

sometime dont judge by just a single video .....


*
F3 wont crash or overheat because they throttle FPS. If no heat = wont throttle

F4 GT straight crash because of overheat, cpu dont know throttle yet. If no heat = no crash.

so all in all in the end you are saying whatever phone whether F3 or F4 gt also will have heat issue and the only way to maintain stable constant 60fps for long gaming sessions is to play in front of a fan blowing direct you or better yet get a phone cooler ma..

so you can see why people holding back on F4 GT given its price is double of what you can get now which is F3. Because F3 also can get 60fps in a cool environment, so why pay double to do same thing..

Also many review came out and all not that favourable towards it as well.. When F3 came out also it had bugs and stuff but because F3 price was appropriate, so many could let it go given the pricing.. But F4 GT is releasing into the 2.5k mark locally BUT it is 600 EURO or 600+ USD yeah mind you.. So of course it will get scrutinized even more because it is encroaching into premium flagship territory...

Early days and needs software updates, yes i know..

Anyway curious who plan to buy it tonight at 12am release?
