Is it a wishful thinking that the non-pro version will costs around RM1.5k below?

I understand the Pro version can go up to 2k+ but seems to me that the non-Pro version is considered enough for an average gamer like me.

RM1699 price tag is very lucrative for that spec.

But I can only buy it next month sad.gif

So is it wishful thinking that there will be more F3 stock in May and not by pre-order? I prefer physical purchases instead of doing online purchase, based on what horror time of waiting for it to be shipped for China/HK.

Seems like Lazada is having a 2nd round of Poco F3 sales for 5.5.

So for those who missed out the first round, this is the chance to get the early bird price.

I hope I'm fast enough to place order.

Any protips? I rarely buy flash sales on Lazada/Shopee nowadays.

I gave up trying to buy during flash sales, sigh.

I rather wait for my local shop starts having stock for it, whenever that is.

I don't mind paying the non discounted price for the phone,maybe after Raya or next month.

Meh, I gave up waiting and bought the 8/256 variant yesterday, not at the discounted price because that one got sold out even before the 7.7 sales.

Now patiently waiting for 10~12 days of delivery.

Lazada. I checked a few minutes late after 12 am, sold out already.

So I bought it from another shop on Lazada, no discount though.

You still can cancel if the seller haven't packed you parcel yet.

Unfortunately, my order was already packed and deliver to the courier, based on the Lazada app status.

Better screenshot of your shopee/lazada/others order detail (with delivered date), save in phone and cloud.

I read some reviews on Lazada and Shopee buyers that they didn't get the receipt from the seller, is this true for those who bought it earlier?

QUOTE(kenzofai @ Jul 8 2021, 12:47 AM)
After placed order, don't think about the promotion price again, since hard to grab it within a minute.
I bought on June 8th, also can't get on 6.6, and don't want wait 7.7 but after that 6.18 had another promotion, damn!

Buy early, enjoy early!
But pray hard that parcel not stuck in courier transit / hub center due to disinfection. My phone was delayed 1 week for this.

You're right, I stop caring about saving RM200 for the flash sales every month after the last 6.6 sales.

Now that I already ordered it, just wait for it to be delivered. rclxm9.gif

Got my F3 2 days ago, so far so good but one complain is that the battery is easily drained after a few gaming sessions.

Should I only charge when its low 20 and max 80 percent?

Any recommendation for power bank to use with f3?

I usually play games at home, so charging is a non-issue.

Now that I have to work outside, a backup power is surely needed.

Just search memory extension at settings.

Damn it happened again.

Need to do proper reboot to stop reboot loop
*
Ok now that you mentioned it, today my phone suddenly reboot itself , repeatedly.

Edit: This Enhanced Edition update royally screw up the phone.

I can't adjust the brightness manually using the slider, the brightness stay the same no matter what. I can't even turn off the phone because it will only boot itself again. Locking the screen using Power buttons or Sleep settings only triggers the reboot loop.

Is there a way to downgrade back to 12.5.2.0?

Edit #2: This is my log, after reading the same issue at the official Poco community forum.

Follow up about my reboot loop.

Spend a few hours searching poco forums and reddit, plus talking with poco support, I manage to stop the reboot loop by manual restart.

Power + vol up until poco logo appears, then everything is fine now.

There will be a new update on 15th September via OTA to fix the reboot issue.

Hopefully it won't break other functions of the phone *cross fingers*
