Still worth it for RM1299 (8GBB + 256GB Storage) variant.

I've compared with many other phones just launched this year and you're still getting subpar performance if compared to Poco F3.

Example, Redmi Note 11 Pro cost around RM1499 but performance is still easily 40-50% slower than the F3.

Where to get that price?

If anyone is planning to update their F3 to MIUI, you may consider to hold it off first for the time being. I've receive the update today and now the phone restarts every time when i unlock to get into the home screen.

Not sure what went wrong. i'm trying to re-install the OS through pc and see how it goes. Hopefully i do not need to do a factory reset.

Btw, my rom was the global version rom 13.0.2.0 SKHMIXM

Hi guys, it seems like the latest stock global rom for poco f3 drains lots of battery and phone generating lots of heat when playing ML. Considering to unlock the bootloader and flash with custom rom. Mind if i ask here any of you guys currently using custom rom which bug free and have good battery life for daily use?
*
I am on PixelOS now... feel more clean without MIUI software around, can give it a try. Battery is good enough but do have some small bug... BTW android 13 version is coming in custom rom but don't dare to go forward as there are still many bugs that need to iron out.

Any how, if your don't like custom rom after using them, you still can go back to MIUI, don't worry. As for me, I still prefer custom rom that are light.... Enjoy flashing.

anyone knows about this bug? 
my gf using poco f3, main sim is digi, second sim is for data, yes 4g. 
2 days ago her phone restarted itself, then the yes sim doesnt work, and there's a persistent R logo beside the bar. i check and apparently its roaming, but she didnt turn on roaming, in the setting roaming was set to never, but she just couldnt use the internet. even after restarting and swapping sim cards its still the same. seems to only happen to the yes data sim. then i check online and ask her to change roaming to always, since then she can use the internet, but the R is still there permanently. anyone have this issue? now her phone keeps on rebooting once in a while, one day happen at least 5 to 6 times.

This normally symptoms of main board issue already, get ready to buy a new phone or change main board.

How to get rid of the MIUI default "getapps" in MIUI 14? Its kinda annoying by popping and asking to update apps.

Uh oh constant reboots? Hopefully it's not caused by MiUi 14. Doesn't sound good. My F3 is still fine, I'm just waiting MiUi 14 OTA update.

update on this. after updated to MIUI14, the whole day it doesn't reboot, until now when she went to office and i think connected to office wifi? (she was at office door) then it rebooted. and the roaming icon which is still persistent, now the yes itself cant be use again. i check back with her and it seems the reboot only happens when the yes sim is on, when she turn the sim off the phone itself is fine. is the sim / signal or something having bug, causes the phone to reboot?
*
You already change the YES sim card before right? If that the case, it still fall back to main board issue. If you want to further test, can try other telco sim to check whether your issue still occur.
