last 2 F series launch with latest top Snapdragon 8 series.
but F3 it launch with 870. slightly below the 888.

if I'm not mistaken
F1 launch at 1400++
F2 1700++
then F3 drop back the price but with slight below 888 processor.

personally im ok with it since 888 having heat issue.

Was there a F2 launched in Malaysia? I only recall F2 Pro which retails for 2199/2599 which was very bad value that time (only 60hz screen really?) hence I remembered it clearly tongue.gif If you ask me I personally think F3 has way better value than the F2 Pro as you are basically getting slightly better specs than F2 Pro at slightly more than half the RRP (Early bird price)

Just got my phone today and I can say its surprisingly light and slim compared to the X3 despite being close to 200g. Although bezels still abit thick but nothing to complain at this early bird price with RM100 lazada voucher discount drool.gif

Not sure if its me only but I cant seem to uninstall the bloatware games from the UI (drag to upper left to uninstall) Need go inside settings there to uninstall. And the included screen protector is like the X3 one which is not so smooth like dont have the oleophobic coating. May need to get a tempered glass one soon sweat.gif But I can say it feels way smoother than the X3 (for now at least)

For those that have their F3's, what are your overnight battery drain percentages? Mine seems pretty bad, not sure why lol
*
Mine drop 7% overnight with wifi and SIM card. not good but not bad feels like Samsung flagship phones overnight drop lol

Same here. After full charge only dropped 1% idling overnight. But after start using it in the morning, the battery dropping fast like yesterday.

Wow not bad mine still same 7-8% overnight.

Are you on 120hz? Feels to me the screen is not as power efficient as Samsung flagship phones (probably due to no VRR?) You can definitely drain this phone in 1day of usage

Yes 120hz. The screen and the speed are what I like the most about this phone.

It's weird that last night 6 hours idling only dropped 1%, but now it steadily drops ~3% per hour even though I barely used it.

Let me change to 60hz and see if it helps.

Did you leave wifi on overnight?

Guys, I know is abit not fair to compare but if F3 compare to Redmi Note 10 Pro. Any input?
*
I don't have the Note 10 Pro but I have the X3 with the same chipset and I can say the F3 destroys the 732G anytime. It just feels way snappier and feels more like flagship performance. X3 still laggy at times when launching apps those. I can say the 732G is not even close to upper midrange chipset so its a big difference
