Know before you buy
The 120Hz refresh rate does consume more power than a standard 60Hz screen. However, the Poco X3 NFC features a large 5160mAh battery designed to handle this demand, allowing most users to comfortably get through a full day of moderate use.
Yes, the device includes built-in NFC functionality, which is fully compatible with Google Pay for secure, contactless payments at retail terminals.
This cooling system is designed to dissipate heat away from the processor during intensive tasks like gaming. It helps maintain consistent performance and prevents the device from becoming uncomfortably hot during extended sessions.
The 64MP main sensor is capable of capturing good detail in well-lit environments. While it holds up reasonably well in dim lighting, you may notice some noise compared to flagship devices, though the AI processing helps balance exposure.
At 215g, the Poco X3 NFC is on the heavier side for a smartphone. While the weight gives it a sturdy feel, it is noticeably substantial, so it may feel tiring to hold for extended periods if you are used to lighter devices.
Yes, the device uses a hybrid SIM slot, which allows you to insert a microSD card to expand your storage if you choose not to use a second SIM card.
