- Comparing Xiaomi's Poco X3 GT vs the Poco X3 Pro, to see which budget smartphone of 2021 is best for you. Here's a side-by-side review of the camera tech, gaming performance, battery life and MiUI 12 features. Check out my Poco X3 GT unboxing for a full tour, and my review of the Pro and the Poco F3!
Both of these affordable phones offer strong specs for the price, including a punchy 120Hz IPS screen with 120Hz refresh. Speed isn't a problem either, for gamers wanting to play PubG, CODM or Gensin Impact. The Pro packs a 7nm Snapdragon 860 chipset, while the 6nm Mediatek Dimensity 1100 powers the Poco X3 GT. This also delivers 5G support, on top of WiFi 6 connectivity.
For battery life, both of these budget blowers are brilliant. But only the GT can charge in around 40 minutes with the 67W fast charging support. As for the camera, well, the Poco X3 GT is best for everyday shots with its 64MP primary sensor. However, the Pro performs better in low light and has the best selfie camera.

I'm very satisfied with my X3 Pro. First SnapDragon phone that I have ever had and it never fails! charging takes about 50 to 55 mins from 17-20% to 100% - flawless!
Mine takes 40-45 mins 20 to 95
@@markrose3676 using X3 pro myself, trust me, its worth it. I m also very satisfied
What's miui version
Mine's 12.5.2 global miui
I'm planning to upgrade my POCO X3 NFC to POCO X3 PRO or POCO X3 GT for Gaming?
Great review! I'd go for the x3 pro as it has a headphone jack tho. For my wife will have to be the the GT as she uses the speakers quite a bit!
Despite lack of 5G connectivity, the Poco X3 Pro ticks all the must have features on a smartphone/gaming phone. Great review.
I chose X3 Pro because in the end, I will always install custom ROMs on my aged phones. X3 Pro, which has Snapdragon processor will surely very nice for that.
Got myself a Poco X3 pro 8 GB 256 GB phantom black version and it packs a punch.. very happy with it ♥️👍.. does not lag at all.. Snapdragon 860 shows its power no matter what u do and never shows any signs of weakness. I also don't have any problems with the "not so good camera".. its very versatile, has tons of creative options like dual video, vlog mode movie frame etc and the main cam produces really good results.. the 3.5 mm headphone jack and radio are also a plus and I also love the screen size 😍.. thank you Xiomi/Poco for making such great devices in an affordable range.. i had a xiaomi Mi A1 previously and had it for 3 years.. also a very good phone of its time..
The MIUI version is actually 12.5, and that packs more features than standard MIUI 12
Got my X3 pro arriving tomorrow. Glad I didn't wait for GT as I'd miss the card slot.
I know this has probably be asked a million times but where do you get your awesome anime wallpaper
nice
@Austin Raju micro sd slot
@PAUL MH38 that download spees isnt true, your wifi is just trash
@PAUL MH38 bruh i saw the phone it downloaded 10 gig files just fine, i dont know if you have a defect issue like you say that is a common issue but normally there is no issue
Alphaciders oops sorry alphacoders is where Chris often gets, but not exclusively, his anime wallpapers buddy, as do I.
X3 GT user here and have been very satisfied with it so far. thanks for this review
Considering buying the GT does it have Raw mode in camera? And is netflix Hi Drf
@@richerifkind3506 yes
Waiting for the poco f3 gt review
Watching on my beast Poco x3 pro with headphones jack and sd card slot as well as SD 860 😍
Do we know when x3 gt or f3 gt will be available in UK?
I am seriously considering X3 GT, for the 5G and all the other additions. I want something that will relatively be more future proof, I don’t want to buy another phone in just one or two years in the future. I want them to last at least 4 whole years, or even more. I wan’t to find something that fits my needs, but still last for a very long time. I still use my trusty Mi Max 2, but it started to fail.
But no headphone jack or Microsd and it costs more money
So you pay like $100 more for GT when you
Besides 5G won't be available for the majority for awhile at the rate
Probably best to get Pro than put that money towards a new phone when 5G is standard at a cheap price so basically save the money, get Microsd and a headphone jack and just put that money saved towards a Poco X7 or whatever in 4yrs
@@Xighor Honestly, I don't use 3.5mm that often. Maybe once in the last 3 months. So not that important to me. MicroSD is not something I worry too much, I use 64GB phone and even that works fine for me.
Pay $100 more for GT when I what?
In my area 5G has already been popping out at places. I know, but "majority" doesn't mean "everywhere". Please don't say like you know everything, please. You don't even know where I live 😉
And why did you think I "will definitely need 3.5mm jack and microSD" and tell me to "get" them? I'm sorry this is so funny.
Well, X3 Pro and X3 GT isn't that much different in price, and I don't game that much, so I'm not that moved to get the X3 Pro. I'd rather go to F3 instead of X3 Pro even if it's more expensive.
But your point is taken. Thanks for your opinion.
I will of course see the situation in the near future, before deciding to buy anything. Cause I'll use it for at least 4 years. And probably won't buy another phone until at least 2025-2026.
Honestly, 5G will take years to be fully supported and stable on your area. Buy yourself a 5G phone in 3-4 years or when your area has a stable 5G.
Really your concerns are about 5g?...tell what data usage you have where 4g speed is not enough... People complains a lot about minimum things, is 5g way faster than 4g? Yes, but 4g is fast enough for anything you do outside
@@shyhrk im with you... X3 GT is my choice for now
I don't use 3.5mm jack, and i also found out Poco provide converter/connector (i don't know what i call it) if i want to use one, but like i said, i won't, i use a wireless one..
5G support is also good.
You people keep saying, buy 5G phone after 2 or 3 years when 5G coverage is wide enough.. so you're telling us to wait for it? hell No, i need a new phone now that would save me for 4+ years and it's a bonus i won't buy another one when 5G will be usable, we're just getting ready for future.. Who cares if it will become cheap after 2-3 years, every feature become cheap after those years, as long as i can enjoy it now, that's good enough for me
And Dimensity 1100 is stronger than SD860, so gaming is also plus
I know the fact that SD is more optimized than Mediatek for the past years, but they did change it with Dimensity processor
And GT design is lot cooler than Pro
Switched from an iPhone X to a Poco X3 Pro (I know, quite a jump), quite happy with it though it is the 8GB / 256GB version
Good for u
Nice little upgrade from your iPhone 😁
@@kabukidreamboy Yeah "upgrade" 😁
@@Garro0 anything is an upgrade from IPhone
Nice man👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Man listens to Born of Osiris. Thumbs up from my side. ❤️
From a long time user still using my Poco x3 NFC since it was lunch. I highly recommend getting the Poco x3 pro in my opinion you're getting way more for your dollar 💰 unless you need future features everything is trade off. The phone was built bulletproof & now updated chipset makes that much better. Recently insert SD memory 256gb phone has 120 GB headphone jack + endless feature long battery life the phone is a low key budget flagship. Strong as a brick have to drop mine so many times.
Hello. Thsnks for the video))) Could you make a compare POCO X3 GT vs Xiaomi mi 11 lite ?
The way you hold phones is amazingly satisfying
The PRO has the GT thoroughly beaten in the emulation department, but no reviewer so far has mentioned it, do keep that in mind if you're a gamer that enjoys emulation.
Yeah, the phone with the stronger single core performance will usually win at emulation, and sd860 beats the 1100 in single core, while the 1100 beats it in multi core
i can agree on this but mines worse I can't seem to emulate at all it always says error it's frustrating..no I'm not inexperienced I've been emulating games on my past phones not only in 3ds or psp but also v.n and pokemon fan made games
Lol the only downside for X3 pro is the deadboot issue which is a major sitdown against X3 GT
really glad you commented this, torn between these two phone trying to buy an extra phone for emulation.
Like your videos! Do you know how much the GT will be for the 8GB in the UK? Can't find it anywhere!
Try amazon
Where i am getting the x3 pro
Hi, is the GT's screen dimmer than the pro model? Plz answer thanks
Good to know Dimensity processor is providing a competition for Qualcomm..
should I buy apple or Samsung next year in 2022 as I’m upgrading from my iPhone se 2020
Where do you get your anime wallpapers?
Waiting for your unboxing video of Motorola edge 20 series
Can you teach me sir how i zoom in the front camera of poco x3 pro?
Nice wallpaper dude
Thanks for the video, is the comparison I was expecting
X3 Pro for me. But lads, am I mad or was there no TSW this week (I.e. last Friday 30th as I'm writing) ? Or I'm probably just drunk to be honest hic
what do you do with all the smartphones you bought
Hey is the poco x3 pro available for cricket wireless if not is it possible to just put my chip in?
There are thow good Smartphones but anyone can tell me who's the best for hardcore gaming? I means e-sport level in Call of Duty Mobile. I wanna know who's better SD 860 or Dimensity 1100 for very intense gaming.
Great video but where do you get those wallpapers from
You probably get more comments for wallpapers then the phone 😅
What camera are u use? Sony A7c?)
battery: full day backup? is that all you gonna tell us? you could test their times atleast.
Plz.. Can u tell me where u get ur wallpaper's from??
What's sound quality like, Tech Spurt?
Could you review the new fxtec pro 1 x?
Im going for gt coz i dont mind bout the h-jack and the design of the poco is a lil bit weird,
where do you get so cool wallpapers?
Thanks a lot for your reviews! What do you think is the best camera phone below 400 €/$/£?
Still the Pixel 4a? Or is there a new winner (I.e. Redmi Note 10 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite / Oneplus Nord 2)
poco f3for sure
@@richard35791 perhaps if you're looking at overall performance, then you might be right. But just comparing the camera, definitely NOT the Poco F3.
@@NC10Plus sorry, i didnt see the camera part
@@NC10Plus samsung a52 4g maybe if released in your country, 64 mp + OIS
@@richard35791 Thanks. I will check this out. As a Samsung User I somehow haven't thought about Samsung.
so im from australia. i have always had samsungs but there garbo now. does this phone run off my gmail and will it work in australia fine? there so impressive its hard not to want one
Just got the X3 pro ...having had a OnePlus 6 for last 3yrs ...a very good phone imo ...but as OnePlus now have got more expensive ...and don't seem to offer SD card storage ..? Which I wanted ...early opinion is I'm happy with the pro ... definitely an upgrade ..and at less than £200 I'm more than happy now ..as for 5g ... waiting until it's more widely available b4 upgrading again .
yeah same, in my country only some areas have 5G support.. so for now i will stick my X3
Now install conquer os or ppui or ancient os and then install OnePlus launcher module, it will look close to oxygen os and has much better user experience as compared to shitty miui. I m using conqueros now
I also have one plus 6, been eyeing this phone quite sometime now. Is this considered an upgrade from one plus to poco? Thanks for the input.
@Kurt Çobaini is it not worth it? How about F3?
@Kurt Çobaini thanks. I'll look into it.
earphone jack is a must
Yeah that made me buy f3 😂
Buy type c to 3.5mm
I love poco x3 pro, the price performance ratio is unbelievable. I wish it had Amoled because my love of Amoled Screen made me finally turn my head to POCO F3 8/256, yep due to the amoled alone, although there is the 6/128 version but due to storage expansion didnt exist I pick the 8/256 one.... Ofc for budget tight user ,thos poco X3 pro is still the best... None can match it...
Amoled not good for eyes unnatural colors
@@sagars861 it is so?? Never knew it before, what I like from amoled is the visibility under the sun and the deep black, also all my phone before are IPS (not all actually, only my Redmi Note 3 Pro, I believe my ZTE phone from 2012 and Lenovo A859 from 2014 still using regular LcD panel), so somehow I cant considered my next phone an upgrade when I have the same type of screen.... Sound weird, I knew it... Im just making justification maybe ...
@@sagars861 i watch videos for hours... Don't really care about the quality... Is it good?
Ihaven't realized I've been using an ips display phone until now and I still think it's good; I have an Oppo f11 pro.
No SD slot on GT? I need that
Where dit you get your lovely wallpaper..i want to have one.
Great channel ❤ very well explained, excited for my poco x3 pro that i ordered 3 days ago.
I'm satisfied with my x3 pro. With its space 256gb hell yeah I could keep my musics,photo, videos and few games
Is it worth to swap my samsung s10 5g to poco c3 pro or gt??
I have the Pro and it is fast but for some reason when I use Chrome and I scroll down on sites and forums it just isn't as snappy as I expected, is this normal? Also popups like new Google emails are very sluggish to just swipe away.
You should change the animations to 0.5 or turn all off. By animations, i mean go to developer options and find animation duration scale and turn it all to 0.5 for a snappier ui
@@depressedidiot3789 I couldn't find developer options but in the settings I searched for animations and there was a option to remove animations. Is that it? It's kinda odd with this phone, because when I go to things like settings or open a app it's fast as hell, but scrolling down pages has this delay in it, not nearly as snappy as my OnePlus 3 was. Also scrolling down CZcams comment sections has this delay.
For example when I wipe down from the top it goes sluggish, but if I swipe up from the bottom it's snappy as hell.
@@bigkabuto click the build number 7x and it will open developer option
I just want to point out that the GT has a glass back. Also the note 10 pro has a glass back. But they have a plastic frame. Please double check.
Signal strength and call quality?
Which would you recommend
Hi Sir,
Could you please share your wallpaper 😉?
Where do you find your wallpapers cause GAWD DAUM
x3 gt display quality looks superior ! , But I don't like the cost cutting in front camera as the display is still IPS, the ultra wide camera is the same old 8 mp, the main sensor is neither samsung nor sony, it's omny vision. the fron't camera should have been better.
Where can I get the wallpaper pls reply
My Poco X3 Pro arrives tomorrow. Always been a Samsung user. Are there any must do things out of the box with the OS to make it better?
First of all toggle off "Receive Recommendations" to disable ads. Secondly I will suggest you to uninstall or disable all the bloatware. I'm using Poco X3 and when I first got my phone there were about 10-12 apps which were totally useless for me. 4-5 were games and the rest were third party apps.
And thirdly I would suggest you to disable and turn off notifications for "GetApps" and "Themes". These are inbuilt apps so you can't uninstall them. Just disable and turn off the notifications and those two apps will not bother at all. I don't know if the global variant has all these bloatware but in the Indian variant which I'm using there were lots of bloatware.
And turn on video toolbox for youtube, it really enhances the sound
Also, if you can switch to a custom rom such as OneOS
@@Thotbusters thanks, just started playing with it now, it's a bit of a learning curve to using my old galaxy.
@@luluthecat1570 where do I find the video toolbox?
If you like installing custom ROM, then the X3 Pro wins hands down.
Yep, thats why I choose SD device. My 5 yrs old Redmi Note 3 Pro still usable (with battery already swapped with 3rd party one) and up to date due to the Custom ROM community support for the device is awesome. I even typing this on it with AOsP extended Pie Custom ROM installed eventhough I already have Poco F3 I bought recently.
So the GT will get no Custom ROM suport? Sad
@@bigdipper1578 what is the name of telegram group?
Dafuq is custom rom
@@ImMamba me too😭 but it's like a developer, you can access so many things when you did that.
Make video on wallpapers
the back and camera design is the only thing i dont quite like about x3 pro. its a beast tho
grow on you will be used to it would even notice how it looks especially with a decent case. Compared for what you get for the price well worth it... using my X3 NFC from launch till now excellent performance reliability and updates.
I have been using the Poco X3 Pro since Christmas. I bought it for myself because I broke the screen on my Honor phone. 95% of the time my Poco is fantastic. Sometimes the phone freezes which is annoying if I am using it for demanding apps all day. The camera has a bad watermark. And there's other little things you get on it that you don't get from Poco's American equivalents, mostly ads in places you don't expect or want ads. In the settings you can trim 99% of it away but it doesn't stop all of it. An example is that you see an extra pop up screen on the play store after you download an app. You'll get used to it, but I found it infinitely frustrating.
But all in all I paid £220 for my phone, and for that you get the fast charging, a great screen, great speakers. The usability is equivalent to a £400+ phone, until like I said the screen freezes, for about a minute. Happens about once every two weeks.
Would I get another Poco phone? Yes. Especially if I was on the same budget as before. But if my budget was £500+ I'd probably choose a Google Phone or a second hand Sony phone. An iPhone would be fine too, because my car is compatible with apple car play but not android auto.
You can turn off watermark in camera setting (three lines at top right then setting)
@@hasewo wow thank you
Im currently using a pocophone F1, been very happy with the performance since its launched until now, will the GT be a suitable replacement? I have been looking for a true successor to the F1 but all the releases seems to be a reskin of other phones. Any thoughts on this?

Why is everyone complaining about the lack of headphone jack? Theres a dongle inside the box. Type C dongle to 3.5mm headphone jack. For me its not a big deal for not having a headphone jack because inside the box they provided a dongle so still, you can use your wired earphones.
Yeah bro, especially for audio heeps. They don't use phonejack if they want to play music. They use better Dongle for better sound quality. So not having jack is really not issue for us.
