Merely a couple-odd months after the Poco M2 launch in India, the Chinese giant has now unveiled its successor today. The Poco M3 has made its global debut with a brand new yet familiar-looking design, a Snapdragon chipset, 48MP cameras, and a massive battery on board.
As we have already stated in the past, the Poco M3 features a OnePlus 8T Cyberpunk Edition-like camera island with the Poco branding. The rectangular module at the left extends over the entire width of the phone on the rear. The company also offers you a faux leather anti-fingerprint finish for added grip and comfortability.
Under the hood, Poco M3 swaps out the MediaTek Helio G80 chipset for Snapdragon 662 chipset – the same as Realme 7i. Qualcomm unveiled this chipset earlier this year, alongside the Snapdragon 460 that powers the OnePlus Nord N100. The chipset here is coupled with 4GB of LPDDR4x RAM and up to 128GB of UFS 2.2 built-in storage. It can be expanded up to 512GB via a dedicated microSD card slot.
Poco M3 has been priced at $149 (~Rs. 11,000) for the 4GB+64GB base variant while the high-end 4GB+128GB variant will see you shell out $169 (~Rs. 12,500) in Europe. If you grab this smartphone during the Black Friday sale, you can get a flat $20 discount on both variants.
