POCO M3 Pro 5G One Month Later Honest Review - 5G on a Budget! By ProductNation

The Poco m3 pro 5g is a new budget 5g device coming in from polo, as you guys already saw from our previous video, we're pretty frustrated with the new release of the Redmi Note 10 from Xiaomi, because there's so many devices within that one series. But anyway, in this video we're going to figure out where this device sits, should you purchase it and how it really compares to the Redmi Note: 10 5g, quick, spoiler, it's identical to the Redmi Note, 10 5g, just rebranded and changes in the design. Let's quickly begin with the unboxing. For this, you get the Poco m3 pro 5g, with all the main specs on there. You also get a clear case included the type c cable for charging, as well as a 22 watt power adapter. Let's move on to the build quality and the design on this.

It's actually built very well for a budget device. The main thing that stands out is the Poco branding at the back of the device unique something we really haven't. Seen before you get a single firing speaker at the bottom and an IR blaster at the top and the power button also doubles as your fingerprint sensor, the fingerprint sensor is pretty good and works very fast and accurately so no complaints there. As far as the display goes, you get a 6.5 inch IPS LCD panel with 1080p and 90 hertz of refresh rate. The 90hz is pretty nice to see on a budget smartphone pretty decent for an LCD panel as well with nice contrast levels and even pretty good color accuracy, if you customize it within the settings.

Now. As far as brightness is concerned, it's fairly bright for the price point, and it isn't crazy bright in direct sunlight situations. But for my testing when I went outdoors, I didn't really have any issue with viewing my screen. So yeah brightness-wise, it's pretty okay, like I said at the bottom, you have a single firing speaker, so it's not stereo and the sound quality is pretty decent. You get nice mid and highs, but the lows where the bass lies is kind of weak, and you won't really feel uh.

The bass here sounds comfortable as far as software and UI is concerned. It comes with Xiaomi's me UI, it's kind of its own version of mini, so it is based off of that, but they have their own Poco flare on top with all these pre-installed applications, which luckily are possible to remove, but you do have a lot of the things that come over from the Xiaomi and Redmi devices onto here uh. I do like this version of mini, but the Poco branding the Poco flair on top is something that I'm not very keen on. I do like the Xiaomi once more so powering this device is the MediaTek dimension 705g processor, with four or six gigs of ram. Now this is the same one.

We saw on the Redmi Note 10 5g, it's a pretty good performing processor. Now the GPU is kind of on the lower end, but the performance as far as framers is concerned is actually pretty good if you're willing to sacrifice on the graphical capabilities, but as far as gaming multitasking and all of that is concerned, the performance was pretty good. I didn't really feel like. I was using a budget device, no lag issues or anything of the sort. Unfortunately, no benchmarking numbers were accurate.

It would crash sometimes, but I do have one screenshot- that I managed to take so performance wise, pretty decent now powering it up is a massive 5 000 William hour battery with a 22.5 watt charger, like I said, included in the box. It charges up from zero to 33 in about 30 minutes, which is what you'd expect at this kind of battery size and charging capability moving on to the camera performance. This is where I was kind of like whoa. Okay, it can actually do better than I expected you get a main 48 megapixel camera, a 2, megapixel macro camera, as well as a depth sensor. The images that come out from the main lens have great dynamic range.

Surprisingly, pretty good sharpness and colors in bright light situations, the colors can be a little washed out when you shoot away from the sun, but with, like I said, bright light situations. It does turn out to have pretty decent image quality portrait mode background blur. All of that can be seen on screen right now, nothing overwhelming, but not really terribly performing as well. I would say that the Redmi performed a little better than this one in the camera department, but otherwise they're almost identical. Lastly, moving on to the video side of things, it does only 1080p at 30fps maximum resolution and frame rate uh, the video performance again similar to the pictures you get decent sharpness and nice colors a little washed out at times, with contrast levels being slightly lesser than I would hope for, but it does make up for that with its stabilization and overall look to the image.

The stabilization is very, very nice now as a device. If you're thinking about purchasing a 5g device on a budget, then yeah sure the Poco m3 pro 5g is a great device for you. But again I would really not care about 5g at this point at least that's me personally. I would rather save up the money and get a better device within the same price range, or even look at the Redmi series, because the image performance might be slightly better. There I mean the processing power is identical.

The display is identical. The battery life is that it's almost exactly the same, which is why I was so frustrated. Okay, I'm not gonna talk about that right now. What do you think about the Poco CT pro and the Redmi being so similar? Does that frustrate you as much as it frustrates us? If you guys have thoughts on this? Do let us know down in the comments? We really hope you guys enjoy this video. If you did a like, would be appreciated, and we'll see you again in the next video until then they're almost exactly the same phone, just rebrand it.

I don't know man, I'm frustrated.
