And on the ads, there is a way to disable them, as far as I know, and there is some info in the comments in that video.

Hmm, OK, I will give it a shot. If MIUI drives me up the wall I should be able to make my money back selling it.

I ordered the black white 256GB from belsimpel.

Rather an odd comparison I expect, but thoughts on a refurb s20 vs. The Poco F3 ?

I wouldn't be to worried about MIUI, Xiaomi released the kernel source for the F3 so some nice ROMs should be around at some point.

Tempting. I have a Pixel 4 and I've never hated a phone so much. Time for a bit of Asian bling again think.

I'd be really interested to hear whats bad about the Pixel 4.

I'm considering a pixel at the moment cos of the promised updates and clean install etc...

vidapura · 31-03-2021 12:54pm

Also, if anyone has the poco x3 pro.. just wondering what the GPS is like on it..

Xiaomi Ireland emailed me back this morning, they said should be on their Irish site mid April, if anyone was waiting on that route to order. (F3)

Early bird discount might be finished by then

deadl0ck · 31-03-2021 1:01pm

Hmm - just paid (or though I did and the order now says):

You have not paid yet, or the payment has not yet been processed.

To complete your order, your payment must be settled:

Payment: € 354.00

This is with Belsimpel

Edit: Update - it took about 5 mins and then the payment when through - I got the white F3

Amazon DE X3 Pro deal finished on the 29th I think - there was a countdown timer next to the price. Can't edit the OP with this info for some reason. Not sure if any other sites still have it in stock at the lower price. F3 deals are still going for one more day.

There's nothing bad about it. I just don't like it. I bought it in a hurry because I'd dropped my Mate P20 Pro.

thebo · 31-03-2021 10:43pm

215g weight for X3 pro. Quite heavy and big to use with one hand.

rizzee · 01-04-2021 11:07am

I'm still really surprised Amazon.co.uk doesn't have either model listed.

antomack · 01-04-2021 4:53pm

F3 in black is back for ordering on belsimpel again as is white, either for €354 delivered.

Anyone spot any decent cases for these?

There's a few on AliExpress, I picked up a slim enough one just in case the included one is no good.

I'm loving the look of the included case due to the fact it has the built-in USB port dust cover. Always bought them separately on other phones, so it's nice to have it included. Came with my old OP Nord too.

killbillvol2 · 01-04-2021 10:09pm

Didn't realise there was a case included. That'll do me for s start.

Yes case should be a good starter at least in the box....

The Charger however (Its okay its in the box also), will probable be an EU type charger, I Guess.

I have ordered some of these to get the 33W charging going....

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01MQQDELQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I got similar ones, for my wifi mesh system, I ordered from amazon.es

Did you get yours yet? I ordered the same phone on the same day but not even despatched yet.

Ordered from Belsimpel also and not dispatched, but is the release for the phones not due until the 7th April or something?

Amazon had them as a pre order and not shipping also.

Some people may have got them already, but I would guess that's an early shipping error.

Edit. Amazon. De have them as releasing 9th April....

rizzee · 05-04-2021 8:34pm

Yeah 9th April shipping and 14th-16th delivery for me (Amazon DE) , no payment taken either but presume that’ll be when it’s shipped.
