In line with POCO’s goal of making innovation available to everyone, the X3 sports a stunning edge-to-edge 6.67” FHD+ DotDisplay. It sports one of the smoothest screens in its price category.
Its unique DynamicSwitch function automatically switches the phone between 50, 60, 90 and 120Hz depending on the format of the content displayed on the screen, allowing the phone’s refresh rate to go up for use cases like gaming and down for lighter operations like reading – thereby optimizing power usage.
The 240hz touch sampling rate further reinforces the phone’s extraordinary display capabilities, providing an exceptionally satisfying user experience as well as a noticeable competitive advantage even in the most sophisticated games.
To ensure utmost immersion, X3 comes with a pair of flagship-grade stereo speakers.

Moreover, the speakers’ ability to self-clean ensures unmuffled audio in the long run.
