Am a fan of the POCO F3 price.. but would spend the extra cash just bcoz of ONE UI software experience & future-proofing & future updates So S20 FE is the Win for me
In my country the Samsung with 5g is over 500 Euro. Just pre-ordered The poco F3 with the 8G+256Gb for 350 Euros. Because I only take a Foto each week, the Poco was my choice
Poco F3 takes the crown for me. Mainly because I know this phone is going to be very popular among custom ROM developers. 4 yrs old Poco F1 still receiving Android 11 support from these devs. So, Im expecting the same kind of support for F3 as well.
Am using a poco now 2 months from a Samsung which I’ve used since 2014 but poco has a long way to go. It’s MUI is unstable compared to the Samsung UI which is very stable.
Using both MIUI and the One UI..my main device Mi 10t Pro and 2nd device Galaxy A30..after the latest one ui update on my A30 tho..its pretty smooth and I quiet enjoying it..my Mi 10t still haven't yet get MIUI 12.5 so I cannot say much..but is still smooth somehow thanks for its powerful hardware..
Poco f3: Powerful yet Slim. The display features one of the tiniest dots in the industry at just 2.76mm. The minimal dot complements the slim body with a thickness of only 7.8mm. The double-sided protective Corning® Gorilla® Glass 5 and sturdy metal frame, gives the phone a refined look and feel
I've got both of these. First I bought F3 8/256 - nice phone. Just really nice. Everything for flawlessly. Then my operator "gave me" S20 FE. Really nice phone too! This camera in it... Oh my gosh, I felt in love. But, several months have passed and now... I got back to Poco F3. Samsung is still Samsung - poor battery, slow charing, freezes everytime. Not like Poco. So my choice - P-O-C-O!
Great video. Just a honest feedback on your review, try to use both phone on dark mode for the recording. If you didn't realise, at 3:55 , Samsung display on the score is overexposed and it's hard to see the result on the mobile RUclips. Keep up the great work. 👍🏻
@@xphyle If we're being completely honest, most people use a gcam port for their device if they're not rocking a Google Pixel. You'd rarely ever see someone use a stock camera as opposed to gcam.
@@xphyle Use Gcamator and find the specific gcam for your device WITH the configurations for that device. A good app to use is Gcamator which automatically finds the correct gcam installed with the configs. If you're downloading random gcams without seeing if it's for your device WITHOUT configs for that device: then you're gcam is going to suck. I'm using gcam right now that allows me to use all 4 cameras on my Poco F2 Pro: try using Urnyx 7.3 gcam with your device's configs.

@@t.l.4192 if people use gcam to make a better photo for their all xiaomi phone then xiaomi doesnt have a really good camera apps of their own, means samsung is a beast about camera comparison
I want from the s20 FE to the Poco and I have to say the Poco is a better phone imo. The Samsung is nice but the 120hrz refresh rate on the Samsung is not as smooth you will see some jerking at times. Yeah you get wireless charging but I feel that's a very insufficient way to charge your phone. The Poco is a bigger phone but thin so it feels better in your pocket also I noticed that the screen on the Poco is black when the screen is off the Samsung is more of a gray, so the blacks are deeper on the Poco then the Samsung. Both phones are great I definitely prefer the Poco though.
What kills those xiaomi phones for me is the lack of IP68. I bought the 865-powered S20FE 4G (yeah, that is a 865 4G version) because of that, paid an equivalent of 450 bucks new!
Software wise I'll go with Samsung's Oneui 3.1. Plus s20 fe can get a guaranteed 3 yrs software update. Miui 12.5 is a horrible mess. The only good thing from poco f3 is it has a faster processor.
If you are buying S20 FE, better pray you dont get a unit with touchscreen issues. Samsung said its a software issue, but after 4 updates still cannot be fixed it is clearly a hardware issue. Also claiming warranty for touchscreen issues Samsung wont replace with new S20 FE. They will just ask you to wait for software updates. My friend already kena
Go on cry about a buggy UI. I've been using Samsung phones for years and they're just as buggy as you said. And like Poco, Samsung also fishes out ads in their UI. It's all the same. Also, the Poco will get the same UI and Android updates.
Poco F3 is better phone except S20 FE has aluminium frame, better camera 7 IPX68 dust / water resistant. Of course, you can't complain because it's almost RM1000 cheaper.
I got myself poco first day of using it after GalaxyS9+ , i got to say this thing is absolutely fabulous i am super happy with screen , performance and even with cameras. i really do recommend this device.
@@BallIsLife077 The size at first feels strange even though S9+ is big this phone Poco is huge, so you may need to get used to it. Software wise I prefer Samsung's software. Also I like it better my old Samsung's Audio with Samsung's buds just works better, I mean slightly but still I do notice that difference. Other than that it's really decent phone. Also one very big + for Poco is battery life and fast charging. So even though it takes couple of days to get used to in my opinion it's great buy!
@@BallIsLife077 Great display quality is very similar to S9+ and has up to 120hz although I am not exactly into high refresh hype. But quality wise colors , brightness really High quality.

I was expecting more info on battery department, there's no mention about the dimming problem on poco's screen...even when it uses a E4 Amoled Panel, does the screen is good enough on direct sunlight? The main difference is that OneUI 3.1 is more reliable than MiUI 12 on software updates, and the S20 FE 5G has usb-c 3.1 and video output, if you can take advantage of it.
Poco F3 nearly wins in everything except on photography and ergonomics. The Poco is harder to use one handed due to the size. Another advantage of the FE is the SD card support.
For me the camera is very important for taking memories of my kids growing up. Other than sd card, S20fe has 3 years major software update, wireless charging, ip68 which are very significant. Actually in some countries like Australia s20fe 5g is often on sale and can be had for just rm1800 for the 128gb model with 2 years samsung warranty. Also glass back has risk of cracking which is no good
Hey Lim ,i really like your reviews , i watch most of them. It would be really usefull for your viewers if you could say a personal opinion after you say the specs of each phone(which most of us already know them). For example : the specs for the display are ... and i think the slightly better one is ....
@@purefitness6697 f3 has nice optics despite the old imx sensor and the same sensor 582 photos and videos better then poco x3 pro, and quality is quite amazing in compare with Samsung new sensors 64 and 108 mpx! so you wrong! watch more video review about f3! also with good gcam f3 - can make decent photos!
I'm so happy with my poco f3, i can easily get 7h of SOT with lots of gaming and the performance is top notch! for anyone who's considering this phone.. GO FOR IT!!
S20 FE 5G has some issues like ghost touches that were partially soved by software updates but not completely. I own one so I'm talking from my experience and what I've seen online. The phone is still great and cameras are better that the F3
Lim i have only found out about you. And i have to say you really do great useful videos, that actually no one does and are super helpful. Thanks dude all the way from Australia. Hope your channel grows bigger. As one of the more pro level Chinese phones reviews and vs samsung's
@@pedigree910 I have a Leeco Le Pro 3 and a Leeco Le max 2, both with Snapdragon 820 and custom roms. Le max 2 have 2k LCD display and I can tell you the display on F3 is really good. In my opinion, the screen protector pre applied decrease the quality of the screen. So, in few weeks I will remove the screen protector and use direct on glass like my others 2 phones
Hi. Can I ask you...For a wider selfie camera FOV, better audio sound in video recording, natural-looking photo (HDR), better white balance, better skin tones, better low light, better stabilisation (OIS/EIS), faster autofocus which ones would you get today: Redmi Note 10 Pro, Poco F3 or Mi 11 Lite 5G? (and one that can go toe-to-toe with the Galaxy A52 5G in terms of cameras). Would love your advise & comments. Cheers.
Can you do a comparison between Mi 10t and Poco f3? There's a lot of people struggling between these two. Btw if you will choose which of these two will you consider?
I was a Samsung Note 10 plus user but I switched to poco f3 just last month because Samsung updates leads to discoloration of screen. I thought I was alone until I saw my friend's Samsung phone it was the same, and she also said that it never dropped. I saw some temporary solution but no permanent one. Verdict: buy Samsung at your own risk.
I had a Note10 lite which he’d a glastic back & the back ended up with 2 scratches on in within 3 months of use, I think they must of happened whilst applying the screen protector 😭😭😭 or maybe just had a particle get in between my case & the phone, either way I will never buy a phone with a plastic back on a phone ever again 🤬
For S20 FE 5G, advantage are microsd, ip68, wireless charging, hdmi output, better camera and "better" after sales support .. the price of rm2399 quite ok for S20FE 5g. As for Poco F3, price and performance are their advantage.. after sales support are a mess. My Poco F2 pro takes 3 to 5 weeks to return back to me >_>
What would yo do if both phone are same price ? I think i will go for s20 fe but it has only 256gb. Both phone is good. Almost same performans all areas. Samsung a little bit better imo. I bought S20 fe 4 days ago even cheaper than Poco. I think its more balanced than poco.
And the Amoled panels Samsung uses on their phones ALWAYS have terrible burn ins compared to the ones they give out for some reason. I HATE SAMSUNG SCREENS BEYOND ANY WORDS.
1:42 poco has matte for white and blue colour, I know U do have another video explaining about the blue one but please don’t mislead as others might think Samsung is nicer based on what u are showing here. Please do research first next time before u giving review or comparison
Poco F3 is amazing value, too bad that the camera is the only letdown. These times, if you want great performance and great camera, you must buy the most expensive phone. I would go for S20 FE.
Maxis got RM1 FOR MYR158 ( need to add 1 line) plan and if you used one of the maxis plan for a year just buy using normal contract for RM1799 which is less rm100 for Poco F3
if u dont care about camera u go for poco because its cheap (good for gamers) if u care about camera quality for editing u go for s20 fe beause its also has IP68 thats why they had the diffrent in price (good for the people care with quality and had alot of money)
Poco in my opinion has a real winner o their hands just like the F1 especially since its snapdragon everywhere this vs the Exynos fe there is no competition

@@jeshanvincemarcelino9394 As telas Amoled da Xiomi são produzidas pela Samsung.
Poco F3 nearly wins in everything except on photography and ergonomics. The Poco is harder to use one handed due to the size.
Another advantage of the FE is the SD card support.
Big penalty on f3 is that ... missing SD card! Manly if you buy 128GB of ROM. My case to save money and scary to Taxes of import in my country.
For me the camera is very important for taking memories of my kids growing up. Other than sd card, S20fe has 3 years major software update, wireless charging, ip68 which are very significant. Actually in some countries like Australia s20fe 5g is often on sale and can be had for just rm1800 for the 128gb model with 2 years samsung warranty. Also glass back has risk of cracking which is no good
@@rogerl7279 yeah but poco is 300$ i dont think its worth it to pay 300$ for software update lmao
metal frame, one ui stability.
Lol display quality is also better on samsung
In the poco f3 i recommend you guys to buy the blue version its much beautiful
greetings from Panama. sorry, where do You get that wallpaper on the poco?
Aside cameras, I would say they're on par.
The price does justify that so...
Gcam does wonders🤷🏻♂️🎊
F3 is superior.

Really love your reviews !! 👍👍
Hey Lim ,i really like your reviews , i watch most of them. It would be really usefull for your viewers if you could say a personal opinion after you say the specs of each phone(which most of us already know them). For example : the specs for the display are ... and i think the slightly better one is ....
true
Please tell me where you can download the same wallpaper for Poco F3?
I have S20 Fe Exynos and im going to change it for Poco
@@HansTechTalk compared to what I have ...😂😂 I totally disagree
@@HansTechTalk poco camera is decent, it also gets better because of updates
@@HansTechTalk yeah, it's only decent, but if we take in consideration what Google has shown with a Sony IMX 363
@@HansTechTalk then, is possible to become very good with a good image processing
@@purefitness6697 f3 has nice optics despite the old imx sensor and the same sensor 582 photos and videos better then poco x3 pro, and quality is quite amazing in compare with Samsung new sensors 64 and 108 mpx! so you wrong! watch more video review about f3! also with good gcam f3 - can make decent photos!
I'm so happy with my poco f3, i can easily get 7h of SOT with lots of gaming and the performance is top notch! for anyone who's considering this phone.. GO FOR IT!!
Did you get the green tint issue
what launcher are you using on the Poco F3?
S20 FE 5G has some issues like ghost touches that were partially soved by software updates but not completely. I own one so I'm talking from my experience and what I've seen online. The phone is still great and cameras are better that the F3
Does it have bloatware and ads?
@@unboxingsbym1885 no
@@bjpa1151 thank you!
Nice review but you should set brightness %50 in video
Lim i have only found out about you. And i have to say you really do great useful videos, that actually no one does and are super helpful. Thanks dude all the way from Australia. Hope your channel grows bigger. As one of the more pro level Chinese phones reviews and vs samsung's
4:20 WHY THE HELL IN THE POCO IT SAYS ''REDMI K40'' ???????
Poco F3 and Redmi K40 are basically same, with different names.
subbed, straight forward content.
Couldn't decide so I got both. Well I already had the FE 5G but got the Poco F3 as well.
what about display quality? does poco f3 have nice display and colours against s20 fe?
@@YassineC f3 display gets brighter. The f3 display is newer it's Samsung newest e4 amoled display.
@@shamhosein770 you got the 2 devices, if you put them side by side, who wins in display quality? coz i want to buy one if them
@@YassineC the F3 has a slight edge in display quality side by side. But the S20 FE 5G definitely has better cameras.
@@shamhosein770 you really helped me for my choice, i decided to go for poco f3, thank you for your reply
Hey Lim, I'm enjoying your series of videos with Poco F3! Definitely the device of the year ;-)
How's the display of the phone ? Good AMOLED panel ? Happy with the display ?
@@pedigree910 yes, I am using Poco F3 for one day and display is absolutely very good!
@@fabiobertelli what your your previous phone brother ?
@@pedigree910 I have a Leeco Le Pro 3 and a Leeco Le max 2, both with Snapdragon 820 and custom roms. Le max 2 have 2k LCD display and I can tell you the display on F3 is really good. In my opinion, the screen protector pre applied decrease the quality of the screen. So, in few weeks I will remove the screen protector and use direct on glass like my others 2 phones
@@fabiobertelli thanks brother ❤️
Superb review..and comparison...🔥🔥👍👍
Hi. Can I ask you...For a wider selfie camera FOV, better audio sound in video recording, natural-looking photo (HDR), better white balance, better skin tones, better low light, better stabilisation (OIS/EIS), faster autofocus which ones would you get today: Redmi Note 10 Pro, Poco F3 or Mi 11 Lite 5G? (and one that can go toe-to-toe with the Galaxy A52 5G in terms of cameras). Would love your advise & comments. Cheers.
how about software updates? im prrtty sure the Samsung have longer support right?
The white edition does not show finger prints, plus if you buy a cover for the black edition, it will be protected in both ways
bought mint condition s20 fe 5g for rm1840 since poco f3 took too long to hit the stores
F3 truly is a value over price kind of device, what a beast
they only depend on their chipset, miui is sucks like their bloatware is cancer in xiaomi
Can you do a comparison between Mi 10t and Poco f3? There's a lot of people struggling between these two. Btw if you will choose which of these two will you consider?
I bought Mi10t Pro in the end, becuase I need the better camera it offers. I don't care about the oled screen
Poco is better in terms in terms of peformance and screen only
@@hassanlabyad4082 do you honestly believe you can see/feel the performance difference between SD 865 and SD 870?
@@comedyman112
Not much
But sd 870 runs cooler which is better in terms of reliability if you are heavy on gaming
I was a Samsung Note 10 plus user but I switched to poco f3 just last month because Samsung updates leads to discoloration of screen. I thought I was alone until I saw my friend's Samsung phone it was the same, and she also said that it never dropped. I saw some temporary solution but no permanent one. Verdict: buy Samsung at your own risk.
From the photo sample you took, it is hard to tell the difference to justify the price. Probably it shows on the other specs. Its a Samsung anyway.
F3 built in Glass and S20 FE using plastic. Personally I prefer plastic as they are more durable (since most of us will use case right?). Cheers!
I had a Note10 lite which he’d a glastic back & the back ended up with 2 scratches on in within 3 months of use, I think they must of happened whilst applying the screen protector 😭😭😭 or maybe just had a particle get in between my case & the phone, either way I will never buy a phone with a plastic back on a phone ever again 🤬
I bought a s20fe 128gb SD for less than 300€, and can't get the Poco anywhere.
In my country both cost the same (both snapdragon), what do you recommend?
Boh cost the same? Damn..in Serbia Samsung is like 150 euro more...
@@ГаврилоПринцип-и7ф samsung is even cheaper here xD, im talking right now from my s20 fe, is excellent in every aspect at least at the moment xD
Samsung of course
which launcher did you use for the Poco? it's so clean
S20 FE supports aptx hd and aptx adaptive or not?
This phone goes up to 49c when gaming. It's so hot, you can fry an egg
lol if you're playing genshin impact on fcking overclock
Which one
From the test ive seen.. that's not true unless you play gi max setting without aircond
Set to lower graphic settings or get a cooler fan if playing long sessions. Even Asus ROG 3 gets very hot in max settings and without its fan on.
Poco f3 back design is always catchy and flashy so that it would look like a high end phone
Why all phones are so big nowadays? I wish there are more compact phones for midranges and budget level
Google Pixel 4a has a compact 5.8 inch screen.
Mi 11 lite 5g
Mi 11 lite 5g
Hi sir. Can i ask if there is an issue about disappearance of notification and random reboot?
None
For S20 FE 5G, advantage are microsd, ip68, wireless charging, hdmi output, better camera and "better" after sales support .. the price of rm2399 quite ok for S20FE 5g.
As for Poco F3, price and performance are their advantage.. after sales support are a mess. My Poco F2 pro takes 3 to 5 weeks to return back to me >_>
Very nice wallpaper on the poco.
From where?
Want to cry when see price converted…poco and s20 fe be like 400-500rm for us people, when in Malaysia, the price is skyrocketing high
What would yo do if both phone are same price ? I think i will go for s20 fe but it has only 256gb. Both phone is good. Almost same performans all areas. Samsung a little bit better imo. I bought S20 fe 4 days ago even cheaper than Poco. I think its more balanced than poco.
Poco F3 no memory slot and not ip68, s20fe 5g rm2499 promo foc earbud something2
S20FE has touch screen issue. Thats a turn off
What's the issue?
@@AbinJoseph1996 touchscreen ghosting issue
@@BeF1990 oh. that's disappointing
And the Amoled panels Samsung uses on their phones ALWAYS have terrible burn ins compared to the ones they give out for some reason. I HATE SAMSUNG SCREENS BEYOND ANY WORDS.
Mine has none such problems !
How would the POCO F3 and S20 FE 5G compare to the new Pixel 6 (non-pro)??
Poco F3 does better job in night photos. This 2 phones are the best in every aspects.
Actually samsung flagship phones tend to over saturate for their pictures so is a matter of preference to how punchy you want the pictures to be.
@@arsenal_84 yeah you're right. Everyone has different view but overall both are top in their price position.
whats up with redmi k40? 4:15
Gentleman , will you please make a comparison video between Redmi k40 pro & Galaxy S20 FE 5G?
Am here after getting green & white line on my Galaxy S20FE 5G
1:42 poco has matte for white and blue colour,
I know U do have another video explaining about the blue one but please don’t mislead as others might think Samsung is nicer based on what u are showing here.
Please do research first next time before u giving review or comparison
Poco F3 is amazing value, too bad that the camera is the only letdown. These times, if you want great performance and great camera, you must buy the most expensive phone. I would go for S20 FE.
Or Realme GT Neo Which kick's both their butts🤔🤣😂😂👌
Poco F3 is the best value for money flagship killer device.
Good head to head. It’s such a close race between these 2. How’s the software support from Mi and Samsung ?
close race? you are such a clown
@@aansania9236 its is close lol
How about the brightness, I read about the display throttle on the Poco f3?
Maxis got RM1 FOR MYR158 ( need to add 1 line) plan and if you used one of the maxis plan for a year just buy using normal contract for RM1799 which is less rm100 for Poco F3
if u dont care about camera u go for poco because its cheap (good for gamers)
if u care about camera quality for editing u go for s20 fe beause its also has IP68 thats why they had the diffrent in price (good for the people care with quality and had alot of money)
poco f3 for sure :))) thanks for this video !
are you kidding right ?
What theme and wallpaper used in Poco f3?
how come the other phone he picked up said xiaomi redmi k40 instead of poco f3 on the benchmarks?
I'm a gamer and doesn't care abt the cameras cause I don't like taking pictures so really I'm going for poco
I want the wallpaper in Poco f3 where did you download it?
Poco in my opinion has a real winner o their hands just like the F1 especially since its snapdragon everywhere this vs the Exynos fe there is no competition
The S20 FE 5G used in this comparison has a Snapdragon 865
