When Pocophone F1 was introduced in 2018, it was an impressive phone that offered a flagship-class processor for less than RM1,500. Now it appears that Poco is continuing that tradition with its new Poco F3 5G. It gets a new Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chip and it even supports 5G.
Here’s the official Poco F3 5G pricing in Malaysia:

During its upcoming flash sale on 27th March in conjunction with Lazada’s 9th birthday, the Poco F3 5G 6GB RAM + 128GB storage can be yours for RM1,299, while the 8GB RAM + 256GB storage version is priced at RM1,499. The sale is happening on the Poco official global store.
Essentially, the Poco F3 5G is a rebadge of the Redmi K40 that’s sold in China. Upfront it gets a 6.67″ Full HD+ AMOLED display that pushes a 120Hz refresh rate and a high 360Hz touch sampling rate. The display is HDR10+ certified with rated peak brightness of 1300 nits and has a 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio.
