Not the cheapest it has been, but still a decent price for the 128GB model (comes in at about 21% off their RRP). Remember to switch currency over to AU to get the Australian price.
Shipping rings in under $4.
Referee gets $2 in coupons. Referrer gets 10% off (if referee spends over US$10)
It doesn't charge GST for me on site?? Says "GST included".
To get the best price ;-) access via au.banggood.com or use their app. ;-)
To get it even cheaper buy it using US$ with a CC that has no international conversion fee.
What CC do not charge Int transaction fees? Citi VISA and ANZ Masters charge fees
Still waiting from an Amazon deal from the 10th December.
Says I'll get it Saturday, so likely Monday, or so they claim.
I bought the UK version from Amazon au at the end of Nov and got it before before Christmas.
The UK version does not have call recording. Also, I find that the slow motion videos need to be edited before sharing, otherwise, its shared as 30fps.
GCam 7.4 (not the latest 8.1) on the other hand works pretty well on it.
Good to know.
I thought the call recording was just a part miuu
Great phone in terms of specs and performance for the most part, software seems to not be fully optimised tho or maybe it's the apps struggling with the 144hz, can be very choppy and there is currently a bug with chrome that causes a yellow screen that fixes when you lock and unlock the screen.
Uninstalling Chrome updates (and turing off auto-update) fixes the colour bug. A temporary workaround whilst they fix the issue (I hope).
Yea I found a single button that can be disabled and that fixed it.
Found an easy fix that is working for me and others:
Go to this link in chrome ( chrome://flags )
In search section write ( dynamic color gamut )
Change it from ( Default ) to ( Disabled )
Yes thats what I did
Is it me or are some phones, like this one, on sale every other week?
I bought the phone from AliExpress including GST and free postage for $278 AUD two days ago. I couldn't post the deal here as it wasn't in line with the requirements.
Presumably 64gb version?
Poco X3 NFC Global Version Snapdragon 732G 6GB/128GB
Do you have a link please.
Just checked the store, 25 orders and "Sorry, this item is no longer available!"
Let's see what arrives at your door, and when.
Unfortunately nothing was delivered to my door, although the tracking shows it was delivered at 2021-01-14 19:02 pm, it is the time that delivery companies doesn't work.
I opened a dispute in Aliexpress however they don't have a right option to choose from.

lol, jack you're in every single one of these posts and you comment on every single one
Think outside the box man, there are better ways to fight for what you believe in rather than posting in this comment thread where no one really cares about what you're saying
Hi mate, you noticed so awareness is there.
Yes, but you're mistaking awareness versus impact, lol. Gotta drive them down the funnel.
You provide no constructive criticism, no facts to support your case and nothing, just breathing down an empty road. Sorry to break it to you man but no one really cares if that's all you're gonna do, lol.
@ramb9: The CCP can dictate and overpower any Chinese company to comply to their demands, therefore that Chinese phone you are importing is ‘theirs’ for access.
@PAEz: As an prospective or Australian citizen you owe a duty of care with the people you are in contact with when using CCP smart phones.
These are devices used to spy and collate Australian data without permission.
Android Apps you install require user acknowledgement and do not have access to the data granularity built into Xiaomi OS drivers
@smartazz104: They would have access to you and your contacts right now, had you been using this CCP backdoor phone
@jackinyourbox: Spy by the five eyes is fine, as they are kind and friendly. CCP is from another world, such as Mars. That is a NO, NO.
Just this phone? 100s of Chinese phones on the market, and the CCP decided to use the poco for their info theft?
All Chinese designed phones are CCP spies.
That's ok, they will be impressed with the amount I spend at Ali.
@ash2000: That shouldn’t be ok because you are putting others at risk as well.
Anyway, these type of phones only attract a certain demographic which places monetary value above everything else. They are a minority In Australia.
Does anyone know how to enable the Volte and WifiCall for this poco x3 on telstra network?
Doesn't work for me on boost, option is there in the settings but has no effect.
Here's how to enable the settings.

Does the os really start showing you lots of ads?
No, just typical MIUI recommendations. They can be turn off individually in each of the stock apps, e.g. App installer, Cleaner, Mi Video …. Now I have no stock apps that show me any ads.
Just wait until you get an update, I'll bet Xiaomi turns them all back on.
Did they jack up the price from 343 to 383?
The price does not include GST. Here is the shipped price
Order Subtotal: AU$343.71
Shipping Fee: AU$3.32
Goods and services Tax: AU$34.70
Grand Total:AU$381.73
