The POCO M3 Pro 5G is an Incredibly Affordable 5G Phone

POCO expands its bang-for-your-buck offerings with the M3 Pro 5G, which is touted as one of the most affordable 5G smartphones globally. While it practically share the same set of specs as the Redmi Note 10 5G, the M3 Pro 5G has a bolder design that is typical of modern POCO phones.

POCO M3 Pro 5G Specs:

  • MediaTek MT6833 Dimensity 700 5G processor
  • 4GB/6GB LPDDR4X RAM
  • 64GB/128GB UFS 2.2 storage
  • 6.5-inch Full HD+ IPS Display, 90hz refresh rate
  • 48-megapixel f/1.8 main camera with PDAF, 2-megapixel f/2.4 macro camera, 2-megapixel f/2.4 depth sensor
  • 8-megapixel selfie camera
  • 4G, 5G
  • WiFi, Bluetooth 5.1, NFC, side-mounted fingerprint scanner
  • 5000mAh battery
  • 18w fast charging
  • Android 11, MIUI 12

Making the phone stand out is a bold POCO branding on the back, where it is placed below the module that houses three cameras: 48-megapixel main camera, 2-megapixel macro camera, and 2-megapixel depth sensor. Like its non-Pro sibling, you get a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.

The display size may be roughly the same at 6.5-inches, but the M3 Pro 5G gets a centrally-placed punch-hole for its 8-megapixel selfie snapper and a smoother 90hz refresh rate that adapts to as low as 30hz depending on the content being viewed.

Powering the M3 Pro 5G is a Dimensity 700 processor that has support for dual 5G SIM. It is paired with 4GB/6GB LPDDR4X RAM and 64GB/128GB UFS 2.2 internal storage, along with a 5000mAh battery with 18w wired charging and Android 11-based MIUI 12 out of the box.

POCO M3 Pro 5G Price

The M3 Pro 5G is priced at 180 Euros(~Php 10.6k) for the 4GB/64GB variant and 200 Euros(~Php 11.8k) for the 6GB/128GB variant. Both variants will be available in Europe on May 20 via various online channels. European pricing is always more expensive, so there’s a possibility that the M3 Pro 5G might retail for under Php 10k should it become official in the Philippines.
