Since the mobile network companies announced a Fifth-Generation (5G) network, the race has begun in all mobile phone companies to offer the 5G supported device first. Many companies like Apple, OnePlus, Samsung, and many others have already launched their 5G device, while some are still trying.

Initially, back in the year 2018, the Poco was released by the company Xiaomi, and after which it continuously gained popularity among people. The first device, which is Poco F1, is the root of the success they have now.

They are again going to come up with an amazing smartphone, Poco M3 Pro supported 5G network in India by Poco. The launch dates are not announced yet, but some have predicted that it will be launched in the upcoming months. Moreover, the release of the Poco M2 Pro is also not too far to be launched in India.

As per the report of MySmartPrice, the upcoming model of Poco, which is the M3 Pro, might be a remark of the recently launched Redmi Note 10 with the 5G support. Besides, they also discover that this M3 Pro with model number “M2103K19PI” will be released with BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) certification, which means to offer the third party security of quality, reliability, and safety of users and product. The noticeable thing is that the “M2103K19PG” is spotted on Federal Communications Commission (FCC), while Note 10 by Redmi also belongs to it.

As per the documentation, it is stated that both Poco and Redmi devices (M3 Pro and Note 10, respectively) used similar material. However, the laser engraving and drawing of both these devices are different, which would change the design of the back panel and the position and size of branding.

There is no official functionality and specifications of M3 Pro 5G are revealed by Poco, but here we can predict some features of M3 Pro.

Specification of Poco M3 Pro

The first and foremost feature, as you can already assume by the name “M3 Pro 5G”, is that it will have the support of the 5G network and becomes the first Poco model to be released in India by the team.

The expected display of the M3 Pro might be Full HD+ with 6.5 inches LCD screen. We can expect the highest screen refresh rate of 90Hz in the entire Poco M series with a brightness of 500 nits.

In the past, November 2020, it was unveiled by Poco that they are trying to include 700 MediaTek Dimensity chipset. To make a budget and mid-range phone, a 7 Nanometer octa-core chipset processor might be there. The two sports chipset of Cortex-A76 CPU clocked 2.2 GHz and six chipsets of Cortex-A55. The graphics might be handled by Mali-G57 GPU.

Of course, the functionality of the camera is important nowadays, as Poco M3 Pro said to deliver a triple camera with a 48MP primary attached with 2MP both macro and depth sensor. We can predict that the selfie camera may be 8MP, but we never know what they have planned.

Xiaomi has kicked off the exotic display of their unprecedented MIUI 12.5 India with a significantly stable ROM. Furthermore they have also announced the supporting devices in the pipeline. Professing it to be one step further of its last proposition in the form of MIUI 12. The Global debut in February along with Xiaomi Mi 11 was met with vivacious enthusiasm in the potential users.

What can you expect with MIUI 12.5?

The MIUI is an augmented version of the previous rendition of the MIUI 12 update and is consequently based on its predecessor Android 11. The MIUI 12.5 comes with an impenetrable privacy mechanism, optimized apps along with streamlining of the notification features, etc. In light of the recent boycotting of Chinese products, the company relayed the imperative details through a survey.

Privacy 

MIUI 12.5 is believed to be a significant advancement in terms of privacy issues. It has incorporated additional Clipboard Protection, Sandbox Mechanism along Fuzzy Positioning. With the installation of Clipboard protection, keeping a log of each app will relay the message to the users as to which one is possibly about to go overboard to eventually read the imitated contents. 

Furthermore, the Fuzzy positioning is capable of camouflage the location of a user to a couple of meters away as opposed to the exact location to strengthen the safety in various circumstances. 

The installed browser will spontaneously block the unwanted downloads from malicious web pages. The company has even streamlined the changes as to how different websites track the varied users through a browser. 

One more intriguing facet of the new launch will provide the users with the ability to divide their photos and intrinsic data without them relying on each other but will be independent in contrast to permitting apps to gain access to all through Sandbox Mechanism.

Performance

The company has aesthetically zeroed in on the system optimizations and a system UI revamp promises to have diminished the usage of CPU by approximately 22% along with the reduction in the consumption of power by a significant margin of 15%.

In the wake of these comprehensive alterations and upgrades, the smartphone will be equipped with the ability to deliver a smoother experience to the customers than MIUI 12.

The smartphone will try to ingratiate itself into the lives of million customers through a formidable dedicated thread which successfully handles descriptive system and gestures in tandem with other tasks which were previously addressed on a single piece of thread.

A newly unprecedented animation for specific folders as well as extracting apps propels the smartphone to be a prime whim of the customers. The power menu’s updated design and volume controller’s compatibility design bolster the user’s experience holistically. The cleaner app has been provided a new and dynamic design altogether.

Camera

The much-warranted beta update goes on to equip the phone with “Magic Clone Freeze Frame Mode” which reflects the idea that it goes on to form several distinct copies of an individual or any object that eventually coalesces into one during the course of the video. 

In this version, the slider sticks to the bottom despite the toggles are scattered which was a major glitch in its predecessor when the slider used to vanish especially when the quick settings begin to expand further. 

Henceforth, the brightness bar becomes easily accessible and user-friendly which evolves into one-handed slick usage and a better/easier process.

Battery

Users have been heard this time around, the battery usage has significantly been diminished by the option to delete redundant system apps. The apps that are usually not required and yet consume the battery can easily be done away with, in the new MIUI 12.5.

However, there are still some uninstallable apps that can be kept hidden to stabilize the usage of the battery. The new intriguing fingerprint animations and bubble notification support significantly contribute to garnering the attention of the customers.

Notification sounds

MIUI 12.5 has garnered considerable attention by offering notification sounds that generate from animals from four evergreen habitats that subsume the South American rainforest, Central Australia, Arctic Circle, and East African Grassland. In a nutshell, these sounds are predominantly incorporated from natural components like Sand, water, wood, etc. The augmented skin entails improved touch which delivers a great experience too.
