The Poco X3 Pro’s new chipset, the Snapdragon 860, features a Kyro 584 CPU alongside with the Adreno 650 GPU, which makes for a higher-quality gaming experience and capable of running 3D-heavy games at high settings.

In the camera department, the X3 Pro sports a quad-camera setup in the rear, consisting of a 48MP main camera, a 119-degree ultra-wide camera lens, and a 2MP macro and 2MP depth sensor for those close-ups and portrait shots.

The Poco X3 Pro will be available in Malaysia starting March 24, in two storage variants: 6GB+128GB and 8GB+256GB. They are priced at US$242 (RM999) and US$315 (RM1,299) respectively, and can be purchased on Xiaomi’s official store on Shopee.
