Xiaomi Poco M3 Pro

OhoPrice editorial review

Our Take: The Xiaomi Poco M3 Pro at Rs 25,999 is a genuine standout — it is the only phone in this batch with a 5G-capable processor. The Dimensity 700, built on a modern 7 nm process, delivers significantly better performance and power efficiency than the 12 nm and 14 nm chips found in every other phone at this price. The Mali-G57 MC2 GPU handles gaming and multitasking smoothly. At 405 PPI, the 6.5-inch Full HD+ display is the sharpest in this batch — individual pixels are nearly invisible at normal viewing distances, producing text and images with real clarity. The 90 Hz refresh rate adds fluid scrolling. With 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, the phone offers generous configuration. The 48 MP main camera with PDAF captures detailed, accurately coloured photos, and the dual-LED dual-tone flash provides more natural-looking illumination than standard single LEDs. The 5000 mAh battery provides standard all-day endurance. While 5G networks are not yet widespread in Pakistan, the Dimensity 700 ensures this phone remains capable for years to come. This model suits forward-thinking buyers who want a future-proof processor and the sharpest display available. The Sego Note 70 Limited Edition at Rs 24,149 saves you Rs 1,850 but cannot match the Poco M3 Pro's Dimensity 700 — a 7 nm chip that outperforms the Sego's unnamed processor by a wide margin in both speed and efficiency. The Poco's 405 PPI Full HD display is significantly sharper than the Sego's unspecified panel. The Xiaomi's documented 5G capability also means this phone remains relevant longer as networks upgrade. The Sego's 12 GB of total RAM exceeds the Poco's 6 GB of physical memory, though virtual RAM does not match real memory for demanding tasks. For buyers who want the fastest processor, sharpest display, and most future-proof phone under Rs 26,000, the Poco M3 Pro is unmatched; the Sego appeals to those who want more virtual RAM at a lower price and do not care about 5G readiness. PTA Note: 5G bands may not yet be fully operational in Pakistan; check local carrier support before factoring 5G into your purchase decision.
