Are these POCO phones any good?

[Jessi]

I have been looking for a cheap phone and found this on LAZADA.

I mainly only use the phone for calls etc., I don't need anything fancy.

Members please let me know your thoughts on the  POCO C 40.

I just looked on Lazada and the POCO c40 comes up as a screen accessory, not an actual phone.

I quite enjoy mine, POCO X3 NFC,  purchased Nov 2020 and no issues.

I like this part,  As with many budget phones, the C40 still sports a 3.5 mm audio jack for plugging in headphones or other audio devices.

For an entry level phone under 2500฿ it seems a fairly decent phone apart from the screen res.

Remember, you get what you pay for and it is a cheapie! 

 

If it suits your needs then fine, go for it.

POCO M3,

Worst phone I ever bought, never worked properly since purchase.

No support, many similar complaints online (wouldn't turn on after charging).

Bricked after a OTA update (many other owners had the same problem).

Chucked it in the bin.

The only totally worthless phone I've ever owned.

After reading some reviews on the net I have decided not to buy one. Thank you to the members that have replied.

I have a POCO and I am happy with it. Before that I had a Redmi.

BritManToo and OneMore Farang at each end of the spectrum.  Hmmm.
