Deadboot issue after update. Holding power button for 30 seconds do no work. When it fully drains out, only then it shows the battery charging prompt. Doesn’t come up at all. Please suggest any work around. Any support from xiaomi? If not, this is going to be my first and last phone of xiaomi

elliah24, 09 Dec 2021Guys I didn't search before ordering it and now I got it :< should I update it or not... moreDon't update otherwise you will get worst performance.
Update can make your phone worst so that you buy their new one

For all guys who complain about "deadboot" issues. Most likely, the phone you bought is an early batch of manufacture, which is 2020. I just bought this phone yesterday, the MIUI is already on version 12.0.8 and I immediately updated to version 12.0.10 and guess what happened? all went well without any problems. Don't be afraid to buy this phone, my advice before buying is, pay attention to the batch of manufacture. You can see the date of the batch of manufacture on the back of the box with the characteristics of the year and month of manufacture. hope it helps, thanks for this phone xiaomi!

almost a year past warranty.. strange..
A week after several apps hang and had to click quit notification then trying to reboot..KO!
I guess it is a good phone to buy every year.
Dont know if I want to repair it to make it last for another year hmm..

Received android 11 based MIUI Global 12.5.5
The icons are now round. You can now swipe down from the right middle of the screen to access control centre. Previously the middle of the screen was all notification access. For the control centre you had to stretch your fingers all the way up to the right top. You can also swipe right or left in any drop down to access the other. The camera icon is colorful now like chrome, and since i keep my camera and chrome next to each other on the home screen, i am often hitting the camera icon when i want to tap chrome. The camera quality itself has not changed much, fine detail is still mushy, but at least the distortion at extreme edges for close up subjects seems well controlled now, which is a welcome. The phone as a whole seems a little sluggish though.

Poco m3 is the worst device I have ever seen in my life .. always comes up with hardware issues. Literally waste of money and time .. A big nooo for this . Hope the company debug the issues and compensate otherwise the name of the company will be unseen very very soon .. writing these words out of pain and agony.

Just updated now my POCO M3 to latest version 12.5 (with 100% battery charged) and phone went dead after update and clicking on Update menu to restart, doesn't restart or give any sign of charge when connected to charger. Still has 3 months warranty but bought in another country. Any simple solution to check/solve the problem besides writing to seller about warranty?thks

pakwarrior07, 10 Jan 2022why dont your just give it in warranty maybe they will fix your phone or give you new one then... moreThis is motherboard problem not software problem. Xiaomi not change broken smartphone to new one or even change motherboard. If someone say that motherboard change by Xiaomi, because miui version change that only downgrade software. Still use old motherboard, only fix some part on motherboard

In update say that fix performance and improve stability, but your miui 12.5.5 still not stable at all. 8 time i got update, info in update say it fix performance and improve stability but system still same. Done format still same lol.
- Well it looks better
- tZk
When poco m3 will get miui 13? I think it will better than miui 12.5.5, because miui 12.5.5 enhance ver still have lot of bugs. Xiaomi promise want to remove bugs on their ecosystem but what i see is still lot of bugs.

That will sort you out. I did it right after unboxing my Poco M3. I haven't seen any ad since.
