Recently presented by Xiaomi as a turbocharged version of the already known Poco X3 NFC, the Poco X3 Pro bet on raising the bar when it comes to hardware, exchanging the Snapdragon 732G for the Snapdragon 860, targeting especially those who want more performance.
In addition to this change in the heart of the device, we have that the Poco X3 Pro offers changes in the question of cameras, with the main sensor being 48 MP instead of 64 MP and ultrawide, which went from 13 MP to 8 MP.

We have already talked about the Poco X3 Pro and now is the time to talk about its simpler brother, the Poco X3 NFC that was presented by the brand in late 2020 bringing as its main highlight the offer of a 120 Hz screen with Full HD + resolution.
Like the more robust brother, this device delivers a 5160 mAh battery and delivers good results when it comes to autonomy, in addition to nice recharge time, thanks to the 33W charger included in the box.

Another viable option for importers is the Redmi Note 9, a device that comes with the Mediatek Helio G85, design changes and a generous 6.53 “Full HD + screen and a 5020 mAh battery that managed to exceed 22 hours of use and little less than 12h of screen on in our tests.

Still talking about the Redmi Note line, we also have the availability of the Redmi Note 9S, a device that in our analysis stood out for delivering great gaming performance, good battery life and an effective camera to record good photos during the day.

Already present in Brazil, realme 7 is an interesting option for those who want to escape the hegemony of Xiaomi in this price range, without giving up cool hardware and good construction in general.
A point that differs when we compare the version sold in Brazil and the one offered on import is that it has a 48 MP rear camera but does not give up the 33W fast charging, which makes it stay less time in the socket.

To close, we have the Redmi Note 9T, a device that arrived on the market with the promise of bringing 5G connectivity to users who want to spend less on the device, thanks to the use of the MediaTek Dimensity 800U chipset.
Like the others mentioned here, the Redmi Note 9T brings a 6.53 “Full HD + screen with a hole in the upper left corner for the front camera of 13 MP and in the rear, a look reminiscent of the Poco X3 NFC and includes a set triple camera that focuses in particular on the main sensor of 48 MP.
