Qualcomm and Poco announced the new X3
phone will be the first with Snapdragon 732G chipset, and now we know exactly
when it's coming - September 7 at 12 noon UTC. The brand confirmed the date on
its social media pages and revealed it will be an online launch event.
Interestingly enough, the phone is called
Poco X3 NFC and the moniker also appeared at the Bluetooth SIG website, where
the device with model number M2007J20CG was certified. This raises the question
of whether the company will have another version of the X3 without near-field
communication.
The phone also appeared on Geekbench with
6 GB RAM and Android 10. The Snapdragon 732G is codenamed “surya” and reaches
571 with a single core and 1766 with multiple cores. Looking at our database,
the CPU results are unsurprisingly similar to the Snapdragon 720G and
Snapdragon 730G, however, the difference between the chips should mostly boil
down to the GPU - something Geekbench is not measuring.
