Extreme performance powered by Mediatek Dimensity 1100
POCO X3 GT introduces multiple POCO X-series firsts. Under the hood, POCO X3 GT is a beast that’s equipped with MediaTek’s flagship-level Dimensity 1100 5G chipset.

This is developed on the back of a 6nm chipset, the first POCO smartphone equipped with this power-efficient flagship process technology. Power up a favorite game and be blown away by the leap in speed and efficiency. POCO X3 GT operates on the latest four powerful Arm Cortex-A78 cores at up to 2.6GHz, and four Arm Cortex-A55 efficiency cores.
