The POCO F3 GT comes in two colors: Gunmetal Silver and Predator Black. The first is a unique mixture of metallic silver and blue-ish grey hues while the latter is a blend of rich, dark, black. It even has IP53 of water splash resistance.

In front, there's a 6.67-inch FHD+ flexible 10-bit AMOLED screen. It includes a 120Hz high refresh rate, 480Hz touch sampling rate FHD+ resolution, HDR10+, and DC Dimming.

Under the hood, the F3 GT is powered by 6nm Dimensity 1200 SoC paired with either 6GB RAM or 8GB RAM, and a 128GB or 256GB memory. For heat management, it has an 8-layer graphite layer combined with super-large vapor chambers. The new aerospace-grade heat dissipation material has a built-in "white graphene" layer to dissipate heat for the charging chip and provide insulation.

Moreover, this gaming phone features an  X-axis Linear Motor and a 5,065mAh large battery with 67W fast charging. POCO claims that it can charge the phone up to 50 percent in 15 minutes and 100 percent in just 42 minutes. 

For the cameras, the latest device boasts a 64MP primary camera with an extra-low dispersion optical hybrid glass lens,  an 8MP ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 2MP macro camera. In front, it has a 16MP selfie shooter.

Aside from that, it is equipped with a special-shaped lightning flash and tactical RGB Glow lights. These lights switch in different colors when gaming or there are notifications for calls, messages, and charging.

For security, it uses a side-mounted fingerprint reader.

Meanwhile, the F3 GT sports a magnetic dual-trigger design, allowing users to play games using four fingers instead of two. Due to its mechanical structure, it allegedly offers stable pressing feedback compared to the traditional mechanical transmission. 

POCO explained that these magnetic triggers can effectively reduce the wear-out in daily use, with a lifespan of up to 1.5 million taps. Also, the company complements these features by equipping the phone with Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res audio. The POCO F3 GT runs MIUI 12.5 based on Android 11.
