To ensure steady operation and frictionless user experience, the device embeds LiquidCool Technology 1.0 Plus, combining an enlarged copper heat pipe with multiple layers of graphite that work together to reduce the heat of the phone’s processor by up to 6 degrees1.

The phone’s incredible performance can be further optimized for gaming thanks to the latest iteration of Game Turbo 3.0, the utility that tunes the phone in accordance with game requirements, that ensures users get the most out of the handset’s powerful hardware. Additionally, the phone’s Z-axis linear motor ensures superb haptic feedback with over 150 vibration modes for different scenarios.


Exactly the immersion you need with 120Hz + 240Hz display and stereo speakers

In line with POCO’s original goal of making innovation available to everyone, POCO X3 NFC sports a stunning edge-to-edge 6.67” FHD+ DotDisplay with a staggering combination of a 120Hz refresh rate and a 240Hz touch sampling rate.

POCO X3 NFC, t
he industry-redefining smartphone brand boasts one of the smoothest screens in its price category. The DynamicSwitch function allows the phone to save power by automatically switching between 50, 60, 90 and 120Hz depending on the use case and the format of content displayed on the screen. This allows the phone's refresh rate to go up for use cases like gaming and down for lighter operations like reading – thereby optimizing power usage

The 240hz touch sampling rate further reinforces the phone’s extraordinary display capabilities, allowing it to beat most competition hollow. POCO X3 NFC boasts 33% faster response than most flagships currently on the market2, providing for an exceptionally satisfying user experience as well as giving users a noticeable competitive advantage even in the most sophisticated games.

To ensure utmost immersion, the device also packs a pair of flagship-grade stereo speakers.

Exactly the battery life you need with 5,160mAh and 33W fast charging

Top level specs are no use without a battery that lasts. To guarantee that users can enjoy all of its amazing features, POCO X3 NFC is equipped with a large 5,160 mAh(typ) battery that lasts over two days under moderate usage. The handset supports 33W fast charging which not only means that the device can be charged to 100% in only 65 minutes, but also that a mere 30 minutes will fill it up to 62%1.

The increased charging speed is achieved through Middle Middle Tab (MMT) technology. In conventional batteries, the electric current is coming from the bottom of the module, filling it upwards, thus resulting in considerably slower charging speed. Middle Middle Tab (MMT) technology is based on an innovative method in which the battery receives the electric current from the middle and spreads it simultaneously to the top and bottom of the module. This allows for faster and more consistent charging speed, while also ensuring battery longevity, compared to traditional layouts.

Starting from September 9, POCO X3 NFC’s 6GB+64GB variantwill be available at PHP 10,990, and 6GB+128GB at PHP 12,990. The device will be available in two colors – Shadow Gray and Cobalt Blue.

A brief history of nicotine pouches

Before the existence of the tobacco-free nicotine pouches, the Swedish people had tobacco pouches as part of their culture. When the consumption for these pouches skyrocketed, Swedish farmers reinvented the tobacco pouches and they discovered a way of mixing tobacco leaves with salt and water in their coffee grinders. It resulted in a moist tobacco mixture with a unique taste that could be used while working in the fields. 


Factories increased their production as the demand for tobacco pouches increased. Different brands had also surfaced which also introduced different new flavors of the product.

In the 20th century, the side-effects of tobacco use, in general, were a talking point.
Doctors were coming out against cigarettes, with the U.S. Surgeon General's report that smoking causes lung cancer, laryngeal cancer, and chronic bronchitis. It was also the time when the first medical reports linking smoking to lung cancer began to appear and a series of major medical reports confirmed that tobacco caused a range of serious diseases. In the latter part of the 20th century, the first successful lawsuits against tobacco companies over smoking-related illness happened.

With all the issues surrounding tobacco use and smoking, Swedish Match saw a demand for nicotine consumption without side-effects. The risk of tobacco juice staining one’s teeth had been a breaking point which leads to a breakthrough when they found out that nicotine could be separated from the tobacco leaves in an advanced heating process. This innovation lead to the discovery of a new all-white segment - the white nicotine pouches which could be enjoyed without side-effects.

Since then, nicotine pouches received an enormous rise in popularity and are expected to be accepted globally as many smokers experience them to be a great substitute for cigarettes and vaporizers.

Nicotine pouches nowadays are very popular among smokers who wish to quit smoking. It is used even in Nicotine Replacement Therapy which is a medically-approved way to take nicotine by means other than tobacco. NRT has been proven to increase the chance of quitting smoking or stopping chewing tobacco by about 55%.

Currently, there are around 14 popular brands of nicotine pouches in the American and European markets. They are mostly old factories based in Sweden, whose history dates back to as early as 1432. Each brand features different flavors and strengths. Some have the classic flavors of mint, spearmint, peppermint, or menthol; others have sophisticated fruit flavors such as melon, cranberries, berries, or cherries.

Eyes on the future at Taiwan Excellence online product launch

Four Taiwan Excellence Award winners from the ophthalmic medical equipment industry in Taiwan demonstrated their most innovative products during an online product launch held recently. The event was jointly organized by Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), the foremost trade promotion body in Taiwan, and Taiwan’s Bureau of Foreign Trade.


According to estimates from IEK Consulting of the Industrial Technology Research Institute, the global ophthalmic medical equipment market is estimated to reach US$ 58.4 billion by 2023. The three major areas of this market are vision care, surgery, and diagnosis and monitoring. Bulk products of significance are optical lenses, contact lenses and “fundus” cameras, a complex optical system designed for imaging of the eye’s retina.

Revenue from Taiwan's ophthalmic medical equipment industry has grown steadily in recent years, with a turnover of approximately US $7 billion. The auxiliary and remedial category, which constitutes the “contact lens industry,” has the most outstanding performance. The export ratio of this “invisible champion” accounts for 1.53% of global sales. Taiwan’s ophthalmology industry accounts for approximately 0.3% of global sales, where it combines technologies that include optics, electronics, motors, and big data calculations. Taiwan is highly proficient in ICT technology, and with this significant advantage, the ophthalmology industry has demonstrated great potential.

As a trusted world partner, Taiwan Excellence upholds the spirit of innovation by selecting products that best represent the image of Taiwan's industries. On this occasion, the companies awarded were Crystalvue’s Non-Mydriatic Auto Fundus Camera that uses automatic 3D tracking, reduces human diagnostic error and is sold in over 50 countries worldwide; Medimaging’s Digital Portable Tonometer (DPT 100), which uses air-jet pressure detection to avoid contact with disease and infection; BenQ’s Miacare CONFIDENCE Color Contact Lens, which adopts silicone hydrogel technology and provides contact lens wearers with all-day comfort; and In-Trust’s Aurai Hot & Cool Eye Massager, the first in the world to use water circulation and water wave massage to reduce intraocular pressure without risk of any harm. 


Taiwan Excellence award-winning products showcase the best of Taiwan’s industries, which provide smart solutions for consumers’ daily lives. According to TAITRA, more events focusing on medical products, including dentistry and assistance devices for the elderly, will be held in the coming weeks.
