    I think Poco made some claims that they increased the cooling solution of this phone, but the vapor chamber seems more or less identical in size to the one in the x3 GT. No wonder this phone doesnt really perform well in terms of thermals, the D8100 is more or less left thermally unsupported.

  • @PBKreviews

    The vapor chamber is longer in length, however the X3 GT looked to have more thermal paste in between the frame and the copper heat transfer tape on the back of the board. The X4 GT has a good amount of thermal paste underneath the copper tape between the processor and the copper film, but not so much between the film and the frame.

    Hello, I'd like to inquire, if bottom micro has some kind of protection or may be it is installed 90° towards the bottom edge? There is a point that firstly i inserted a simcard but then i needed another one to be inserted, and occasionally put the needle into the microphone's hole. I barely touched it and didn't push it further as i quickly understood it was the wrong one. However I'm a bit anxious of having smth damaged. Overall, i checked wether the micro works okay, and yeah, it does. But who knows, may be it can cause some problems with water/dustproof condition

    Since the charging board is removable, do you think it is possible to make a diy upgrade from usb 2.0 to usb 3.2? I often plug my Poco X4 GT into my PC, and the transfer speeds are slow, not to mention hdmi adapters not working. I've heard that the chipset would limit the speeds, but since the entire sub board is removable, could this be circumvented?

    I'm not sure since I'm not an expert in electrical engineering but I would assume just changing the port alone would not work since there are controller chips regulating it as well either on the sub board itself or the main board.

  • @PBKreviews

    Not sure how much, usually they sell them in standard amounts which is more than enough for any application. However I wouldn't apply thermal paste to areas that it doesn't need to be like the battery and camera. Depending on each thermal paste compound, some are more conductive than others and if they leak into areas that you don't want them to be, they can short the phone or damage components.

    There is a high chance the ROM would be damaged from corrosion as well rendering it useless, but even if it was good, you would need to find a specialty shop that can de solder and remove the ROM from the board and re solder it to another board. It wouldn't be cheap if even doable.
