POCO M3 Pro

POCO M3 Pro 5G — specs that matter for accessories

The POCO M3 Pro 5G has a flat 6.5-inch IPS LCD screen with a 90 Hz refresh rate, protected by Gorilla Glass 3. The body measures 161.8 × 75.3 × 8.9 mm and weighs 190 g. The fingerprint reader sits in the power button on the right side, and at the bottom you will find a USB-C port and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. This matters when choosing a case: the cut-outs must leave the scanner button and both ports uncovered.

This model is a twin of the Redmi Note 10 5G — both share the same body. That is why product names often carry the double label “POCO M3 Pro 5G / Redmi Note 10 5G”. Note: the 4G Redmi Note 10 and Note 10S from the Redmi Note 10 series have a different body and different accessories.

Which POCO M3 Pro 5G case should you choose?

Rugged and hybrid

Cases with reinforced corners and a stiffer frame are a good fit if your phone often ends up on the floor. Matte TPU cases with a carbon-fibre-style texture are thin, yet they absorb impacts well. Spigen and Tech-Protect, among others, offer such models.

Clear and matte

Clear hybrid cases show off the colour of the phone, while matte ones with a semi-transparent back keep fingerprints less visible. A good choice if you want your phone to stay slim.

With camera cover

Some cases have a sliding shutter that covers the lenses. It protects them from scratches in your pocket and gives you privacy when the phone lies camera-up. Nillkin, among others, makes this type of case.

Flip cases

Book and wallet cases cover the screen, have card pockets and often double as a stand. Versions with a window let you check the time without opening the flap. You will find them from Dux Ducis and Tech-Protect, among others.

Tempered glass for POCO M3 Pro 5G

Tempered glass with a black frame covers almost the entire flat screen and protects it from scratches and cracks. The flat LCD panel makes installation easy — just degrease the screen thoroughly and apply the glass from the top, aligning it with the selfie camera cut-out. When choosing glass, check that it works with your case — glass that is too wide may lift at the edges of the case.

POCO M3 Pro vs other M series models

Despite the similar name, the POCO M3 is a different phone — it has a larger body and a different camera island. Cases are also not interchangeable with the POCO M4 Pro 5G. Accessories for later generations are in the POCO M Series category. For charging, a USB-A to USB-C cable of the right length will come in handy.

Frequently asked questions

Does a Redmi Note 10 5G case fit the POCO M3 Pro 5G?

Yes, both phones have the same body. Make sure the case name says 5G — the Redmi Note 10 4G is a different model.

Does the case cover the fingerprint reader?

A well-fitted case has a cut-out or a thin membrane at the power button, so the scanner works normally.
