It's irritating when it happens, and you know your hands or fingers was nowhere close to that area.
Ah well. As long as it is not every time.

Can't recall if asked previously, but is it possible to have the phone use the SD card for everything and not phone internal memory?
And with LineageOS?

Have it also on my Note 8 from time to time. See it more often in the dark and not during daylight.

How do you find the Poco X3 Pro, any heating issues, battery or any other quirks?

Yep, you can expand your internal storage onto the sd card or you can install the rom onto an sd card. You can even dual boot multiple roms if you like. The performance on sd cards are not so great but its a good way to try out a few roms till you find the one you prefer.
No issues I've come across yet.
Battery gets me through 2 days with medium usage.
My only gripe is the lack of dynamic refresh rate control, apps like Youtube bring it down it down to 60Hz and no way to bypass that. Besides that, all good

Seems all Xiaomi phones is special import items and no local stock?
Prices seem O.K but you have to wait ~10Days or so for delivery, is their any hidden costs or is the price listed the price you pay and just need to be patient.

Price is all inclusive. I'm waiting on my Realme 7. Ten working days on average they said. An email everytime they have something to update.

Hi Guys, Just need some info, ordered the Poco F3 from Amazon Germany, 3rd party seller on Friday 25th of June, been waiting for updates on tracking and recieved one now with the tracking number from DHL Express.
Seeing how antsy i am and how urgently i need this phone:
1) how long does it take to ship from Seville Spain to my door? Amazon has expected delivery of 16th of July, is there a chance i can get it delivered before then?
2) I know that amazon pays the customs and duties ect, but i did pay a really low price compared to the other ones i was looking at, is there any chance of me needing to pay anything else before they give me the phone?

If it's from a 3rd party you'll have to cover taxes and customs. Amazon only cover it if it's directly from them
