How to turn off vibration when typing on Xiaomi Poco X3

Poco smartphone users often experience intrusive tactile response that interferes with comfortable typing. Standard MIUI or HyperOS settings involve active feedback, but many prefer silence, especially when typing at night or in quiet rooms where each signal seems loud.

In this article, we will discuss exactly where vibration switches hide, as they are often divided into system and application. You will learn how to manage the tactile response of the Gboard keyboard and the standard MIUI shell. Competent setting will completely get rid of unnecessary hum, while maintaining important system notifications.

It's worth noting that tactile response can work even when the sound is off, unless you change the settings. Understanding the difference between the vibration of the call and the input vibration will help you quickly find the option you want. We'll look at all possible scenarios, including third-party apps and hidden menus.

Differences between system and keyboard vibration

The first thing a Poco X3 owner needs to understand is the dual nature of the audio settings. The smartphone divides tactile response management into two independent categories: system actions and text input. Often users turn off one setting, wondering why the humming continues while printing.

System vibration is responsible for interface responses: pressing buttons in the menu, switching switches, long tap on icons. The vibration of the keyboard is adjusted separately within the input application itself. This is made for flexibility so that the user can feel the touch on the menu but not hear the keyboard, or vice versa.

⚠️ Warning: Resetting to factory settings can return vibration settings to default and you’ll have to reset them.

Separating these features allows you to fine-tune the device to your own, for example, you can leave a tactile response for navigation, but completely remove it when typing messages in instant messengers, which creates a more enjoyable experience without unnecessary noise.

Global disabling tactile response in settings

To start with, let's look at a universal method that affects most system sounds, which is a good way to remove vibrations not only when printing, but also when interacting with the MIUI interface. The path to settings may vary slightly depending on the firmware version.

You need to go to the Settings menu and find the Sound and Vibration section, where the main volume sliders and mode switches are located, and look at the Vibration when touching (or "Tactile Response").

• 📱 Open the main menu of your Poco settings X3.
• 🔊 Go to the section "Sound and vibration".
• 🔍 Find the switch "Vibration on touch" or "Vibration in quiet mode".
• 🚫 Deactivate the slider to remove the system response.

Once you turn off this setting, the phone will stop vibrating when you press volume buttons or switch tabs. However, as mentioned earlier, this does not always affect the keyboard itself, as it is a separate application with its own rights.

💡

Use Do Not Disturb mode to temporarily turn off all vibration and notification sounds without changing the basic system settings.

Vibration settings in the standard Gboard keyboard

Most of the global versions of the Poco X3 pre-installed the Gboard keyboard from Google, which has its own independent haptic recoil engine, and to turn it off, you need to log into a specific settings menu hidden inside the keyboard itself.

Open any application that requires text input, such as notes or messages. Click on the gear icon at the top of the keyboard or press the space for quick access. You're interested in Preferences.

Gboard settings → Preferences → Vibration when pressed

Inside this menu, you'll see a slider that regulates the duration of the vibration, move it to the far left (0 ms) or just turn off the switch, which will instantly remove the response when you type.

Response management in the MIUI Keyboard

Chinese firmware versions or devices that have users switched regions often use the native MIUI Keyboard, which is different from Gboard, and the settings are elsewhere, and it's also important to distinguish between click and physical vibration.

Go to general settings of the phone, scroll down to optional settings. Select Language and input. Here will be listed active keyboard. Click on gear next to the name MIUI Keyboard.

In the menu that opens, look for the Sound and Vibration section. Unlike Gboard, you can group the settings together here. You need to find the Vibration option when you press it and uncheck it. If you have one slider, just minimize it.

If you use third-party keyboards like SwiftKey or Yandex Keyboard, the principle will be similar to Gboard: settings are searched either through a long tap on the comma button or through the settings icon on the toolbar.

Specifics of the work in the Game Turbo mode

Poco X3 owners are actively using Game Turbo, which can intercept vibration control. In games, tactile response is often used to simulate shots or punches, but in text chat fields it can be redundant.

Check the settings of the application itself Security → Game Turbo. In the section of game settings or general parameters, you can check the lock box or, conversely, activate the tactile response during gameplay, this is a separate layer of settings that is more important than the system.

⚠️ Note: In some games, the vibration of the keyboard in the chat may not be turned off by standard methods if the game forcibly turns on the gamepad mode.

It's also worth checking if the "High Sensitivity" mode is on in the screen settings, although it affects the touchscreen more often, but when combined with MIUI, it can produce strange response effects. Turn it off if it's activated to check.

Solving problems with sticking vibration

There are times when the sliders are turned off, but the phone continues to vibrate, it can be a software glitch or an application conflict. First of all, try rebooting the device, since Android often caches audio profiles.

If the reboot didn’t work, check if you have a memory cleanup or optimization app that may have its own audio settings, and the theme may be the cause: some custom MIUI themes force vibration.

• 🔄 Perform a full reboot of the smartphone.
• 🎨 Try to change the topic to a standard one.
• 📵 Check the Pocket Mode mode in the call settings.
• 🔋 Make sure that energy saving does not block the shutdown of functions.

In rare cases, cleaning the Settings cache or resetting the keyboard to factory settings helps, and you need to find the "Settings Reset" option in the keyboard management menu or delete the application data in the application management menu.

💡

If the vibration remains after all the manipulations, the problem may be hardware (vibromotor) or require flashing the device.
