Poco X7 Pro : Strategic maneuvering by the current top contender in the mid-ranger space, the Poco is a place where companies, which are performance hard focused at competitive prices, can thrive in a transient space.
The new Poco X7 Pro carries on that legacy, setting its sights on the gamers, power users and multimedia enthusiasts who don’t want to lighten their wallets but still want strong performance and premium features.
With the combination of flagship level power, an impressive AMOLED display and a quick charge, The X7 Pro is a force to be reckoned with here. Let’s get into what it does — and whether it’s all it’s cracked up to be.
Design: Best of Both Worlds, Showy and Practical
Poco’s design language has tended to be loud, and the X7 Pro does not try to change that.
The glass like back cover body provides a mirror like reflection design from the to the surrounding environment The big rectangular camera module brings some personality without being gaudy.
It’s thin and lightweight despite striking a figure, so it feels good holding the phone for extended periods. The curved frame and Gorilla Glass protection, however, find a good middle ground between style and durability.
It comes in bold colours Cyber Black, Hyper Blue and also in a new matte finish option for those who like that clean look.
Screen: Fluid, Bright, and What You Expect to See from a Flagship
The 6.67-inch FHD+ display is one of its defining features. It also features a 120Hz refresh rate and supports HDR10+ (well, it does up to a peak brightness of the mammoth 1800 nits, so videos to games will look great and super smooth.
The colour calibration is fantastic — deep blacks, punchy contrasts and wide viewing angles make this screen great for binging and gaming.
The in-display fingerprint scanner is fast and very accurate, which contributes to the phone feeling premium.
Performance: Beast Under the Hood?
Under the hood of the Poco X7 Pro is the MediaTek Dimensity 8300 Ultra chip clocked at 3.2GHz and based upon a 4nm process, which not only makes it powerful, but also efficient.
The device is powered by 8GB/12GB of RAM and 256GB UFS 3.1 storage ensuring multitasking, gaming, and day-to-day usage is smooth.
Games such as Fortnite, Call of Duty: Mobile, Genshin Impact, and PUBG New State look buttery smooth on high settings without any perceivable lag and overheating.
MIUI for Poco does run pretty smooth and with Android 14 out the box, you get the latest on the software front straight off the bat.
Camera: Good, But With Some Potential to Improve
It gets a 64MP primary sensor with OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) along with an 8MP ultra-wide and 2MP macro lens on the Poco X7 Pro.
Shots in daylight come out crisp and colourful, with accurate reproductions and a good amount of dynamic range, both from the main camera and the ultrawide.
Low-light photography is pretty good thanks to OIS and processing, though it sometimes smudges the details.
The 16MP selfie camera is a good one for socials and video calling, if not the best we’ve seen in low light.
It’s a dependable camera system, but photography purists might prefer the more consistent performance of rivals like the Pixel A-series.
Battery & Charging: Fast and Efficient
The X7 Pro is fueled by a 5100mAh battery, and lasts a day with mixed usage – streaming, gaming, calls, and web browsing pass the test without any issues.
The cherry on top? It is also backed by 67W fast charging that refuels the phone to 100 per cent in under 45 minutes flat.
That’s a big win for people who never leave home without a charger, oh, wait, THEY DO.

Smooth 120Hz AMOLED screen with top brightness
