F7 Pro has a 6000mah battery so it is expected but I am telling you the Xiaomi 15 with 5400mah outlasts your F7 Pro
but the Xiaomi 15 is more expensive than f7 pro!

Xiaomi series are more on flagship end than Poco and and redmi

The initial conversation was on Poco F7 Ultra in comparison with Xiaomi 15 and let me bust your bubbles the difference in pricing between a brand new F7 Ultra and Xiaomi 15 is 100k ISH.

At that close margin tell me how the F7 Ultra is a reasonable purchase over the Xiaomi 15.

NB: The beginning of this back and forth is when someone said budget is not a problem when asking for the best Poco device.

at that one 100k different I won't waste my time on Poco f7 ultra!
Mind you the Xiaomi 15 comes with well equipped camera and the over OEM built is flagship!

No reasonable person will go for the Poco f7 ultra over Xiaomi 15 at this price range

Good day everyone. I went to my friend who reviews devices on YouTube and had to handle his Camon 40 premier and Poco x7pro. As promised, I'll drop my first hand experience here.
The Camon 40 premier and Poco x7pro are real beasts in the midrange segment and trust me, you can't go wrong with any of them.

Design: both devices look nice but I kinda prefer the Camon 40 premier's looks. It's just my preference so I can't speak for any other person.

Display: Camon 40 premier uses LTPO AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate while Poco x7pro uses AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate. Camon wins here but when handling the devices, they both look so good.

They both have IP68/69 rating.

Chipset and performance: during usage, both devices are very fast. I didn't experience any lag and they didn't even get hot. Gaming is also sweet on both devices but Poco x7pro houses dimensity 8400u which has a more improved GPU so I believe Poco wins here.

AI and features: these devices have nice features but I noticed that the Camon 40 premier has so much more. I can say that I have not seen any midrange device with more features.

Camera: Both of them have great cameras and their processors also help with good photo processing. However, the Camon 40 premier stands out. It has a periscope telephoto lens as well which is part of the triple camera setup. The pictures taken on both devices during the day come out superb but wait until nightfall and that's when you'll see the power of that flagship grade Sony camera on the Camon 40 premier. Trust me when I tell you that Tecno got it spot on. Video recording is nice on both devices however I noticed that when zooming in video on the Camon 40 premier, it becomes a bit glitchy but I believe a software update should fix this. Tecno steals the win in camera segment though.


Battery and charging: I noticed a weird battery drain on the Poco x7pro but after installing the software update, it stopped and the battery is solid. My friend hardly uses it so he didn't update it then. Camon 40 premier has a solid battery too but Poco x7pro edges it. Poco x7pro s up to 90watts charging while Camon 40 premier s up to 70watts charging. Both devices have IR blasters too.


Conclusion: if you want better display, more powerful cameras and more features, go for Camon 40 premier
If you want better gaming, tougher battery and quicker charging then go for the Poco x7pro

Good analysis.

Which one can you consider as good value for money?

Xiaomi 15 has better battery performance than those devices. Same with its predecessor Xiaomi 14. Go and check the reviews.

I emphasized on that. I wonder why you are ommiting it.

I use Poco F6 and trust me the battery optimisation is beneath the mi series.
Please, I want to acquire Poco f6( 5g 12/256), please advise me on whether to go ahead based on your experience with it.

Both are good value for money. It all depends on your priority.

Processing great.
Battery life I can't complain.
Camera is just fair(It is not it's strong point)
Charging is very fast.

One caveat though is when gaming because the phone pulls a lot of power from it's processor and GPU it tends to heat a bit.

That is not what we are saying.

Not everyone games and sometimes our tropical temperature is also a factor.

And not all Poco phones heat up like the F6. I Think the F6 Pro does a better Job at thermal control.

it's just the f6
I've been using Poco for atleast 4 years now and none had this issue

The f6 also wasn't like this initially, it started after subsequent updates, and it happens mostly when gaming it doesn't happen with normal usage

Hello guys, kindly suggest for me - which among these two phones should I go for:
Xiaomi 12pro 5G 256gb/12 and POCO F5 Pro 5G 256/12

NB: I spend a lot of time on the Internet because of the nature of my work; so my data is almost always on throughout the day. And I need a phone that can run multiple apps simultaneously without lagging unnecessarily.

Speed + performance are my major interests (I care less about Camera)
Regards..

Good Day house where can I buy original Poco f3 battery with 33 watt charge
The one I bought from a vendor here does show turbo charge,but when I check with an app battery guru I discovered it's been charged at 10 wat speed, and it's takes about 2hrs to fully charged
I went to Xiaomi office at wuse banex they told me I have to pay non refundable money of 27k so they'll order for me, so I don't know, I just need the one that'll full 33 watt
