The Poco X7 series is finally here and tries to capture the brand's ethos quite nicely: performance, aspirational brand for the Gen Z audience, and challenger mindset. Both these devices offer a perfect balance of performance and value, which is tough to get in this price bracket, and I will break down both these phones in a bit.
The Poco X7 is packed with features to the brim and, on paper, is a great device for everyday use. Starting with the display, the peak brightness is on par with the competition, and the additional IP rating offers consumers peace of mind. It is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultra and is a decent processor for everyday tasks. The phone also packs AI features and comes with 3+4 years of software update. The camera isn't the strongest highlight, but its performance credentials make it an excellent choice for its price segment.
