POCO X5 5G, POCO X5 Pro 5G specifications, Design leaked via marketing material ahead of launch
POCO has in store for us ahead of their much-awaited POCO X5 Pro launch in India on February 6th 05:30 pm (IST).
The event will be live streamed through the company’s social media channels.
Tipster Sudhanshu Ambhore has tweeted a bunch of images which give us a glimpse of what the POCO X5 5G and the POCO X5 Pro 5G may have in store for us.
It turns out that the Poco X5 won’t be launching in India alongside its Pro sibling.
Instead, we’ll see the X5 in Europe.
So now the question is – will the X5 Pro be available in Europe too, or just India? There’s no answer to this yet, but at the rate the leaks are going we’ll surely find out in a few days at most.
Poco’s official teaser confirms that the X5 Pro will be available in the company’s iconic yellow colour. It also reveals that the Poco X5 Pro will go on sale through Flipkart after its launch in India.
While details surrounding the Poco X5 Pro are still under wraps, the recent announcement does reveal the phone’s design.
The official poster for the Poco X5 Pro reveals a large camera island on the back and a triple-camera setup with an LED flash module.
The back of the phone is reminiscent of Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 12 Pro Speed Edition, which was unveiled earlier this year.
Past leaks also suggests that the Poco X5 Pro will feature the same specifications as the Redmi Note 12 Pro Speed Edition.
The images reveal the specifications of the phone as well as its design.
POCO X5 Pro Price
According to the tipster, the POCO X5 Pro price in India is said to be in range of Rs 21,000 and Rs 23,000, excluding any bank offers. The phone will be available in three models: 6GB + 128GB and 8GB + 256GB model.
He states that the first sale of the device will kick off on February 11, after the price reveal on February 6.
POCO X5 5G and POCO X5 Pro 5G Specifications
The leaks seem to have been sourced from POCO X5 5G’s marketing materials. It reveals that the device will most likely feature a 6.67-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate.
Other display features that the device is expected to offer include 1200 nits of brightness and a 100 percent DCI-P3 colour gamut.
The brand has also revealed performance numbers of the Poco X5 Pro by posting its AnTuTu score of 545,093 points.
Ithas compared the performance of the device equipped with the Snapdragon 778G to other devices equipped with MediaTek’s new Dimensity 1080 chip.
This is definitely a shot at smartphones that have recently launched with the Dimensity 1080 SoC on board like the Realme 10 Pro series and the Redmi Note 12 Pro series.
The phone is tipped to be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 SoC. The leaks suggest that the device will pack a 5,000mAh battery with support for 33W fast charging.
In terms of optics, the phone is expected to offer a triple-rear camera setup with a 48MP primary camera, an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 2MP macro camera. It is also expected to offer a 13MP camera at the front.
The tipster also notes that the marketing materials were initially in a “non-english” language and were translated using Google translate. When asked about the availability of the vanilla POCO X5 in India, Ambhore replied that the phone will launch in Europe.
The Indian launch of the phone is doubtful as the POCO only launched the POCO X4 Pro 5G in India.
Even on the official Indian website, the company is only promoting the POCO X5 Pro, which seems to suggest that this will be the only device to launch in India.
The company has confirmed that a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G SoC will power the phone. Ambhore’s leaks build upon that by suggesting that the device will get a triple-rear camera setup with a 108MP primary camera, an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 2MP macro camera.
The device is expected to offer a 16MP front camera.
Other leaked features include support for 67W fast charging.
Both the phones are expected to launch globally on February 6th.
