The handset is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G SoC paired with Adreno 642L GPU for graphics and gaming needs. The chipset is paired with 6GB/8GB RAM and 128GB/256GB storage that is further expandable via a microSD card. The phone runs on Android 12 based on MIUI 14 custom skin out of the box. The company is promising two major Android upgrades and three years of security patches. The POCO X5 Pro packs a 5,000mAh battery with 67W fast charging support. Connectivity features include 5G, 4G LTE, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and a USB Type-C port for charging. There is a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for security, dual-stereo speakers, Hi-Res audio, and an IR blaster. The phone measures 162.91 X 76.03 X 7.9mm and weighs 181 grams. As for the cameras, the POCO X5 Pro has triple cameras on the back, comprising a 108MP primary Samsung ISOCELL HM2 sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP macro shooter. There is a 16MP snapper on the front for selfies and video chats. There is a 12-layer graphite sheet for heat dissipation and X-axis linear motor. POCO X5 Pro Pros & Cons & Detailed Review Pros - Thin and lightweight - Lovely AMOLED screen - Stereo speakers - Decent battery life Cons - Protruding rear camera’s wobble is irksome - Chipset could have been better - Runs Android 12 out of the box POCO X5 Pro Design Design-wise, it hasn’t changed much for the new POCO X-series smartphone. The POCO X5 Pro 5G still rocks the same flat edges and a centred punch-hole display as introduced last year. Even the ports, buttons, and stereo speakers placements are unchanged. The 3.5mm headphone jack is inconveniently placed on the top edge of the smartphone, alongside the speaker grille and an IR Blaster. The bottom edge packs a USB Type-C port sandwiched in between the secondary speaker grille and a SIM ejector tray. All the buttons are on the right fascia of the handset, with the power button rocking a fingerprint scanner, which unlocks the device in a jiffy. POCO X5 Pro 5G looks exactly like its predecessor. POCO has tweaked the handset’s back panel slightly to give it a new look. The X5 Pro 5G now comes with frosty glass around the back instead of glossy which does a good job of hiding fingerprints and smudges. There is no oversized camera bump. This has been replaced by a small rectangular module that houses triple cameras and an LED flash. The module has a shiny finish that extends all the way to the POCO branding and adds a good contrasty look to the phone. That said, the X5 Pro’s camera juts out of the frame quite a bit and makes the device wobble while lying flat on a surface. The smartphone is nicely built. It has a plastic unibody design that does not creak or flex when pressure is applied. The handset is also just about thin and lightweight to make it feel comfortably snug in hand. The phone comes in at 7.9mm in thickness and 181 grams. There’s even an IP53 rating for dust and splash protection. POCO X5 Pro Display The POCO X5 Pro 5G also shares a few traits with the X4 Pro in the display department. The 6.67-inch AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection, FHD+ (2,400 x 1,080p) resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and DCI-P3 wide colour gamut remain unchanged. POCO claims the X5 Pro 5G has slimmer bezels than the previous-gen X-series offering. The handset also has Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support available out of the box for true picture quality. The Display can exhibit over 1 billion colours through 10-bit technology and a high 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio. All this comes to an ultra-immersive viewing experience with life-like colours and deep blacks. The POCO smartphone is Widevine L1 certified too. The handset can stream content in FHD resolution from OTT platforms. The viewing angles are excellent on this device as well, while the 120Hz refresh rate feels smooth across UI and supported apps. The refresh rate on the POCO X5 Pro 5G can either adjust dynamically based on the content played on the screen to reduce power consumption or stay locked in at preferred settings between 60Hz and 120Hz. It has an excellent screen to look at both indoors and outdoors. The display is paired with Dolby Atmos-backed stereo speakers, which are loud and balanced for consuming multi-media stuff and playing games. The audio setup hardly distorts at maximum volume. POCO X5 Pro Performance The POCO X5 Pro 5G has Snapdragon 778G SoC ticking at its core. This is a 6nm chipset with eight Kyro 670 cores and up to 2.4GHz clock speed. The chipset is aided by Adreno 642L GPU and 6GB/ 8GB of RAM + 3GB of virtual RAM. As for the storage, the phone has up to 256GB UFS 2.2 ROM onboard, which is not user-expandable. The variant should be selected carefully but the performance is great. Synthetically, the handset performed better than some of the MediaTek Dimensity 1080 SoC-powered phones in the price range. The device delivered 5,25,085 points on AnTuTu, while its Geekbench 5’s multi-core score was 2,943. Additionally, there was no performance throttle while running 50 threads for half an hour on the CPU Throttle test. There is some minor heating on a 12-layered graphite cooling phone. But the device was pushed to its limit, and some thermal issues couldn’t be avoided. The two-year-old chipset coolly handled everything thrown at it. Free Fire Max at ‘Ultra’ graphics and ‘Normal’ resolution ran smoothly on the smartphone, while multi-tasking, with a dozen Chrome tabs open and a bunch of apps running in the background, worked like a charm. My only qualm with the POCO X5 Pro is that it doesn’t pack the latest mid-range Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 SoC from Qualcomm. The SoC is more power and battery-efficient than the Snapdragon 778G chipset. Let’s look at the POCO X5 Pro’s battery life. POCO X5 Pro Battery The POCO X5 Pro packs a 5,000mAh battery, which is the same as last year; however, its PC Mark 3.0 battery benchmark test score was significantly lower. The handset could only return a score of 12 hours and 15 minutes. POCO X4 Pro scored 16 hours and 57 minutes on the same test. The handset lasts close to a day between charges, with usage involving going through emails, checking Slack, streaming an episode or two of a web series, playing games, and browsing. There is no need to plug the phone in for charging before going to bed. Good thing though the X5 Pro is backed by a 67W fast charging solution, which takes around 45 minutes for a full charge from nothing. POCO X5 Pro Camera In terms of optics, the POCO X5 Pro 5G packs triple rear cameras, which comprise a 108MP Samsung ISOCELL HM2 primary sensor paired with an 8MP ultra-wide lens and a 2MP macro sensor, while the front camera is a 16MP shooter. The 108MP sensor captures images in 12MP resolution by default. The results looked good in sunny and bright environments. The images captured had ample detail, and there was hardly any issue with the sensor’s shutter speed and focus. HDR on POCO X5 Pro over-saturates the colours slightly. It does make the images more likeable and social media-ready, which is what most people want, but not ‘photophiles’. The latter group might not like the handset’s extra processing, where RGBs are enhanced to make the images look more vibrant and peppy. Moreover, the 108MP sensor creates a shallow depth of field, which blurs the background, if you get close to the object. The lowlight photography of the sensor was not quite as good as I expected, but the results were usable. The night mode does a nice job of brightening the image while keeping the noise level down and preserving the key details. The X5 Pro 5G uses a typical 8MP ultra-wide lens for landscape shots found in other budget and mid-range smartphones. The lens offers a wider 120-degree field of view (FOV) than the primary camera. However, due to its small sensor size, the images appeared gloomy, owing to the low dynamic range and contrast ratio, even in daylight. The colours also seemed muted. In low light, the sensor performed average at best. Besides this, the phone uses a 2MP macro shooter, which does a decent job of taking pictures of subjects up close. This is true as long as there is enough light source and frame stability. The X5 Pro doesn’t ship with a dedicated depth sensor, but there is a software-based portrait mode that offers impressive results with the 108MP primary camera. The edge detection and background blur both worked like a charm. The front-facing 16MP sensor of the phone captured selfies with good facial detailing and accurate skin tones when the sun was out. However, the portrait mode of the sensor was hit-and-miss as it had some trouble with edge detection. POCO X5 Pro Software, Network & Connectivity Software-wise, the POCO X5 Pro has the latest custom skin MIUI 14 running atop the slightly dated Android 12 OS out of the box. Much like the previous MIUI build, the new custom Android skin is also bereft of advertisements. The phone has a few pre-installed apps, but they can be uninstalled. MIUI 14 features are missing on the POCO X5 Pro, while the animation and UI look pretty much the same as the 13. This could be due to Android 12. Once Android 13 is rolled out, the device may get all the features of MIUI 14. POCO promises two years of major software and three years of security updates for the X5 Pro smartphone. The 5G-enabled smartphone supports as many as seven bands in India and is compatible with both Airtel 5G and Jio 5G networks.

Ans) Pros -Thin and lightweight -Lovely AMOLED screen -Stereo speakers -Decent battery life Cons -Protruding rear camera’s wobble is irksome -Chipset could have been better -Runs Android 12 out of the box 5) How is the review of Poco X5 Pro ? Ans) The POCO X5 Pro 5G does not come cheap, and the handset is the most-expensive X-series smartphone in India yet. But this shouldn’t come as a surprise to you as prices of the handsets across segments have been increasing lately. The X5 Pro 5G competes against the Realme 10 Pro Plus (review), with which it has a lot in common. However, the Realme smartphone runs Android 13 out of the box, which isn’t the case with the POCO phone. The X5 Pro also lags behind in the camera department, which has a 108MP HM2 primary sensor instead of the latest 108MP HM6 sensor. POCO X5 Pro does a better job than its counterpart in the performance and display departments. The handset also has a good audio setup to go with that beautiful screen. What’s more, the smartphone is more affordable than the Realme 10 Pro Plus. These things make the POCO X5 Pro 5G smartphone a good buy for its price, at least for now. The handset is selling in India at Rs 22,999 for the 6GB RAM variant, while the 8GB RAM option is priced at Rs 24,999.
