The segmented launch cycle for both devices will keep the buzz going for a while on media.

The standard Poco variant sports a whopping 12Gigs of memory with color options including Electric Blue, Snowstorm White, and Carbon Black. The phone also has a lower-end configuration with 8Gigs of memory for budget-conscious consumers, though in both cases, 256Gigs of storage comes as default. 


In other specifications, the Vanilla F5 device has Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 2 SoC based on 4nm processing and a 5000mAh battery rechargeable via rapid 67W power brick. Behind the shell lies a 64MP primary camera stabilized with hardware (OIS). Assisting cameras include 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro shooter. 

The highlighting feature of this device is a 6.67-inch Full HD+ AMOLED screen with a refresh rate of 120Hz. Also located on the rims are the 3.5mm audio port and a fingerprint reader embedded in the power key. Poco F5 5G will start at a meager price of 365 USD (~PKR 104,000).

Xiaomi Poco F5 Pro 

The F5 Pro is more versatile than its counterpart featuring 8+128GB, 12+256GB, and 12+512GB of memory configurations. Its screen has 1440p QHD+/2K resolution combined with 480Hz touch sampling rate and 120Hz refresh rate. It’s also decent in size, boasting a 6.67” AMOLED panel with Gorilla Glass 5 protection.


Flip the phone over to find a sizable primary lens featuring a 64MP OmniVision OV64B sensor followed by an 8MP ultra-wide 120-degree FOV lens and a 2MP depth mapper. For selfies, a 16MP shooter endows its punch-hole cutout in the screen.

With a slightly extended 5160mAh battery, the Poco F5 Pro backs a wired 67W charging support and a wireless 30W input, making it the company’s first-ever wireless-charging phone. Moreover, the phone’s energy-efficient Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip will help run the phone for extended periods. Its retail will begin at 449 USD (~PKR 128,000) for the base 8GB variant.
