Xiaomi enters the table with the new Poco F5 and F5 Pro

Xiaomi, through its Poco sub-brand, unveiled on Tuesday two of the most interesting phones of the current year. We talked, of course, about Small F5 and Small F5 Promembers of one of the most successful families on the market.

Poco F5 Pro, as the name suggests, the more advanced of the two. It has some aesthetic differences, a more powerful processor, a slightly larger battery, and a more advanced screen. This is the ideal model for those who want a superior experience without resorting to high-end models.

Poco F5, on the other hand, He will strive to find that phone for less than 400 euros that everyone recommends. And he has many ballots to achieve this. It will debut with the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2, which promises superior performance over the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 that dominated the top Android devices just two years ago, has an attractive design, has a screen and a reasonably good photo module, and will sell for a very competitive price.

Poco F5 and F5 Pro: Specifications

The Poco F5 Pro welcomes the details that the brand has left out in this price range.

One of the most interesting readings of the Poco F5 Pro is that the sub-brand is finally it opens the door to certain technologies that have not yet been offered in this price segment. For example: a fingerprint scanner located under the screen, or wireless charging technology.

These details fit, of course. to the excellent Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, a smart photomodule, 67W fast charging and a large AMOLED screen with a frequency of 120 Hz and WQHD + resolution, which even supports the Dolby Vision HDR standard. The result is a very balanced product in terms of features, reasonably priced for what it offers and, above all, competitive with what is available on the market.

The Poco F5 has everything a “normal” person could need

Poco F5 repeats that great balance between performance and price that you mentioned about the Pro model. In this case, obviously, the brand has taken a few steps back in aspects such as the processor or the screen, but the experience remains clearly above what a “normal” person needs in everyday life.

If we add to this very interesting starting price – which is likely to fall in a few months, as we are used to in this type of product – and the difficult market situation in the range of 200 to 400 euros, it seems obvious that this product has many options to become a bestseller.
