Here are our five favorite features of the phone.
POCO F7 Pro top 5 features - Mid-range price, high-end performance
1. Tough body, pretty unique design - Aside from the dual-texture rear panel design, the phone features a glass front and rear panel with a metal frame in between. It is both eye-catching and premium-looking. You can also find aircraft-grade aluminum accents all over the phone.
The glass panel is even protected by Corning's Gorilla Glass 7i, which can withstand drops from up to one meter, even on some rough surfaces.
What adds to the look is that the phone is IP68 dust and water resistant. This makes it pretty and resilient.

2. Pretty good display - IT is not an LTPO AMOLED panel, but the phone comes with a 6.67-inch Flow AMOLED DotDisplay with a 3,200 x 1,440 resolution, a 526ppi, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 3,200 nits peak brightness. It also has a 480Hz touch sampling rate, a 3,840Hz PWM dimming, and 12-bit color depth. It is Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protected.
The bezel around the panel is super slim and nearly symmetrical.
POCO is also boasting that it comes with a circular polarization technology that enables the panel to closely mimic natural light for more comfortable viewing.
Under the panel is the ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, too.

3. Monster specs for the price - Inside are the 4nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, an Adreno GPU, 12GB LPDDR5X RAM, and a 256GB/512GB UFS 4.1 storage.
The processor is cooled with the LiquidCool Technology 4.0 with a 3D Dual-channel IceLoop System. It supposedly dissipates heat enough for it to maintain peak performance even under heavy use.
4. Massive 6,000mAh battery - Powering the phone is the large capacity battery despite the phone's slim 8.12mm thickness. It features 90W HyperCharge, which POCO is claiming will charge from 1 percent to 100 percent in 37 minutes.

5. High-performing primary camera - At the back are the 50MP f/1.6 main camera with 1/1.55-inch Light Fusion 800 image sensor and OIS and an 8MP f/2.2 ultra-wide angle camera with an LED flash. While in front is the 20MP selfie shooter.
POCO is proud to say that the F7 Pro's cameras blend powerful hardware with AI-driven enhancements, which should deliver some of the best HDR photos from any POCO phone yet.
It also comes with an AI Creativity Assistant, which offers editing tools that should make it easy for users to edit and refine their photos and videos.
