Erencan YılmazNow, with the coming of POCO X7 Pro, making huge improvements on X6 Pro, POCO is setting even new standards, even in the mid-range segment with its revolutionary features and an Iron Man Edition to boot. In this detailed overview, let us see what justifies the star-studded spotlight this device takes.
Performance Leap
Where the X7 Pro begins is by bringing in the Dimensity 8400-Ultra processor, quite an upgrade over the prevalent Dimensity 8300 Ultra on the X6 Pro. The new chipset runs for an AnTuTu score of 1,704,330, radically up from the 1,396,547 score of the X6 Pro. The main highlights of the changeovers include:
- All-Big-Core design with speeds up to 3.25 GHz
- 50% increase in AI performance Improved Mali-G720 GPU
- LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage
Display Technology
The POCO X7 Pro does jump the predecessor a lot when it comes to display. There is a 6.67-inch CrystalRes 1.5K AMOLED screen, with an option to reach up to 3200 nits peak brightness, while the X6 Pro stops at 1800 nits. It uses Corning Gorilla Glass 7i, much stronger than the Gorilla Glass 5 on the X6 Pro. Besides that, the X7 Pro features a 2560Hz touch sampling rate for instantaneous responses, up to 1920Hz PWM dimming, which reduces eye fatigue significantly, and thereby makes it as good as any bleeding edge display.
Camera Innovation
The POCO X7 Pro introduces a vastly improved camera system, elevating its photography capabilities well beyond those of the X6 Pro. Its primary camera features a 50MP Sony IMX882 sensor with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) and a wide f/1.5 aperture, allowing for sharper and cleaner low-light images compared to the X6 Pro’s 64MP primary camera with an f/1.7 aperture.
The X7 Pro also boasts an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 20MP front-facing camera that can record videos at 4K@60fps, which represents a big increase from the 16MP on the front camera of the X6 Pro. This one further only supports 4K @ 30 fps. In addition, the X6 Pro packs a 2MP macro camera to complement its camera setup. This is absent on the X7 Pro, placing more emphasis on high-quality photography.
