Xiaomi POCO X7 Pro smartphone, 8+256GB, yellow, 50MP main camera with OIS, 6000mAh (typ) battery with 90W HyperCharge, IP68, AI features (no charger included), 2 year Warranty

I’ve been using the Poco X7 Pro for a while now, and overall it’s a really solid phone for the price. The standout feature is definitely the performance — everything feels fast and smooth, whether it’s everyday apps or more demanding games. It rarely slows down, which is impressive for a phone in this price range. The display is another highlight. The AMOLED screen is bright, sharp, and fluid thanks to the 120Hz refresh rate. Watching videos and scrolling through apps feels great. Battery life is also excellent — I can comfortably get through a full day, sometimes more, and the fast charging is a huge bonus. That said, it’s not perfect. The camera is decent but nothing special. Photos look good in daylight, but in lower light or with the ultra-wide lens, quality drops a bit. If you’re really into photography, this might not be the best choice. The software is okay, but there are a few preinstalled apps and occasional ads, which can be a bit annoying. Also, during long gaming sessions, the phone can get slightly warm, though it hasn’t been a major issue for me. Overall, the Poco X7 Pro offers excellent value for money. It’s a great choice if you want strong performance, a great screen, and long battery life without spending too much — just don’t expect flagship-level cameras or a perfectly clean software experience.

Switching to this phone from a Nokia 8.1 was an absolute breeze, since I could use the Google data transfer thing to do it easily. The screen is excellent, smooth and responsive at 120 Hz. Plenty of storage at least for me, and there was little bloatware on the device, and whatever bloatware there was was very easy to uninstall. It is way faster than the phone I had before, and it can comfortably run most games at a smooth 60/120 fps. For me, it was great value for money, since this phone can rival other flagship phones on the market right now. The battery life is alright, nothing major, but the 90W quick charging makes up for it as it can charge in around half an hour. The phone itself looks quite sleek, nothing amazing since it is just a thin brick with a screen, but the camera quality is solid as well, and all of the physical buttons work perfectly. However, it's slightly disappointing that it doesn't come with a charger in the UK, but it did come with a phone ring, which was nice.

My previous phone was a Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro, the same manufacturer as this phone, just made in 2021. I bought the 12GB and 512GB storage option for the X7 Pro. The phone itself is well made, no charger included on mine. There are a USB type C cable, an ejection tool, for the Sim card and a rather strange looking "ring holder". It feels reasonably premium in quality, placed in the case then it feels just the same as any other protected phone. The buttons are responsive. I did buy my own case, preferring one with a cover that closes, but the silicone open type black case that is supplied is decent enough. There seems to be a plastic film covering the screen, I have left mine on, no issues when using the fingerprint scanner by doing so. On first use I was most impressed, the fluidity of the phone, when opening or moving from apps or functions, is both fast and very responsive. That responsiveness does not seem to change much when it has been in use for a full day and none of the apps used have been closed. That is most apparent. With 12GB of RAM and the huge 512GB of storage it seems that my needs are covered for some considerable time. Having been familiar with this brand of phone, with my previous 10 Pro, and having used Android phones for many years, it was ok when setting this one up, as was the general functionality of it. However, there are some functions, like camera settings, that might not be so obvious when selected. Like clicking "Dynamic Shot", have not got a clue what that means, no help nor any manual included then I'll probably need to hunt the Internet for meaning. The camera itself is a upgrade over the pretty decent camera on the 10 Pro that I had. You can notice some sharpening and "over processing" on some shots, if using the cameras AI and HDR type functions, but not overly bad. Whilst that can be subjective I have been very impressive with the photos, the clarity and detail, with OIS, optical image stabilisation, really does a great job here. So, both video and photos are very well done, overall. The phone does come with lots of pre installed apps, many of them can be removed. Some though are baked into the device and will not be removed easily. Some of those are Xiaomi's own and have no removal option. This is not any different to other phones that I have used, buying an Android phone without some baked in apps from the manufacturer is impossible these days. They are not overly intrusive though. The screen size is comparable to my 10 Pro, and so I have accepted that a six inch plus is the norm these days, and it is responsive to use and seems, so far, to be usable in the bright day light with the sun shining on the screen. The speakers are great, loud and the sound does not seem to distort. One being on the top and the other at the bottom. Some negatives..... No charger included, I knew that as it is mentioned in the advert. Still it would be a nice to have item for the fast charging of the large battery that has lasted, so far, for well over a full days use. In fact, taking lots of video and photos and a lot of other use, the battery level still showed 60% at the end of the day. The std X7 has a dedicated 2MP Macro camera. The Pro model, the one I bought, does not. There were occasions when having that Macro camera was VERY useful, I miss that. However, many phones do not seem to have those these days. The fingerprint scanner, whilst being great, is on the bottom of the front of the screen. Impossible to use single handed whilst holding the phone. On the 10 Pro it was positioned on the On / Off button on the side. Being low down on the front, no it is awkward, but usable. Overall, especially for the price whilst on sale, it is an exceptional phone. Nice to see the 5G capabilities, service provider and Sim dependant. Great functionality, capacity and brilliant screen, with a two years warranty. Android 15, system update when first powered up, seems to be the std. No charger, front on screen fingerprint scanner and no macro camera, being my negatives. Recommended and I hope this review has helped you.

For the price there is not much that can beat this phone- it’s fast, stylish, great battery life and call quality is super. The camera takes excellent vibrant detailed photos and the phone is quite slim although a little heavier than some phones. Cases and screen protectors are easy to find and cheap too. Android 15 out of the box and mine did 2 security updates within the first hour of using it. The only downside to Xiaomi phones - and this one is no exception- is the amount of bloatware on the phone. The best way to deal with it is to uninstall all the apps you don’t want - some of the Chinese supplied ones you can’t uninstall but you can hide them away in a folder so they don’t bother you- just remember to disable notifications from them under “settings”. Apart from the bloatware once sorted this is an exceptional phone for the price. Recommended- there’s really no need to spend 5 times the money on a premium android or iOS which basically does the same things as this Xiaomi. Save yourself some money and you won’t regret it😊

Un móvil top a un precio muy contenido. La relación calidad/precio no puede ser mejor. Va súper fluido con sus 12 + 6 GB de RAM en la versión de 512 GB. La imagen es muy buena y la cámara extraordinaria. Ha sido una muy buena compra.

Very satisfied with the phone 👍 The free delivery was fast, even faster than expected!

High quality and good value but my delivery was delayed so only 4 stars

Alles auf deutsch, keine Probleme mit dem Handy, bin überaus zufrieden. Der Versand war etwas länger, aufgrund der Herkunft des Handys. In D war es zu diesem Zeitpunkt nicht bestellbar mit dem Speicher und in dieser Farbe. Der Preis war auch unschlagbar.
