Poco started the year with some entry-level phones and now has refreshed its mid-range X-series with the Poco X5 and X5 Pro. We’ll be covering everything about the Poco X5 Pro 5G in this article. We will go through the specs, features, availability, and expected price of the Poco X5 Pro in Nepal.
Poco X5 Pro Overview:
Design
This is by far the thinnest and lightest phone in the X series. The lighter body design provides a more comfortable feel for long-lasting play. The side fingerprint unlocks design ensures easier use and faster unlock. The Poco X5 Pro doesn’t necessarily look different from its predecessor. It retains the wide camera module design on the back and comes with flat frames. It is available in three color options: Blue, black, and, Yellow.
The classic stylish flat frame is back, with a unique design featuring a black bezel and yellow buttons. The back cover features a 2.5D panel and a unique finish to produce a glowing look and comfortable feel.
Display
Poco X5 Pro brings a beautiful 10-bit OLED screen. The 6.67-inch screen sports the same 120Hz refresh rate and 240Hz touch sampling rate as its predecessor. But the X5 Pro also has HDR10+ and Dolby Vision support along with a 1920Hz PWM dimming to protect the eyes in low-light situations. There’s a Gorilla Glass 5 protection on the front for accidental drops and scratches.
POCO X5 Pro has adopted a flagship flexible AMOLED display that continues to deliver on power, performance, and color. Lighter and thinner than ever, the screen bezel is smaller for an even more striking visual impact.
Cameras
Moving on, the smartphone flaunts a triple camera setup at the back. The primary sensor is a 108MP ISOCELL HM2 sensor from Samsung, which is accompanied by an 8MP ultrawide and a 2MP macro sensor.
The 108MP main camera combines an ultra-large sensor with the power of 9-in-1 pixel-binning technology for amazing resolution; Even in the dark. With the powerful computing capacity, the shutter and imaging speed are greatly improved. Thanks to the upgraded Snapdragon 778G chip, you will be able to record 4K recordings from the back camera. For selfies, the punch-hole cutout on the front encloses a 16MP camera.
Performance
The X5 Pro takes a massive jump in performance compared to its predecessor. Last year, Poco X4 Pro replaced the Snapdragon 860 on its predecessor with a mid-tier Snapdragon 695. So Poco makes amends this year by including the Snapdragon 778G on the X5 Pro. The Snapdragon 778G is built on TSMC’s 6nm process and with four cores based on the ARM Cortex-A78 architecture, excellent performance, and experience are guaranteed. The integrated X53 5G modem supports global 5G high-speed networks.
