The POCO F7 has officially landed, redefining what affordable upper‑midrange phones can offer. It blends high‑end performance with premium aesthetics—all without breaking the bank.
Powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and paired with LPDDR5X RAM plus UFS 4.1 storage, the F7 handles demanding tasks and multitasking with ease. With 12 GB of RAM and storage options of 256 GB or 512 GB, it keeps up with your app-heavy lifestyle. The device features LiquidCool 4.0 and IceLoop—an advanced vapor‑chamber cooling system—to maintain peak performance during prolonged gaming or productivity sessions. (cincodias.elpais.com)
Visually, the F7 stands out. It sports a large 6.83‑inch AMOLED screen with 1.5K resolution (2,772 × 1,280 px) and a blazing 120 Hz refresh rate. Its peak brightness hits a remarkable 3,200 nits at the brightest area—ideal for sunny-day use. The screen also supports 2,560 Hz touch sampling in Game Turbo mode, high-frequency PWM dimming, and DC dimming features to reduce eye strain. (cincodias.elpais.com)
This phone feels solid too. Its combination of glass back and metal frame weighs in at around 216 g and measures 8.2 mm thick. It boasts an IP68 rating for dust and water protection, plus TÜV SÜD 5‑star build-quality certification. The available colors—Black, White, and Cyber Silver (with a futuristic metal finish)—add visual flair. (cincodias.elpais.com)
Battery Life & Charging
The F7 houses a massive 6,500 mAh battery—the largest ever in a POCO F-series. It supports 90 W fast charging, reaching approximately 80% in just 30 minutes, and 22.5 W reverse charging to power up other devices on the go. (cincodias.elpais.com)
Under the hood, there’s 5G compatibility across multiple bands, Bluetooth 6.0, Wi‑Fi 7, NFC, dual SIM slots, an under‑display fingerprint reader, and facial recognition.
