What reviewers say

In our words

• “

  A bold move for POCO: a 9000mAh battery in a slim body lasts two heavy days without hurting speed or screen quality; heat in long gaming and no 4K selfie video are minor flaws.

  • Liked: + Brilliant 1.5K 120Hz AMOLED with HDR10+ and Dolby Vision
  • Liked: + Excellent battery life and 100W charging
  • Liked: + Sturdy build with IP66 to IP69K ratings
  • Disliked: – Heats up fast in demanding games
  • Disliked: – Front camera cannot record 4K video

  A strong first Pro Max: premium build, superb screen, fast Dimensity 9500s and a two-day battery are hard to beat for the money, while the weak ultrawide and unpolished HyperOS 3 hold it back.

  • Liked: + Great in-hand feel and design
  • Liked: + Top-tier performance
  • Liked: + Two-day battery and dependable main camera
  • Disliked: – Rather bulky
  • Disliked: – Disappointing ultrawide photos
