Poco is preparing to introduce its X7 5G smartphone series in India on January 9, offering two models: the Poco X7 5G and Poco X7 Pro 5G. The devices will be sold exclusively through Flipkart, with the company already teasing their design and features on social media platforms.
The Poco X7 5G series is expected to showcase distinct design elements. The standard Poco X7 5G will have a centrally positioned squircle-shaped camera module on the back, while the Pro version will feature a pill-shaped camera setup placed in the top-left corner. Both variants will maintain Poco’s iconic black-and-yellow color scheme, with the Pro model likely offering an exclusive black-and-green dual-tone finish. Additionally, rumors indicate that the base Poco X7 5G might also be available in silver and green color options.
Poco X7 Series Camera (Expected)
The Poco X7 Series is expected to shine in the camera department. Both the standard and Pro models are anticipated to feature a 50MP primary camera, with the Pro variant likely using the advanced Sony IMX882 sensor for improved photography. For selfies, the standard Poco X7 may include a 20MP front-facing camera.
Poco X7 Series Performance (Expected)
In terms of performance, the Poco X7 Pro 5G is expected to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8400-Ultra processor, while the standard model will likely be equipped with the Dimensity 7300-Ultra chipset. The Pro variant is expected to come with a large 6,000mAh battery that supports 90W fast charging, whereas the base model will likely feature a 5,110mAh battery with 45W charging support.

The Poco X7 5G series is also expected to offer impressive displays. The base model is rumored to come with a 6.67-inch AMOLED screen featuring 1.5K resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection. The Pro model is expected to sport a similar 6.67-inch CrystalRez 1.5K AMOLED display, offering an enhanced and high-quality viewing experience.
