Hardware Score:6.2 / 10

Flow AMOLED Fluidity, 108MP Sensor, and Proven Snapdragon 778G Muscle

The POCO X5 Pro 5G cemented POCO's reputation for maximum performance per dollar. Utilizing flexible Flow AMOLED tech that shaved thickness to 7.9mm and weight to 181g, it delivered cool Snapdragon 778G gaming speeds, 4K video, and rapid 67W charging.

Key Strengths

  • Reliable Snapdragon 778G chipset provides stable, cool 60fps mid-range gaming
  • Flexible Flow AMOLED display enables narrow bezels and thin 7.9mm profile
  • 108MP primary camera captures high-resolution daylight shots and 4K video
  • Rapid 67W Turbo Charging completes a full recharge in 45 minutes
  • Includes 3.5mm headphone jack, stereo speakers, and IR blaster

Points to Consider

  • Main camera lacks hardware Optical Image Stabilization (EIS only)
  • Omitted the microSD card slot found on the previous generation
  • Polycarbonate frame and rear can feel plasticky without a case
