For that price, you get an aluminum frame, glass back, and a screen with thin bezels covering 94.23 percent of the front. Large radius curves are designed to make the device more comfortable to hold.
According to Poco, the device is sturdier than previous models. The housing can withstand bending forces up to 70 kilograms. Thanks to the IP68 rating, the device is also protected against water and dust.
The Poco F7 features a 50 MP main camera with a Sony IMX882 sensor and optical image stabilization. For portrait photography, Poco claims the camera offers multiple focal lengths: 26 mm, 35 mm, and 52 mm. Presumably, these are software tricks to simulate depth of field, as the main camera doesn’t have multiple lenses. An 8 MP wide-angle camera is also present. We wouldn’t expect too much from that.
Price
Poco opts for a powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 inside. The Poco F7 is available in black, white, and silver. The recommended prices are as follows:
- 12 GB RAM + 256 GB storage: €449.90
- 12 GB RAM + 512 GB storage: €499.90
The device is available immediately.
