POCO F7 Pro review

The POCO F7 Series came out earlier this year (in March), including the F7 Pro and the lineup’s first-ever Ultra model. Anyway, back to our main topic: we’re comparing the vanilla POCO F7 against its Pro sibling. The POCO F7 Pro gets the same look as the Ultra model, rocking a two-tone finish with the top panel having a high gloss finish and the other large half is matte to the touch. While both phones almost measure the same thickness at 8.2 mm, the POCO F7 is slightly wider and taller than the Pro model, so it’s a bit hefty in the hand. On the other hand, the POCO F7 Pro has the usual 6.67-inch AMOLED panel but with a higher screen resolution of Wide Quad HD+ (3200 x 1440 pixels). Both phones feature dual stereo speakers and are definitely loud, but the POCO F7 Pro sounds clearer in the mids and highs compared to the F7 that goes a bit muffled at max volumes. The POCO F7 Pro, despite the smaller screen, provides clearer audio, while the POCO F7 slaps with its larger screen and a respectable sound stage. The Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 is said to be a step behind the 8 Elite, yet two steps ahead of the 8 Gen 2, which powered last year’s POCO F6 Pro.
