A sleek design with an AMOLED display, a massive 5,000mAh battery, the latest Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 octa-core chipset from Qualcomm. Yes, that's the Poco F5, the latest midrange phone from Poco, with a starting price of ₹29,999 (8GB RAM and 256GB storage) and ₹33,999 (12GB RAM and 256GB storage) a well-built smartphone that should easily last a few years..
The Poco F5 looks premium and the Snowstorm White colour (that emulates snowflakes) I got lends a refreshing feel; it also comes in Carbon Black and Electric Blue. It's thin, just 7.9mm, weighs 181g (thanks to a plastic back and frame) and there is no camera bump. It can be described only as relatively compact since it has a big screen but the aluminium frames are flat and the edges aren't sharp, so the in-hand feel is comfortable. It comes with Gorilla Glass 5 on the front for extra protection. The Poco F5 also bundles a transparent case made from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU).
