In 2022 we got to know Xiaomi’s range of POCO X4 smartphones, with great success with consumers. This year, we are already prepared to meet the Xiaomi POCO X5 PRO 5G smartphones and the wait is (fortunately) about to end.
Everything points to the global launch of new products like the phone in question, with the brand itself releasing the teasers, or rather the promises of a new quality / price smartphone to hit stores during the 1st quarter of 2023.
Get ready for one of the best value for money smartphones of 2023
In fact, several of the current models in the POCO X4 range continue to be excellent buys this new year. Proof of this is the fact that we now have some equipment from this sub-brand of Xiaomi under test, with very positive performance.
For all that has now been exposed, it is only natural that expectations are high for his successors. According to the latest leaks, Xiaomi is actually ready to unveil the POCO X5 PRO 5G flagship in the coming weeks.
This is the likely POCO X5 Pro 5G smartphone
Interestingly, in a world full of information leaks, these Xiaomi cost / benefit mobile phones have remained surprisingly discreet. Nevertheless, we do have some convincing details with some of the product’s “specs”.
Firstly, the POCO X5 PRO 5G will have an AMOLED screen with high resolution, Full-HD+ standard, as well as a high image refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. The exact dimensions of the panel are, at the moment, one of several unknowns.
The photographic department will also include improvements. In particular, we will now have a 108 MP main sensor with wide-angle optics.
However, this one will not be alone, since in the images that have reached the Internet we also observe the presence of an ultra-wide-angle optic. At the moment, however, we do not know the exact resolution of its sensor. Finally, we also have a third camera with macro optics.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 778G will be the “heart” of this Xiaomi smartphone
The best of everything?
Get ready for Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 778G processor, mid/high range SoC for POCO X5 Pro. This “heart” will deliver great performance if Xiaomi does not fail in the already traditional optimization of its software with MIUI 14, based on Google’s Android 13.
We will also have a high-capacity battery with 5,000 mAh and fast charging up to 67 W of power. What’s more, we have dual speakers for a better multimedia experience and stereo audio.
The connectivity options of this Xiaomi POCO X5 Pro also include NFC and access to fifth generation mobile networks. That is, it will be another affordable (and powerful) model with 5G.
There is also an indication of at least 8 GB of RAM, as well as up to 256 GB of internal storage. It is possible, or even extremely likely, that the brand will make more variants available with different memory configurations once the phone hits the market.
Quality / price ratio will dictate the success of the POCO X5 Pro 5G
In short, the POCO X5 Pro 5G will essentially be the Redmi Note 12 Pro Speed Edition with a different name and possibly some changes to the Android smartphone design.
