Xiaomi POCO F5 Pro Review
Score: 79.5 / 100Xiaomi POCO F5 Pro is an incredible phone launched in May 2023, which counts with a big size 6.7 inches screen, and two cameras, a 64 MP back facing camera and a 16 mega-pixels front camera.
An excellent aspect of the Xiaomi POCO F5 Pro is its large 256 GB internal memory and though it doesn't come with an external SD slot, it it is more than enough to install lots of apps, games, songs, photos and videos without worrying about filling the cellphone.
It appears that Xiaomi forgot about weight optimization in this 7.2 oz device. Xiaomi sells this phone in 2 different colors, black and white. This phone is extremely slim and good-looking, with a thickness of just 0.34". The Xiaomi POCO F5 Pro is a very compact phone, taking into consideration it presents a 6.7" display and it is only 6.41 inches long.
This phone is equipped with two cameras, a 64 megapixels back facing camera and a 16 MP front side camera.
The Xiaomi POCO F5 Pro is equipped with a great 1440 x 3200 6.7-inches display, which makes it impossible to even see the pixels in the display.
The Xiaomi POCO F5 Pro features WiFi connectivity (and it can provide it to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), 5G blazing fast connection type, LTE-A (4G) , a really fast data connection and also HSPA+ connectivity (a slower 4G variation) and fast 3G data connection, using HSDPA technologies. This cellphone works with a Nano SIM card to connect to GSM networks.
The Xiaomi POCO F5 Pro packs an amazing 5160 mAh non-removable battery that can keep this cellphone running for several hours without having to charge it at all. An issue to take into consideration is that the Xiaomi POCO F5 Pro's battery isn't replaceable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it starts to lose its charge, though with such a big battery you will probably replace this device before that becomes a real problem.
This phone also includes a wide range of interesting features such as Fingerprint ID, Wireless charging compatibility, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your device close to another NFC device or tag), Infrared Port, Bluetooth (5.3 ) and GPS Navigation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.
This phone is probably a great choice for you no matter if you are looking for a gaming device, are a photography fan, are looking for a phone for work or want it mostly for social networks.
