Xiaomi Poco F7 Ultra Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Xiaomi POCO F7 Ultra - the first full-fledged flagship?

Smartphones from the Chinese company Poco have always enjoyed simply wild popularity among the audience. The reason was simple and was the price of the devices. It was literally always more attractive than that of opponents with similar technical characteristics. However, in 99% of such situations, the manufacturer managed to achieve a more democratic pricing policy by saving either on assembly materials, or on photo capabilities, or on other components. But it seems that in the case of the hero of today's review, the developer did without the aforementioned simplifications.

The appearance of the new product has changed significantly compared to that of its predecessor. A round block of photo modules, an LED flash located outside it, rich colors of the rear panels made of high-quality polycarbonate, a metal edging, thin frames of a 6.67-inch AMOLED screen with a built-in fingerprint scanner look relevant and really beautiful. It's even surprising how such an ergonomic monoblock found room for water protection according to IP68 standards. The AMOLED panel will please you with an impressive maximum brightness of 3200 nits, a resolution of 3200x1440 pixels, and a refresh rate of 120 Hz. The image will not disappoint with the realism of color rendering, in addition, the touch panel is extremely responsive.

The most important competitive advantage of the phablet is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, working in tandem with 12 GB of RAM and an Adreno 830 video adapter. The numbers in the benchmarks are off the charts (more than three million points in AnTuTu), and all existing games and applications function without the slightest hint of freezes and slowdowns. There is throttling, but its values ​​are far from critical, and manifestations are usually noticeable in synthetic tests. Of course, the modern device is not without a capacious battery of 6000 mAh. It guarantees more than 8-9 hours of screen time. At the same time, the battery has acquired both an amazingly powerful 120 W wired charger and a wireless analog of 50 W. The size of the permanent memory can reach 256/512 GB.

Budget-conscious photography enthusiasts can also consider buying the gadget. The main 50-megapixel Omnivision Light Hunter 800 sensor, a telephoto lens of the same 50 MP received hybrid stabilization and produce highly detailed pictures even in the evening. Dynamic events will not disappoint with blurs. There is also a 32-megapixel wide-angle lens, but it is simpler and is more suitable for daytime shots. Stereo speakers give a loud (almost 90 decibels) and at the same time balanced sound. Support for NFC contactless payments and 5G networks, an IR port for controlling household appliances strengthen our confidence in the international success of the device.
