The POCO X7 Pro and POCO F5 Pro share a 6.67-inch AMOLED form factor and 5G connectivity, but differ considerably across chip architecture, display resolution, camera setup, storage technology, battery capacity, and charging. The X7 Pro is a 2025 India launch; the F5 Pro is a 2023 global release that was never officially sold in India.
How do they compare on general specs and build?
Both phones support dual SIM and 5G, and carry a one-year manufacturer warranty. The X7 Pro is the newer model, launched in India in January 2025, while the F5 Pro launched globally in May 2023 and was never sold in India. The X7 Pro is also lighter and slimmer by a meaningful margin.

How do the displays compare?
Both phones use 6.67-inch AMOLED panels with 120 Hz refresh rates and 480 Hz touch sampling. The F5 Pro wins on resolution (WQHD+ at 526 ppi vs FHD+ at 446 ppi), making text and detail sharper. The X7 Pro counters with significantly higher peak brightness (3,200 nits vs 1,400 nits), better screen protection (Gorilla Glass 7i vs 5), and full IP68 water resistance — a meaningful durability advantage.

How do the processors and performance specs compare?
The X7 Pro runs the newer MediaTek Dimensity 8400-Ultra (2025), achieving over 1.7 million on AnTuTu — approximately 20% faster than its own predecessor. The F5 Pro uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 (2022), which remains competitive for gaming and multitasking but uses the older LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. The X7 Pro's LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage deliver faster app loads and file transfers.

How do the cameras compare?
The X7 Pro uses a Sony LTY-600 50 MP main sensor with a wide f/1.5 aperture and OIS, enabling better low-light shots, paired with an 8 MP ultra-wide. The F5 Pro offers a 64 MP OIS main camera with a triple rear setup that adds a 2 MP macro lens, and can record up to 8K video at 24fps. The X7 Pro's larger sensor aperture gives it a low-light edge; the F5 Pro wins on resolution and video ceiling.
