Poco F7 Ultra review: Flagship performance, mid-range price

The Poco F7 Ultra has one of the fastest chips on the market, the Snapdragon 8 Elite, a massive battery, a lovely display, speedy wireless charging and a well-specced triple camera system on the rear.

The phone has a completely flat screen, with boxy sides and a flat rear panel with subtle curves at the edges.

It also boasts Poco Shield Glass ’, the brand’s toughest-ever screen coating, which is said to boost drop resistance and scratch protection.

The Poco F7 Ultra has one of the most powerful chips on the market, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite.

The screen covers the DCI -P3 wide gamut and produces highly accurate colours with excellent contrast levels.

It also supports up to 3840Hz PWM dimming rates, ensuring a flicker-free experience at low brightness levels.

This display has another trick up its sleeve: a co-processing chip called the VisionBoost D7 .

The Poco F7 Ultra runs HyperOS 2 , a heavily customised version of Android 15 found on many Xiaomi , Redmi and Poco phones.

HyperOS has a very slick look, and it’s very speedy.

It has a 5300mAh battery pack, more than your typical flagship, but not quite matching the latest silicon-carbon models that hover around the 6000mAh mark.
