With much anticipation, the POCO X7 series is official in the Philippines with a starting promo price of Php 13.2k for the base X7.

The X7 comes with a Dimensity 7300 processor, and its a solid pick for a midrange offering based on our experience with several phones using the said chip last year. You also get an IP68 rating for added peace of mind against water splashes, along with a 50-megapixel IMX882 main camera with OIS. Keeping the lights on the POCO X7 is a 5110mAh battery that supports 45w charging.

The X7 Pro, on the other hand, debuts the Dimensity 8400 globally, which is a powerful midrange chip that can give the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 a run for the money. The X7 Pro also has an IP68 rating and a 50-megapixel IMX882 main camera with OIS–and it can shoot 4K video at 60FPS. You also get a large 6000mAh battery on the X7 Pro that supports 90w charging.

The POCO X7 Series will be available in the Philippines from January 9, with the promo price applicable until January 19.
