Poco X4 Pro 5G Review: Best Mid-Range Phone?

The Poco X3 Pro was expected to succeed the Poco F1, a favorite of gamers and fans alike. With its Snapdragon 800-series SoC, it did demonstrate its value in games and overall performance, but it wasn’t a standout gadget. The new Poco X4 Pro is the successor to the X3 Pro, although Poco gave it a 600-series 5G SoC rather than a SoC that was as least as powerful as its predecessor.

Poco X4 Pro 5G design

There are three color options for the Poco X4 Pro 5G: Poco Yellow, Laser Blue, and Laser Black. Poco’s design decisions are obviously intended to appeal to a younger audience. The glass rear panel of the X4 Pro 5G is striking and gives the device a premium appearance.

I wouldn’t suggest the Poco X4 Pro to folks who like one-handed use because it is a tall, weighty phone. Due to the rectangular slab utilized for the camera module, which almost fills the whole width of the phone, it weighs 205g and is quite top-heavy.
