Do you often fall into a dilemma when buying a phone? Do you want a powerful chip, a top-notch flagship display, and excellent photographic performance? But such multipurpose flagships with a balanced configuration are not only very rare, but their price can reach 800-1200 US dollars. So some configurations can only be foregone if the budget is limited? No.
POCO recently officially announced that it will launch its dual F-series flagships, the POCO F5 and POCO F5 Pro, on May 9. Among them, the POCO F5 Pro, which is positioned as the “all-terrain flagship”, has attracted extra attention. What are your strengths? Does it live up to its name of "multipurpose flagship"? Let's see it.
Diploid definition, how powerful is the first WQHD+ screen?
The display is a "must" for flagship phones. These days, most phones come standard with 120Hz AMOLED screens, which is not surprising. The rare thing is that POCO F5 Pro goes a step further that it is equipped with the first WQHD+ AMOLED screen in a POCO phone, which is one of the rarest features in its class.
With this superior screen, the resolution of the POCO F5 Pro can be doubled compared to before. In actual use, this WQHD+ high-resolution screen brings a delicate viewing experience. For example, this screen can display a clearer image when watching an ultra-high-definition movie with a resolution of 1080P or higher; the texture will also be clear and sharp when you zoom in to see the details of the text; You can also clearly see the letters of the address in applications such as maps with very small display text.
The definition is only one of the keys of the emblematic screens. Is the brightness up to it? Issues such as eye protection at night can affect the daily wearing experience. Many times, when using the phone outdoors in the sun, the screen is often not clearly visible, but this problem will not occur, and you can use the phone anytime and anywhere if you have POCO F5 Pro with 1400 nits. ultra-high gloss.
And for "night owls" who like to use their phones at night, this screen is also very friendly. It has 1920Hz high frequency PWM dimming. Compared to most low-frequency PWM dimming displays, POCO F5 Pro is easier on the eyes and less prone to eye strain and other issues.
High level chip and large memory, Play without limits
On the chip that is related to performance, POCO F5 Pro uses one of the best processors at present, the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. As a new generation processor from Qualcomm, it is made using the most advanced 4nm process from TSMC, and its performance is very great. How powerful is it? According to actual measurement, its AnTuTu running score easily exceeds 1 million, which is in the forefront of all current mobile phone performance. Even in a game with extremely high configuration requirements like Genshin Impact, it can run a smooth 58FPS image. This performance proves that it can already play almost all mobile games smoothly, and game lovers can play as much as they want!
With a high-level chip, heat dissipation can't be left behind. POCO F5 Pro is equipped with LiquidCool 2.0 and HyperBoost technology, as well as a newly designed high-efficiency vapor chamber, which can solve heat dissipation problems during games, prevent chip overheating, and reduce screen glare. and other issues, to ensure that the game runs smoothly at full frame rate throughout the game.
As games and apps take up more memory, phone memory often runs short. For this reason, POCO F5 Pro is equipped with up to 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 512 GB of RAM, even if multiple applications are running in the background at the same time, or a large number of games, applications, music and photos, its memory capacity is totally sufficient.
OIS triple camera, easy to capture
As an all-round flagship phone, the POCO F5 Pro is not inferior in terms of photography. It is equipped with a 64MP OIS triple camera. It is also equipped with a newly launched movie feature, keeping all the features of the previous generation, which is a smart filter generated by an algorithm to offer a retro or vintage look feel. It can make it easy to create good-looking and creative photos. Film Camera has the ability to take a normal photo and tell a story.
What's even more gratifying are the new features brought by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 chip. First of all, POCO F5 Pro has a motion capture function, which can automatically track the moment of the action being captured, such as photographing animated moments of pets and children playing. Many phones tend to blur photos, but the blur of POCO F5 Pro can be minimized to capture a clear image.
In addition, it can also take up to 50 photos in a few seconds, easily choose your favorite photo, and you don't have to worry about missing the wonderful moment. Of course, there is no problem if you want to record videos on the move. The new supported motion follow focus can automatically identify the object you want to focus on and automatically follow the focus without worrying about blurry focus in the video. Of course, it also supports it if you want to record a professional 8K video.
In general, whether it is the screen, chip, memory, battery or photography, the configuration and performance of POCO F5 Pro are top-notch, and all aspects of the configuration are balanced without shortcomings, which is very suitable for users who pursue a complete experience.
And more importantly, the price of POCO phones has always been full of sincerity. Based on a number of flagship configurations, I think POCO F5 Pro may also have a price surprise, and it can be called "the most worthy flagship of the year". If you're interested in POCO phones, or planning to buy one, then this all-round flagship of sorts is worth paying attention to.
