9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
If you haven't bought[br]a smartphone

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
last Christmas 2024 yet,[br]congratulations

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
because as early as now,[br]January of 2025,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
we now have a flagship killer,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
this new POCO X7 Pro.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This phone [br]has flagship killer specs

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
without the flagship price tag.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Dimensity 8400 Ultra.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It can almost compete[br]with the SD 8 Gen 3.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
6,000mAh of battery,[br]it's so big,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with 90W charging capability.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
CrystalRes AMOLED display[br]with 1.5K display.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Best of all, Sony IMX882[br]50MP main camera sensor.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Are you intrigued enough?

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Finish this video.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
(introduction music)

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This POCO X7 Pro Iron Man Edition[br]with a 12GB of RAM

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and 512GB of storage[br]would be priced

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
at Php22,999.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But for early birds,[br]this phone is only Php19,999.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The regular edition[br]of the POCO X7 Pro

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
has three variants.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It has 8GB of RAM[br]and 256GB of storage

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
priced at Php16,999.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But for early birds,[br]it's only Php15,999.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It has 12GB of RAM[br]and 256GB storage

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
priced at Php17,999.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
For early birds,[br]it's only Php16,999.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And of course,[br]it has 12GB/512GB

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with a regular price [br]of Php19,999.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But for early birds,[br]it's only Php18,499.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'll be posting [br]all of the official links

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on the description box below.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So check out the official links.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
One of the things[br]that I really like about this phone

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is its collaboration[br]with Marvel.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We can see that the build[br]on this Iron Man phone

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is really good.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The Iron Man logo on the back[br]is really looking nice,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
plus it has an Avengers logo[br]on the bottom

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which is definitely cool[br]for Marvel fans.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And they even have[br]a custom box.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Its back is really beautiful[br]and I was hoping

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that its side are also custom,[br]even just a metallic red

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to make it look [br]a lot more Iron Man-ish design.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But what they did here[br]is just a very plain

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
matte black plastic frame[br]on the sides

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which is, I would say,[br]just lacking a bit of effort.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But I'm happy with the red ring[br]on the two camera modules

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which are looking really nice.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It's really fitting [br]on this phone.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And its red button[br]looks also really good.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Another plus point[br]is the theme here

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which is what I didn't see[br]on the POCO F6 Deadpool Edition.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'll show you the theme[br]in full detail.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
One thing that I really like[br]on this phone

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is that its theme pack[br]is really great.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Now, we know that[br]its back is Iron Man theme.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And I've voiced out[br]during our review

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
of the POCO F6 Deadpool Edition[br]that the back looks great,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
except that its theme[br]is just a regular theme.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But on this one,[br]POCO really did the extra work,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
giving the theme that we want.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This is a special custom-made[br]Iron Man theme.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We can see the icons here[br]are specially made

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
for this phone.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Therefore, I would say[br]that this is definitely

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a special edition.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Not just only its back case[br]but the experience

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
while using this phone[br]is definitely better.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Overall, its design is good,[br]my grip on this is great,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and I would say its bezels[br]are just right.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Not the thinnest [br]that I've seen

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but its symmetrical bezels[br]are quite decent.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This phone is the first one[br]to sport the MediaTek

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Dimensity 8400 Ultra.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And like I've said in the intro,[br]this one can go

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
almost toe to toe[br]with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
because POCO said that[br]it can give an AnTuTu score

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
of up to 1.8 million points.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Honestly, I would hardly get[br]that score.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
After five tries,[br]I only got 1.5 million points.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But I've asked [br]other tech reviewers

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and they were able to get[br]1.6 and 1.7 million score

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
here on AnTuTu Benchmark.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm not quite sure [br]why it didn't work with mine.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This is the breakdown score[br]that we got.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This is the score that I got[br]on CPU benchmarking

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on Geekbench.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And this is the GPU benchmarking.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Its thermals are looking okay.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
After five minutes,[br]it kind of went down a bit

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and it throttled to 79%[br]of its best performance.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
POCO said that they've put[br]liquid cooling technology 4.0

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
in this phone.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We'll find out later[br]on gaming if it really cools better

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
compared to X6 Pro.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
When it comes to battery,[br]it's huge at 6,000mAh

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which, for me, is a good upgrade[br]over the X6 Pro.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Another good thing here[br]is it supports 90W

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
of fast charging of Xiaomi.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Only thing is that[br]this box doesn't come

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with any charging brick.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
If you're an early bird buyer,[br]it would come together

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with a free Xiaomi [br]charging brick.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But I've heard that [br]the regular X7 has

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a charging brick included.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Charging from 0 to 100%[br]on this phone using

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
the Xiaomi 90W[br]fast charging brick,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it finishes at around 30 minutes.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And another thing [br]that's delightful here

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is that it can last [br]one whole day

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
without even hitting[br]the charging brick,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that is provided that[br]you're not heavy into gaming

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and video conferencing [br]or video taking.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This can really last[br]one whole day.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It can maybe even last[br]one and a half day.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
When I put this[br]under the battery stress test

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on PCMark, it was able[br]to get 19 hours

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and 7 minutes of screen-on time.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I tested this [br]under 50% brightness

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and 60Hz of screen refresh rate.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Let's talk about its display.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This phone has a 6.67-inch[br]CrystalRes AMOLED display

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
with 1.5K resolution.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It has a refresh rate[br]of up to 120Hz.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And its touch sampling rate[br]is 2,560Hz.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Maximum brightness is 3,000 nits.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And it also has 1,920Hz[br]PWM dimming

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which is definitely more friendlier[br]to the eyes.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And its protection[br]is Corning Gorilla Glass 7i.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
When I was scrolling[br]on social media,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
like Facebook, TikTok,[br]Instagram,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and on other social media apps,[br]you'll really feel

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
this phone to be very smooth[br]because of its high refresh rate.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
You won't feel [br]your screen stuttering.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
As long as your [br]internet connection is good,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
expect it to give you[br]a great scrolling experience

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on this phone.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And another thing,[br]it has a Level 1

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Widevine Security Level [br]so you can definitely watch

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
HD content on this phone.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And when I was watching[br]HD content on YouTube,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I was able to enjoy [br]different videos

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that I've watched here[br]while I was on my vacation.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And especially watching anime[br]and Korean novellas,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
this phone is a winner.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
This phone has stereo speakers,[br]two holes on top

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and five holes on the bottom.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Let's try it out[br]to see if its speakers hold up.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
(APT by ROSÉ & Bruno Mars)

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Its sound is surprisingly good,[br]and when I maxed out

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
its volume, [br]it doesn't sound tinny.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So its speakers are good.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Let's talk about gaming.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Earlier, I said that it has[br]a liquid cooling technology 4.0

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
which is an improved version[br]of the liquid cooling technology

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
of POCO here.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And it has a POCO 3D[br]IceLoop system.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And further giving you[br]some ideas on its specs,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it sports a LPDDR5x RAM[br]and UFS 4.0 storage.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Plus, it has a WildBoost[br]Optimization 3.0

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on its Game Turbo mode.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
So I played four games here:[br]Honor of Kings,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Genshin Impact, Farlight 84,[br]and Call of Duty Mobile.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
If you're playing the game[br]Honor of Kings

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
on POCO X7 Pro,[br]expect that it would give you

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a really good experience.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Setting it to all high settings[br]that it can handle,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it'll really give you[br]a really, really nice experience.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
The gameplay was really smooth.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I almost didn't feel[br]any frame drops along the way.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
One thing I like about it[br]is that its sound is good

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and the screen's responsiveness[br]is very fast while I'm playing.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And another thing that I like[br]is that its display is great,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
giving you a better experience[br]while gaming.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And after 30 minutes[br]of gameplay on Honor of Kings,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
its maximum temperature[br]was 39°C.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
When it comes to Genshin Impact,[br]I maxed out

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
its graphic settings at high[br]and 60 FPS.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And its performance[br]is also very smooth.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I would say that [br]its gameplay on Genshin Impact

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is almost comparable[br]to a flagship.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I almost didn't feel[br]any frame drops

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
while playing against big bosses[br]here on Genshin Impact.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And another thing [br]that I also liked about it

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is that the response[br]of every single touch is so fast.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And this phone is probably one[br]of the better ones

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that I've played[br]for Genshin Impact.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And honestly, [br]I would highly recommend

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
this phone if you're a player[br]of Genshin Impact.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
After 30 minutes of gameplay,[br]the hottest it achieved was 43°C.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
On Farlight 84,[br]we also maxed out

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
its graphic settings,[br]and honestly, to my surprise,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
its gameplay was good.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Though there are [br]some minor frame drops

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but you won't almost notice it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
But those frame drops[br]don't happen that often,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it's very minimal [br]and only a handful.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
One thing I liked about it[br]while playing Farlight 84

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
is that its screen is clear[br]while playing this game.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And after playing [br]two ranked matches

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
for 30 minutes,[br]the hottest it achieved

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
was also 43°C.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
On Call of Duty Mobile,[br]we maxed out its graphics

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and its gameplay[br]was really great,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I was so happy with it.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
We put it to max frame rate[br]and it was able to give us

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
a really good experience.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
One thing I liked about it[br]is its loudspeaker

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
that sounds great.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
While you're playing this game,[br]you'll hear the footsteps

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
coming from the left and right[br]and you'll really be able

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
to distinguish it [br]from the speakers.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm not saying it's one[br]of the best speakers out there

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
but I would say [br]you'll really hear the footsteps

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
from the left and right,[br]you'll be able to distinguish them

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
from this phone.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And playing for 30 minutes,[br]it also reached 43°C.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Probably one of the highlights[br]on this phone is its camera.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
It has improved significantly[br]from the POCO X6 Pro.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Its main camera sensor[br]is a Sony IMX882 50MP with OIS

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and it also has included[br]an 8MP ultra wide lens.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Its front-facing camera[br]is a 20MP front-facing shooter.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Its back can shoot you[br]up to 4K and 60 FPS.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And its front can shoot you[br]up to 1080p and 30 FPS.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I've been navigating[br]with this phone.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
I'm playing with its camera.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And to my surprise,[br]I got many great shots

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
from this POCO X7 Pro.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And we can see that some[br]of these outdoor shots,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
it's just a very simple shot[br]but it looks really nice.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
Taking some building shots[br]on Quezon City

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
and you'd see that[br]even though it's kind of gloomy,

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
these shots are captured nicely.

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
And trying to take[br]some flower shot

9:59:59.000,9:59:59.000
even though the lighting[br]is not that great
