Poco has launched a new budget smartphone in India called Poco M7 Plus 5G. It is the latest M series phone and succeeds the M6 Plus, which debuted in August 2024.
The Poco M7 Plus houses a massive 7,000 mAh silicon-carbon battery with support for 33W charging and 18W reverse charging. In line with the recent trend of brands touting the “slimmest” phones in specific categories, Poco claims the M7 Plus is the thinnest handset with a 7,000 mAh battery, measuring just 8.4mm.
Poco’s new M series phone features a 6.9-inch Full HD+ LCD that refreshes at 144Hz. It has 550 nits of peak brightness, and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 3. The display features a punch-hole cutout for the 8 MP front camera.
The M7 Plus is powered by an octa-core Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 SoC, paired with up to 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB storage. Thankfully, the phone gets a microSD slot for storage expansion up to 2TB.
It has a dual rear camera setup with a 50 MP primary sensor and an unknown secondary unit. You do get a couple of AI features such as AI Dynamic Shot, AI Eraser, and AI Sky replacement. The phone runs Android 15-based Hyper OS and is promised to receive two years of OS updates with four years of security patches. Poco is also offering Google Gemini on the device.
The Poco M7 Plus 5G offers an IP64 rating, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, an IR blaster, and weighs 217g. It is available for purchase in India in Aqua Blue, Carbon Black, and Chrome Silver colors. Prices start at INR 13,999 ($160) for the 6 GB/128 GB model, while the 8 GB/128 GB variant costs INR 14,999 ($170). The phone will go on sale in India starting August 19.
