POCO has announced its latest flagship line, which consists of the POCO F9 Ultra, and the one we’ll be focusing on today, the POCO F9 Pro.
The POCO F9 Pro is powered by a true flagship processor, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, with 12GB of RAM, and an option between 256GB and 512GB of storage.
It then has a packed 6.59-inch AMOLED screen, with a high 185Hz refresh rate, 12-bit color, and support for HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. A big highlight here is the Bose-tuned stereo speakers, although it lacks the dedicated subwoofer the Ultra model have.
Keeping the lights on is a 6,330mAh battery, with 100W wired charging and support for 50W wireless. It also has fast 27W wired and 22.5W reverse wireless charging.
Like the F9 Ultra, the F9 Pro has a sharp 200-megapixel main camera, 50-megapixel telephoto, and 32-megapixel front-facing sensor. However, the ultra-wide was downgraded to 8 megapixels. That telephoto lens also lacks a periscope lens and can only do 2.5x telephoto.
It ships with Android 16-based HyperOS 3 software and has IP68/IP69-rated durability.
The POCO F9 Pro 12GB/256GB has an SRP of Php49,999, while the 12GB/512GB retails for Php54,999. It has an early bird price of Php33,999 and Php35,999, respectively, until September 16, and will come with a free Redmi Buds 8 Active, 1+1 years warranty, and up to 6 months of screen replacement in any Xiaomi Service Center.
You can also get both models with Shopee and Lazada rebates for as low as Php29,300.
