Poco F7 is official: SD 8s Gen 4, large 6,500mAh battery, 90W charging
Centered around a futuristic design and flagship-grade performance, the Poco F7 is available in three colors: Black, White, and a special Snapdragon-themed Cyber Silver.
Alongside the F7, Poco also debuts its first-ever virtual avatar - Rydr. Rydr reflects Poco's pursuit of breakthrough performance and deeper engagement with the tech-savvy generation.
The phone uses a CNC-machined aluminum frame and a glass front and back. The Cyber Silver Edition is particularly interesting with its mechanical-style overlay.
The F7 is IP68 water and dust resistant, and Poco boasts that the F7 could withstand up to 70kg of pressure.
The phone features the brand new "all-big-core" Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset - a 30% faster chip that helps the Poco F7 snap over 2 million on AnTuTu.
Cooling the SoC is a 6000mm² 3D Dual-Channel IceLoop System - the biggest ever fitted in a Poco device. For gaming, there's the WildBoost 4.0 engine, ensuring 120fps in games such as Genshin Impact.
While at it, let's keep going with the numbers - the Poco F7 packs by far the largest battery in the series at 6,500mAh. The pack has 90W HyperCharge (80% in 30 minutes) and even offers reverse 22.5W charging for your USB-C devices.
Upfront, the Poco F7 has a 6.83-inch 1280x2772px 120Hz AMOLED with 3,200 nits of peak brightness and thin bezels, achieving a 94.23% screen-to-body ratio.
There are two cameras on the back of the Poco F7 - a 50MP 1/1.95-inch Sony IMX882 26mm wide-angle camera with OIS, and an 8MP f/2.2 15mm ultrawide.
The Poco F7 is available in Black, White, and Cyber Silver Edition, and either with 12/256GB or 12/512GB. Regular prices range from $399/£389 for the 12/256GB model with a special Early Bird price of $339/£319. The 12/512GB is $449/£429 with an Early Bird price of $399/£359.

Deals: the Poco F7, F7 Pro and F7 Ultra are on sale
Xiaomi's site in the Netherlands still offers Early Bird discounts on the Poco F7. After adding it to the cart, the price falls to €384 thanks to a €15 discount. You can find it here – it comes with a free 120W charger, free Xiaomi Smart Band 10 and a choice between a free Xiaomi Sound Outdoor 30W Bluetooth speaker or Redmi Buds 5 Pro. Amazon sells it at a slightly lower price, although without the freebies. The Poco F7 is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 – the same chipset used in the Nothing Phone (3), which will become available soon. The F7 has a bigger 6.83' OLED display and a higher capacity 6,500mAh battery. Its cameras are fairly basic, however, with a 50MP main (1/1.95') and 8MP ultra-wide. Of course, the Nothing starts at €800 – double the price of the F7. We will talk about Nothing more in the coming weeks, but the Poco F7 Ultra is a more direct competitor – and can be had for as little as €640. It is powered by the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and a 5,300mAh battery with 120W wired and 50W wireless charging. The camera setup includes a 50MP main (1/1.55'), 50MP 2.5x/60mm telephoto (1/2.76') and a 32MP ultra-wide. The middle ground is the Poco F7 Pro. That one also has a faster chipset – the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 beats the 8s Gen 4 by a small margin – and a sharper 1440p+ display (the Nothing Phone (3) has a 1260p+ panel). The 6,000mAh battery is bigger, but it only offers 90W wired charging. And the camera is similar to that of the vanilla F7, save for the bigger sensor in the main (50MP 1/1.55'). The Poco X7 Pro is part of the more affordable series, but its Dimensity 8400 Ultra performs close to the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4. Again, you're looking at pretty basic cameras (50MP 1/1.95' main, 8MP ultra-wide) and a large battery (6,000mAh, 90W wired-only charging). We may get a commission from qualifying sales.
