New Snapdragon processor and IceLoop cooling system
Inside the POCO F7 is Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor. The SoC is based on an all-big-core architecture and, according to the manufacturer, achieves over two million points in the AnTuTu benchmark. The hardware is complemented by 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and either 256 GB or 512 GB of UFS 4.1 storage.
To maintain consistently high performance, POCO relies on a newly developed cooling system. The so-called 3D Dual-Channel IceLoop system features a heat pipe area of 6.000 mm² and is designed to prevent thermal bottlenecks even during longer gaming sessions.
AMOLED display with high peak brightness
The 6,83-inch AMOLED panel has a resolution of 2.772 × 1.280 pixels and a refresh rate of 120 Hz. Maximum brightness reaches up to 3.200 nits peak, ensuring good readability even in direct sunlight. The panel supports PWM dimming at 3.840 Hz and carries TÜV certifications for flicker-free and blue light reduction.
6.500 mAh battery and reverse charging
The POCO F7 is equipped with a 6.500 mAh battery. Outside of Europe, POCO even offers a 7.550 mAh version. Charging power is up to 90 watts, which, according to the manufacturer, allows 80 percent of the battery capacity to be reached in 30 minutes. The device also supports wired reverse charging with up to 22,5 watts.
Camera with Sony sensor and optical stabilization
The POCO F7's main camera uses a 882-megapixel Sony IMX50 sensor with optical image stabilization (OIS). It's complemented by an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera. The front camera has a 20-megapixel resolution. On the software side, POCO offers features such as Live Photo, UltraSnap, and an AI-powered Beautify mode.
Design, workmanship and protection class
The POCO F7's body consists of an aluminum frame and a glass back. The Cyber Silver Edition takes things to the next level with a mechanically inspired design and a Snapdragon logo on the back. The device is IP68 dust and water resistant and, according to the manufacturer, can withstand pressures of up to 70 kilograms.
Software and update guarantee
The operating system is HyperOS 2 based on Android 15. POCO promises four years of system updates and six years of security updates. Current standards such as Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, and USB-C (2.0) are also on board.
