The popular brand POCO has released a new series of smartphones, the POCO F6, which includes two models – the base F6 (by the way, we already have a review of it on our website) and the F6 Pro (its review will be out soon, so stay tuned). The F6 Pro version boasts a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and a 6.67-inch display with ultra-thin bezels, while the base model runs on the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 with Wildboost 3.0 optimization.
Along with this, the company introduced its first tablet, the POCO Pad. The manufacturer equipped it with a 12.1-inch display with a 2.5K resolution, making it convenient for work, watching content, and communication.

The new POCO F6 Pro is a smartphone with a flagship Flow AMOLED display featuring a WQHD+ 2K resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, peak brightness of 4000 nits, 3840Hz PWM dimming, and TÜV Rheinland certification for eye safety and comfort. It is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and runs on HyperOS, with up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage.
The F6 Pro also boasts the best camera system in the POCO lineup and supports Dual Native ISO Fusion technology, allowing users to capture scenes with significant light and dark contrast.
The device also supports Burst Mode 2.0 for serial shooting and features the proprietary Imaging Engine algorithm to optimize loading speed and computations. The Ultra Night Algorithm enables high-quality photos in low-light conditions.
The smartphone is available in black or white and is powered by a 5000mAh battery that supports 120W HyperCharge, allowing the F6 Pro to be charged to 100% in just 19 minutes.
POCO F6
The POCO F6 scored over 1.53 million in AnTuTu, surpassing most smartphones in its segment. The smartphone supports the proprietary Wildboost 3.0 technology, which takes software optimization to a new level, and the capabilities of artificial intelligence in the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 ensure increased energy efficiency and lower temperatures. For a better gaming experience, the manufacturer equipped the F6 with a new cooling system called IceLoop.
The POCO F6 features the first CrystalRes display in the F series. It has a 6.67″ diagonal, a 120Hz refresh rate, peak brightness of 2400 nits, and supports 68 billion colors. The screen-to-body ratio is 94.27%, and TÜV Rheinland certification promises eye safety.
Additionally, the F6 is equipped with a 50MP main sensor with OIS and EIS support, and a wide-angle IMX882 module with an F/1.59 aperture. The smartphone can capture 4K video at 60 frames per second, and the Focus 2.0 feature enables tracking of people, animals, and even insects.
The model is available in black, green, or the new titanium color. The POCO F6 is equipped with a 5000mAh battery supported by 90W fast charging, which will recharge to 100% in approximately 30 minutes.
The first POCO Pad tablet
The brand’s first tablet in its portfolio features a 12.1-inch screen with a 2.5K resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 16:10 aspect ratio. It is TÜV Rheinland certified for comfortable usage over long periods and in low-light conditions. Additionally, it has four speakers with Dolby Atmos support.
The POCO Pad is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 processor and HyperOS for high performance and smooth operation. Its key feature is compatibility, which includes Home Screen+ and Xiaomi Smart Hub. With a single POCO/Xiaomi account and enabled Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, the Home Screen+ function allows content sharing between the mobile phone and tablet when they are nearby. The cross-device collaboration feature makes it easy to copy and paste data between devices. With Xiaomi Smart Hub, you can control up to seven devices simultaneously.
