Xiaomi introduced the Poco X5 to launch locally and globally.We shall talk about a few confirmed details concerning Xiaomi’s Poco X5’s features and characteristics. I’ll start by pointing out that the larger 6.67-inch AMOLED capacitive touchscreen display, which is more noticeable, is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass and enables a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. The Xiaomi X5 is said to be powered by an Octa-Core CPU and a Snapdragon 695 5G (6 nm) chipset.

This device has 128 GB of internal storage and 6 GB of RAM. Additionally, it features a specific memory card slot for adding more memory. The triple camera arrangement on the Xofoco X5 is another standout feature. It includes 48 MP + 8 MP + 2 MP sensors, as well as an LED torch. On the front, it boasts a lone 13-megapixel selfie camera. A noteworthy improvement to the new Xiaomi Poco X5 is its enormous 5000 mAh battery, which can run the entire day on a single charge.

Additionally, it offers 33W of lightning-fast charging, allowing for quick refuelling. The Xiaomi Poco X5 can be fully charged using this fast charger in just 33 minutes, the manufacturer claims. It provides many advanced features to outperform its competitors in the market. Thus, Xiaomi Poco X5 was officially launched in local and international markets with a bang in February 2023. After Xiaomi released this new Pocoomi, Samsung and other brands faced competition.
