Powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G chipset (like the Redmi Note 9 Pro) and 4/6 GB RAM, the handset has up to 128GB internal space. With 2+1 microSD card slot, you can expand the internal storage space up to 512GB
Performance-wise, this Snapdragon 720G chipset is a decent performer (and better than G90T) for regular activities including video editing, light games etc.
Poco M2 Pro Specifications:
On the camera front, it has AI quad-camera setup on the back including 48mp wide lens from Samsung, 8mp ultra-wide lens, 5mp macro shooter and 2mp depth sensor. One can shoot 4K videos at 30fps. For selfie enthusiasts, you get 16mp in-display selfie camera.
Both specs and real photos are comparatively good enough at this price range.
Backed by a 5000mAh battery and 33W fast charging, the Poco M2 Pro stands for you for more than a day easily. Regarding OS, as it’s a Poco launcher phone, you don’t need to worry about the Ads that you usually encounter with MIUI in Redmi Note 9 Pro.
What’s Your Opinion?
There might be some issues with the phone regarding small lag in touch responsiveness (or call it a display bleeding issue). That’s the same issue being noted with Note 9 Pro as well.
Regarding banned security Apps like Clean Master, Poco has promised to send a new update or you can even uninstall them with a simple click.
Apart from branding difference and colour variation, you’ll not find major technical differences with Redmi Note 9 Pro or Max handsets.
Overall, this is a good package at ₹11,699 when you are purchasing the handset with SBI cards during Flipkart’s Big Billion Days Sale.
