POCO F7 Ultra India Launch: Flagship Power Meets Premium Specs!
POCO India’s Managing Director, Himanshu Tandon, has teased the launch of the POCO F7 Ultra India with a cryptic social media post. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), Tandon posed alongside a poster of the device while holding the phone, signaling its imminent arrival.
This follows his earlier poll asking followers whether they preferred the POCO F7 Pro or F7 Ultra for India. While the Pro variant’s fate remains unclear, the Ultra model’s launch now seems all but confirmed.
POCO F7 Ultra: Global Specs & India Expectations
The POCO F7 Ultra debuted globally as a premium flagship, and its India launch could disrupt the ₹50,000–60,000 smartphone segment. Here’s what to expect:
- Display: 6.67-inch 2K AMOLED with 120Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision, and POCO Shield Glass.
- Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset (4nm), paired with UFS 4.1 storage and LPDDR5X RAM.
- Cameras: 50MP OIS primary + 50MP telephoto (2.5x zoom) + 32MP ultra-wide lens; 32MP front shooter.
- Battery: 5,300mAh battery with 120W wired and 50W wireless charging.
- Extras: IP68 rating, Wi-Fi 7, HyperOS 2 (Android 15), and ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.
POCO F7 Ultra vs F7 Pro: Key Differences
While the Ultra model dazzles with flagship specs, the POCO F7 Pro (global variant) offers a brighter 3,200-nit display and larger 6,000mAh battery but downgrades to a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, slower 90W charging, and a dual-camera setup (50MP + 8MP).
Priced at $499 (~₹42,900), the Pro may not launch in India, as POCO focuses on the Ultra’s premium appeal.
POCO F7: The Budget Contender
The vanilla POCO F7, likely a rebranded Redmi Turbo 4 Pro, has appeared on India’s BIS certification site, hinting at its launch. In China, it starts at ~₹23,488 and features a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip, 1.5K display, and 5,000mAh battery. Its pricing in India could undercut rivals like Nothing Phone (2a).
Price & Availability
The POCO F7 Ultra’s global price of $649 (~₹55,700) positions it against the iQOO 12 and OnePlus 12R. Meanwhile, the F7 could target the ₹25,000–30,000 range. POCO is expected to confirm launch dates soon, with sales likely on Flipkart.
