POCO never fails to pack outstanding experiences for their growing pool of young techies, but with amazing value in mind, and the POCO M5 and POCO M5s are no different.
POCO M5: Game on with a flagship-level 6nm processor and a dynamic display
Powered by the advanced MediaTek Helio G99 chipset, the POCO M5 offers an incredibly smooth gaming experience. Built on a flagship-level 6nm manufacturing process, the powerful chipset includes an octa-core CPU, with two high-performance Cortex-A76 clocking up to 2.2GHz, along with an Arm Mali G57 GPU for advanced 3D graphics — an unprecedented full system for snappier gaming performance in a value phone. The Game Turbo 5.0 intelligently controls and optimizes the CPU, GPU, and memory to support steady gameplay even in heavy-loading games. The system can judiciously recognize if you are in the middle of a game, and act so that a sudden message will not disconnect you by popping up a sub-window.
Coming with a 90Hz DynamicSwitch display, the POCO M5 can dynamically switch the display refresh rate. When playing games, it adapts to a very fast refresh rate for high-frame gaming titles, while it can switch to slow down for video playback. This saves power as well as ensures sustained and longer gameplay with maximized battery life.
With a 6.58-inch Full HD+ DotDrop display, the POCO M5 delivers vibrant color accuracy and crisp graphics. Along with its 240Hz touch sampling rate, the POCO M5 speeds up the overall experience and helps significantly in fast-paced games with quicker touch response. The POCO M5 also comes with practical features like Sunlight display, which allows you to carry on outdoors, and enjoy your game comfortably in the park or by the pool.
Beyond gameplay, POCO M5 is also perfect for those who want to live life to the fullest and capture its most memorable moments. It is fitted with a triple-back camera array comprised of a 50MP main camera, a 2MP depth sensor for real-time depth detection, and a 2MP macro camera for incredible close-ups. Whether you want to capture the excitement of sea surfing or take the perfect close-up of street artwork, the POCO M5 will not let you down.
To top it all up, the POCO M5’s high-capacity 5,000mAh battery with 18W fast charging won’t leave you hanging. There’s no need for low-battery anxiety throughout the day, as you play your favorite game on the go while handling all your everyday tasks too.
POCO M5s: The powerful entertainment hub to embrace magic fun
When it comes to capturing photo and video content, the POCO M5s’ quad rear camera system can record stunning 4K videos at 30 frames per second, for catching unexpected street sports moments. It includes a 64MP primary camera, and an 8MP ultra-wide angle camera to capture beautiful city skyline shots, or mountain scenery if you enjoy nature. It also has two 2MP sensors for depth detection or taking detailed close-ups of watercolor to embrace your inner artist. A 13MP front camera tops it all up for great selfies and sharp video chat quality with friends and family.
What’s more, you have your creative studio, with a host of intelligent and user-friendly photography and film-making features to express yourself. For example, you can take great photos at night, capture stunning portraits with a bokeh effect, and produce professional time-lapse or slow-motion videos with the help of AI.
POCO M5s come with an impressive 6.43-inch Full HD+ AMOLED DotDisplay to watch sports, show videos to your friends or play music. Paired with dual speakers, it was engineered to provide a fully immersive audio-visual experience, amping up the fun of playing your favorite artist’s new music video release or getting lost in a cyberpunk sci-fi movie. In the meantime, let yourself be amazed by the POCO M5s’ smooth visuals and excellent color performance. It even packs premium features to enhance user comfort, like DC Dimming and 360° ambient light sensors to adjust the screen brightness so you can enjoy an entire live stream without eyestrain.
Equipped with a MediaTek Helio G95 chipset, the POCO M5s has all the power you need to bring you the magic fun in the audio-visual world. The pairing of smooth graphics performance and efficiency enables immersive augmented reality, brilliant camera shooting, and seamless streaming experiences. It also sports a high-capacity 5,000mAh battery, providing up to 12 hours of uninterrupted immersive fun, or one and a half days of non-stop voice calls. It could even last a month in standby mode if you wanted to!
