Poco X4 Pro 5G | Unboxing & Full Tour | Another Redmi Note 11 Pro?
Ғылым және технология
Unboxing the Poco X4 Pro 5G, which packs similar specs, camera tech and performance to Xiaomi's Redmi Note 11 Pro. This hands-on review runs through the features of the Poco X4 Pro, with a Genshin Impact gaming test, photo and video samples and more.
So first up, yes, the specification of this budget smartphone is very similar (near identical in fact) to the premium Redmi Note 11 handset from earlier in 2022. This blower is aimed at more demanding users on a strict limit, with the Snapdragon 695 once again proving a worthy SoC for gamers. Certianly PubG, CoD Mobile and other Android titles play perfectly.
You have a 108MP camera slapped on the back of the Poco X4 Pro 5G, which can capture crisp photos but only FHD video. Battery life is strong, courtesy of the 5000mAh cell with Turbo Charge support. You also get Xiaomi's MiUI 13 launcher, albeit on top of older Android 11 OS.
So are you tempted? Check out my reviews of Poco X4 Pro's biggest rivals, and my round-ups of the best budget phones of 2022 under £300.

You are covering just about every product of interest that is launching at the MWC. Can't imagine how many videos you had to shoot back to back with all the different products and they are all so good with your upbeat and fun take on them all the way. TechSpurt seems to be the busiest channel of them all. Hats off.

Nice english bruh
Usually i get bored of watching 13min long videos but your commentary never bores! 💗
you crack me up bruv! always make the stress of finding a new phone a bit more light hearted for me. Think im going with the redmi note 11 pro 5g
I see some folks are a little disappointed. In my case, I'm upgrading from the POCO F1 so I'm thinking, for me, the X4 Pro will be a nice upgrade and I'm looking forward to checking it out. Update; Compared with the POCO F1 is an interesting experience. I'd say there isn't a wow I've upgraded moment, rather a gradual noticing of pros and cons. The X4 has a nicer screen and much better speakers, so if that's important to you, upgrade. However the F1 is still a smoother and slightly faster device and just feels the more expensive device of the two. The X4 is still growing on me though...

Can you tell me if this phone supports VoLTE over here in the UK please? Need to ditch my current Realme X2 for something relatively cheap but a bit more up to date, and I need VoLTE (something which isn't available on the X2 for some reason).
Amazing unboxing as always Chris Sir
Hey Tech Spurt does it have an incredible Bluetooth connection whenever I connect the smartphone with my headphone and will the Bluetooth connection keep on going or will the music keep on pausing if I do push-ups or burpees whenever I am moving about with my body?

Nice specs upgrade from Poco X3 Pro. But they should have put the same processor on the Poco X3 Pro the Snapdragon 860. Anyways good review as always. Thanks! Btw I like your wallpaper Karyl-Chan hehe

How's the proximity sensor on these new devices? Any difference from the disaster of proximity sensors in Xiaomi phones from the last 2 years?
It's on a special deal of £159 from Poco UK app it's a bargain compared to any other phone of that price. Just ordered after looking at this review!

Hi Guys, Thinking of getting myself a new handset, I currently have a Oppo Find X2 Neo. I am liking this Poco, and are wondering if this would be an upgrade as such over my Oppo, as the battery is starting to suffer.
Like my Poco X3 NFC. Only problem I have is the signal is a bit weak indoors. Wonder if the x4 is better?
Can you use a lower watt charger with it too?
Do you as creator buy this phone with your own money and release video after the embargo day or this is sponsored free phone and you are told when to upload? Just few min ago other creators uploaded videos of this phone.
Where do you get your wallpaper? Please give the link.
I like this decent smartphone it has an astounding gaming performance with smooth gaming performance whenever you play games on the go on this smartphone. Therefore, I love this smartphone camera mode with its juicy elevating 64MP senor whenever you capture photos in the daytime and nighttime inside or outside it takes incredible photos in its best abilities on this smartphone.

Wait, it doesn't let you film in 4k? I have the Poco X3 - and it lets you record 4K 30 fps..... why does the older model have more options for video recording? odd.
Snapdragon 695 ☹ That's a significant step down from the Snapdragon 860 in the Poco X3 Pro.

... why do 'newer' phones come out with soc's less powerful than previous phones? E.g., this phone has a qualcomm 695 but the x3 gt had a mediatek 1100. The new motorola stylus has a helio g- something that is not 5g. One of last year's had the qual 480, which is 5g.
I really don't get the point of 108mp cameras unless they're doing pixel binning or using it to enhance the zoom. I would far rather have a more modest main camera that allows more light into the lens with OIS than have 3 separate cameras that are meh for everything
