The Poco F7 5G has been officially released in India, with a massive 7,550mAh battery under the hood, the largest on any commercially available smartphone. Interestingly, the global edition of the phone has a 6,500mAh battery. Now, this phone is more than just about the battery; the successor to the F6, a fine phone in its own right, even by today's standards, is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, a chipset typically found on higher-priced telephones such as the iQOO Neo 10 and the Realme GT 7.

Here's all you need to know about the Poco F7 5G, including pricing, specifications, and launch deals.

Poco F7 5G: India Price, Availability, and Launch Offers

The Poco F7 5G comes in two variants: 12GB RAM + 256GB storage and 12GB RAM + 512GB storage, priced at Rs 31,999 and Rs 33,999, respectively. The phone will be available only on Flipkart beginning July 1. And if you want to buy one on launch day, Poco is offering some great bargains.

Buyers who use HDFC, ICICI, or SBI cards will receive an instant Rs 2,000 discount, as well as a Rs 2,000 exchange incentive, which can be combined or used individually. This effectively lowers the starting price to Rs 29,999 and Rs 31,999 for the 256GB and 512GB storage options, respectively.

To sweeten the sale, Poco is including a 1-year complimentary screen damage protection worth Rs 10,000 as well as a 1-year extended guarantee. This extends the overall warranty period to two years. But keep in mind that all of these launch bonuses are only available for purchases purchased on the first day of sale, July 1.

Poco F7 5G: Specifications and Key Features

The Poco F7 5G's most notable feature is its performance. It is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, which is also seen in much more expensive phones. Add to that up to 24GB of Turbo RAM (12GB real + 12GB virtual), up to 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage, and a whopping 2.1 million+ AnTuTu score, and you have a true flagship killer on your hands. Poco's unique 6K IceLoop VC cooling system ensures that the phone stays cool even under intense use.

The Poco F7 runs HyperOS 2.0 on Android 15 and is expected to receive four years of major OS updates and six years of security patches. Poco has also incorporated several AI-powered features out of the box, including Google Gemini and Circle to Search, as well as utilities like AI Notes, AI Interpreter, AI Image Enhancement, and AI Image Expansion.

Aside from sheer power, the Poco F7 features a massive 7,550mAh battery, all housed in a relatively small 7.99mm frame weighing 222 grams. Charging is also quick due to 90W rapid wired charging, and there's 22.5W reverse charging for powering up your headphones or another phone.

The show is similarly impressive. The 6.83-inch 1.5K (1,280x2,772 pixels) AMOLED panel has low bezels, a 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ support, 3,840Hz PWM dimming, and a peak brightness of up to 3,200 nits.

In terms of optics, the Poco F7 has a 50-megapixel Sony IMX882 primary sensor with OIS and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera on the back. The front features a 20-megapixel selfie camera.

The phone is also dust and water-resistant, with IP66, IP68, and IP69 certifications, as well as a superior aluminium frame and glass build with Gorilla Glass 7i on both the front and back. Other prominent features include twin stereo speakers, an in-display fingerprint sensor, and connectivity options for 5G, 4G, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, GPS, NFC, and USB Type-C.
