Poco F7 5G: In today’s era when mobile gaming has become a serious hobby, everyone is looking for a smartphone that takes their gaming experience to the next level. Whether they are BGMI players, Call of Duty fans or those who spend hours immersed in graphic-heavy games like Genshin Impact – everyone wants a phone that not only runs the game, but also runs it smooth, sharp and without any lag. And keeping this need in mind, Poco F7 5G has come out, which is creating a stir in the name of gaming in the mid-range segment.

The real king of powerful performance

The biggest strength of Poco F7 5G is its processor – Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 4. This processor works like a rocket for gaming. Built on TSMC’s 4nm process technology, this chipset comes with “All Big Core” architecture, which offers a peak clock speed of up to 3.21GHz. Some reviews have shown that the Poco F7 5G scores over 2 million on AnTuTu V10 – and that too ahead of phones like the Galaxy S25 and iPhone 16! Now think, where will you get the direct benefit of so much power? Of course – in gaming.

This chipset comes with Adreno 825 GPU, which supports advanced graphics features like Ray Tracing. Qualcomm’s Adaptive Performance Engine is also in it which makes gaming even smoother and responsive. Poco has also given WildBoost Optimization 4.0 from its side, which further polishes the gaming experience for high FPS and great image rendering.

Be it BGMI or Genshin Impact 

Now that we are talking about gaming, how can we forget BGMI – this is the benchmark for mobile gaming in India. Poco F7 5G currently supports up to 90FPS in BGMI and that too in a very smooth manner. Stability of up to 99.4% and an average output of 87.1FPS is available in 30 minutes of gaming. What’s more, Poco has officially confirmed that in the upcoming OTA update, this phone will also support 120FPS in BGMI – now this is a sure game changer, especially for those who play competitively.

Apart from BGMI, Call of Duty: Mobile also runs very smoothly on medium to high settings. And for those who are crazy about games with heavy graphics like Genshin Impact, the Poco F7 5G also has the feature of Super Resolution Rendering, which gives the game a visual output close to 2K quality. However, some high-end games, such as Wuthering Waves, can make this phone a little hot if played for a long time – but this is normal because the more powerful the processor, the more it works and generates heat.

Thermal management is also equally smart

With such a powerful processor, it is natural for the phone to heat up. But Poco has taken full care of this too. The Poco F7 5G has a 6000mm² 3D dual-channel IceLoop cooling system – Poco’s largest cooling system till date. This system covers every important part of the phone well and helps in dissipating heat quickly.

The Poco F7 has also given a very good performance in the CPU Throttling test – 90% stability in 15 minutes on medium load and 82% stability in 30 minutes on heavy load. Some reviews did reveal that the phone can get a little hot during very heavy gaming, especially when there are back-to-back gaming sessions. The temperature can sometimes reach 52 degrees Celsius, but this only happens during very intense gaming and does not have any major impact on the phone’s performance.

Special features made for gaming

The Poco F7 5G not only has a powerful processor, but full attention has also been paid to other things. It has a 6.83-inch 1.5K AMOLED display that comes with a 120Hz refresh rate and 3200 nits brightness, which provides great viewing even outdoors. There is also Dolby Vision support.

The battery is 7550mAh which lasts comfortably for 2-3 days, and also gets charged quickly with 90W fast charging. Dual stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos audio make gaming even more immersive, although there is no 3.5mm jack.

“Instant Game Control” and smart gestures have been provided for touch control, which gives better response in gaming. There is a Surge T1S Tuner chip for the network, which optimizes the signal and keeps the connectivity smooth in all conditions.
