POCO M7 Pro 5G

POCO M7 Pro 5G uses the MediaTek Dimensity 7025 Ultra processor. It has 6 GB or 8 GB of RAM and in-built storage of 128 GB or 256 GB that is expandable to 1 TB. POCO M7 Pro 5G is based on Android v14 and is designed to provide smooth performance for daily usage and gaming. It comes with a 6.67-inch FHD+ AMOLED screen with a 120 Hz refresh rate, Gorilla Glass 5 protection, and punch-hole cutout. For cameras, it has a dual camera setup at the back: a 50 MP primary camera with digital zoom up to 20x and a 2 MP macro sensor, with full HD video recording of 30fps. The front has a 20 MP camera, capable of taking full HD videos as well. It is accompanied by a battery of 5110 mAh, which can be fast charged up to 45W using a USB Type-C port. The smartphone provides dust resistance and water resistance and has a hybrid dual SIM slot with 5G support. The price begins from Rs.13,484 for the basic version.

Vivo T3x 5G

Vivo T3x 5G is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chipset and comes with 4 GB, 6 GB, or 8 GB of RAM. It has 128 GB storage that can be extended up to 1 TB. Similar to the POCO M7 Pro, the device is powered by Android v14. It has a 6.72 inches FHD+ display with 120 Hz refresh rate but an LCD display instead of AMOLED. Its rear camera system also features a 50 MP primary lens, supported by a 2 MP depth sensor for full HD video recording. But the selfie camera is just 8 MP. Vivo T3x comes with a larger 6000 mAh battery with 44W fast charging, thus more attractive to power users. It is also water and dust resistant and has a hybrid dual SIM slot. The base price is Rs.12,499 for 4 GB RAM.

Display Comparison

Both phones support a 120 Hz refresh rate and an FHD+ resolution, but POCO M7 Pro employs an AMOLED display, which offers superior contrast and colors than Vivo T3x’s LCD panel. If you are watching a lot of media or enjoy flashy visuals, POCO is the winner here.

Performance and Storage

POCO M7 Pro’s MediaTek Dimensity 7025 Ultra is a good performer, but Vivo T3x’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 is a balanced performer, particularly in efficiency. Vivo also offers a wider RAM range beginning at 4 GB, making it more price flexible.

Battery and Charging

Vivo T3x leads with a 6000 mAh battery, compared to POCO’s 5110 mAh. While POCO offers slightly faster 45W charging, Vivo’s 44W is nearly identical and compensates with a higher capacity.
