In 2022 we met Xiaomi’s POCO X4 range of smartphones, with great success among consumers. This year we are ready to meet the Xiaomi POCO X5 PRO 5G smartphones and the wait (fortunately) is about to end.
Everything points to the global launch of new products such as the phone in question, with the brand itself revealing the teaseror rather, the promises of a new quality/price smartphone that will hit stores during the first quarter of 2023.

In fact, several of the current models in the POCO X4 range are still great buys this new year. Proof of this is that we have already tested some equipment from this Xiaomi sub-brand, with very positive performance.
For all that has now been exposed, it is natural that expectations are high for his successors. According to the latest leaks, Xiaomi is ready to reveal the flagship POCO X5 PRO 5G in the coming weeks.
This is the likely POCO X5 Pro 5G smartphone
Interestingly, in a world full of information leaks, these cost-effective phones from Xiaomi have remained surprisingly low-key. However, we do have some compelling details with some of the “specs” of the product.
First of all, the POCO X5 PRO 5G will have a high-resolution AMOLED screen, Full-HD+ standard, as well as a high image refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. The exact dimensions of the panel are, for the moment, one of the several unknowns.
The photographic department will also include improvements. Specifically, we will now have a 108 MP main sensor with wide-angle optics.
However, this one will not be alone, since in the images that have reached the Internet we also observe the presence of ultra-wide angle optics. At the moment, however, we do not know the exact resolution of its sensor. Finally, we also have a third camera with optics macro.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 778G will be the “heart” of this Xiaomi smartphone
The best of all?
Get ready for Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 778G processor, mid-range/high-end SoC for POCO X5 Pro. This “heart” will deliver great performance if Xiaomi does not fail in the already traditional optimization of its software with MIUI 14, based on Android 13 from Google.
We will also have a large capacity battery with 5,000 mAh and fast charging of up to 67 W of power. In addition, we have dual speakers for a better multimedia experience and stereo audio.
The connectivity options of this Xiaomi POCO X5 Pro also include NFC and access to fifth generation mobile networks. That is, it will be another affordable (and powerful) model with 5G.
There is also an indication of at least 8 GB of RAM, as well as up to 256 GB of internal storage. It is possible, or even very likely, that the brand will offer more variants with different memory configurations once the phone is released.
The quality/price ratio will dictate the success of the POCO X5 Pro 5G
In short, the POCO X5 Pro 5G will essentially be the Redmi Note 12 Pro Speed Edition with a different name and possibly some design changes to the Android smartphone.
