Its first ‘Ultra’ phone has a triple rear camera, fast charging, and IP68 protection.

Lately, I’ve been living with Poco’s latest phone, the F7 Ultra. Poco is a brand that’s known for delivering affordable mid-range phones with flagship-level features, but this model is a little different.

Indeed, the phone I was most reminded of when handling the Poco X7 Ultra for the first time was the Xiaomi 15. It's got a similar flat black rim, albeit slightly less rounded at the edges. It's obviously much bigger, with a 160.26 x 74.95 x 8.39mm footprint and slightly-too-heavy weight of 212g.
