Our Poco X7 Pro battery life test is now ready

14 January 2025
It's an improvement over the last generation, but perhaps not as good as the battery capacity would make you believe.

It's the fake it until you make it game they're playing. I honestly think they're not spending much on their software department. Even their RAM cleaner just increases memory usage after pressing it. it's no wonder their battery life is trash. One would think with having the most aggressive multitasking killing that their battery life would be the best in class, but it's the opposite.

      guys. xiaomi stopped second space feature??? i checked in outlets, all phones don't have the feature. Poco x7 pro also don't have? any users pls reply, planning to buy this phone. currently holding X3 pro,

          Anonymous, 16 Jan 2025I have used xiaomi/poco phone for nearly a decade and i am ... moreThe HyperOS that Xiaomi flagship devices have is superb, I run a Chinese ROM on my device and I wish my poco phone could also have the same software, but instead I have to resort to custom ROMs.

            Hello,

            I come from a X6 Pro, then a F6 and now have a X7 Pro. I've absolutely no complain about X7 Pro battery life.

            I use my smartphones many hours every day, for surf, calls and videos but I don't play. I'm on 5G most of the time and use it half outside, half inside. These phones don't show the screen on time, but I know how long I can use them.

            Here is what I get with theses phones.
            X6 Pro : 1,5 day
            F6 : 1,25 day
            X7 Pro : 2 days (HyperOS 2.0.9.0)

            My last charge lasted 61 hours. Poco maybe fixed what we read in this review.

                Luke, 15 Jan 2025that means prob 6h OST from 100 to 20%...Sounds not bad tbh... moreThat app is garbage anyways. And it doesn't clean as much as it says. It may clear only a few hundred megabytes out of one gigabyte. Remove the ad apps using adb or local adb and replace them with other apps from trusted sources or open source

I wonder if there is a way to disable all-screen ads in Xiaomi system cleaner app..or if there is another one that does the same job, without ads... can't stand those, even pop up in stores when I'm testing the xiaomi phones..

Better late then come fast with issues. And yeah i have not got the os 2.0 and Android update yet also on my F5 EU version

                      And it wont be long when Xiaomi be on par with Samsung with their pricing as already Redmi note series is too expensive and not worth it. I am not a fan of any brand. Well i have had most of my phones Nokia but thats cause of the market and in the era where was no smartphones. When touch screen phones started to come out then all electronics brands basically started to make them

And see reddit and Xiaomi Forums for opinions how "innovative" the update is and what it does to people's phones.
                        Ofc the Xiaomi fanbase here has no issues whatsoever, but they never had on any Xiaomi device with any software version in first place....

                          There's no excuse why Xiaomi 14 Ultra has worse battery life than S24 Ultra, they have similar displays, same SoC, same battery capacity
                          Same for Redmi Note 13 Pro+ vs Nothing Phone 2a

                              pl2rts, 15 Jan 2025My comparison with F5 was cause the chip is more closer the... moreYeah software implementation plays a big part too and Xiaomi has been doing worse since the days of MIUI 12.5

                              I got my X7 Pro today and first impressions are good though. Took like 4 hours of screen time from 65 to 20 percent. Other battery life reviews are inconsistent with GSMarena results, where Xiaomi phones get considerable worse scores. Will be keeping an eye on it in the next few days.

                                Weird that there are no news that HyperOS 3.0 can come earlier cause new Android number maybe coming in summer of 2025 and there for even Poco F5 can get the 3rd OS update as rumors state

                                  If we can only install Samsung OS on the Xiaomi phone then we can talk about what OS is better. Different hardware and specs all around makes the difference in battery life

                                  Even minor differences in specs can already make massive difference in battery consumption so as long as we cant just install OS on a single hardware we cant also compare the different phones in battery life. People just complain about all of that.

                                  Want bigger batteries but the difference is practically none existent
                                  The difference for me going from 4000mAh to 5000mAh was pretty much nothing and seems like from 5000mAh to 6000mAh is same. even tough the new tech should consume less but actually seems to consume a lot more. Well there are more features with new tech so hoping for bigger battery to solve it is not really worth it

                                        Anonymous, 14 Jan 2025HyperOS seems like a mistake. Should have just stuck with Miui. HyperOS is just rebranded MIUI, continuation of it. All of this talk that it's completely new UI made from scratch is a lie.
