Weekly poll results: the Poco F7 Pro and F7 Ultra are promising but pricey

Last week’s poll shows that the new Poco F7 series brings an appealing pair of phones, but the pricing is on the high side for what is a value-for-money brand. It doesn’t help that there’s no vanilla model or that the Pro got more expensive in some regions.
The Poco F7 Ultra proved to be more popular than its sibling. However, it also feels the pricing issue more keenly. Of course, Xiaomi is no stranger to discounts and promotions, but you will need to be patient.

The case of the Poco F7 Pro is an interesting one – it’s closer to the traditional price points for a Poco phone and a number of readers have already set their sights on it. However, there were quite a few comments from people who are leaning towards the Poco X7 Pro instead. While not quite as good as the F7 Pro, the much lower price of the X7 Pro makes it a better deal in their eyes.
