Our Poco X7 Pro battery life test is now ready

Ro, 14 January 2025

The Poco X7 Pro features a hefty 6,000 mAh battery (at least the global variant), which is quite generous. The battery powers the Dimensity 8400 Ultra SoC and a 6.67-inch OLED display, which looks like a combo with great potential when it comes to power autonomy.

Unfortunately, the Poco X7 Pro fell short of our expectations. Sure, the device achieved an Active Use Score of 12:43h, which is around average or for its class, but most competitors are running on smaller cells. That's to say the Poco X7 Pro fails to make its larger cell count.

The phone could use some improvements in the web browsing and video playback runtimes, although this is an issue we've been observing on most recent HyperOS devices, so it's not an entirely new development.

On the upside, the Poco X7 Pro offers a decent improvement in overall battery endurance compared to its predecessor, the Poco X6 Pro.
