Xiaomi is developing a new smartphone called the POCO X7 Pro. This device is part of the mid-range category and there are reports indicating that it could be the first smartphone in India to run on HyperOS 2.0. The Xiaomi 15 was the initial phone to feature this custom skin based on Android 15, but it seems the POCO X7 Pro may take that title in India.
What to Look Forward To
According to a report from SmartPrix, which cites a source familiar with the situation, the Xiaomi 15 has just been introduced in China with HyperOS 2.0, while its launch in India is anticipated around March 2025. This suggests that the POCO X7 Pro could arrive in India before the Xiaomi 15. To give some context, the POCO X6 Pro was launched in India in January 2024, so it’s reasonable to think that the POCO X7 Pro could follow a similar schedule.
Potential Specs of the POCO X7 Pro
From what’s been gathered, the POCO X7 might actually be a renamed version of the Redmi Note 14 Pro. In essence, it could be a rebranded Redmi Note 14 Pro+ model. Xiaomi has already announced the launch of the Redmi Note 14 series for December, so it wouldn’t be unexpected if the POCO X7 and POCO X7 Pro hit the Indian market shortly after, possibly around the same time. Historically, Xiaomi has been known to release different versions of the same phone under its various sub-brands with minor tweaks.
If indeed the POCO X7 Pro is a rebranded Note 14 Pro+, we can expect it to feature a 6.67-inch AMOLED display boasting a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. On the back, it may sport a camera setup of 50MP (Main) + 50MP (Telephoto) + 8MP (Ultrawide). Similar to the Note 14 Pro+, the POCO X7 Pro is likely to be powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 SoC as well. Furthermore, it’s expected to house a substantial 6,200mAh battery that supports 90W wired fast charging.
