Thanks to Poco Pixel binningthe main sensor produces 12 Mpx images by default to optimize brightness and detail.
Main module: 50 Mpx, f/1.5, eq. 26 mm
Compared to the Sony model and its 48MP main sensor, the Poco X7 Pro’s daytime shots look well-contrasted with faithful color measurements. Details stand out with good sharpness, and even complex elements, such as the characters on tarot cards, are rendered correctly. Of course, not everything is perfect: here and there there are some color glitches and minor software smoothing.
Compared to the X6 Pro, its successor relies on accentuating shapes here to give more details. outside The yellow veil that dominates night images in 2024: it gives way to a light orange hue, much more faithful to reality and significantly less intrusive in terms of color rendering. That said, in low light, digital noise is noticeable. Nevertheless, the results are much clearer and sharper than the blurry images produced by the Xperia 10 VI.
Ultra wide angle module: 8 Mpx, f/2.2, eq. 15 mm
The Poco X7 Pro’s ultra-wide angle struggles to convince even during the day. With its somewhat limited 8MP sensor, images lack sharpness, though it outperforms its direct rival by the same definition. Colorimetry is also respected with good dynamics. However, rendering remains fairly average, despite a fairly well-controlled distortion.
Night shots, on the other hand, are still just as devastating and tend to be yellow. Between the small elements of the scene, such as color chips, and the presence of digital noise that’s hard to mask by smoothing the image, the whole thing is too little to be usable.
Front and video module
On the Poco Video side, the device supports 1080p at 30 frames per second (fps) on both the front and back, and up to 4K 60 fps with the main module on the back of the phone. A combination of optical (OIS) and electronic (EIS) stabilization effectively improves the smoothness of shots.
