![]() Many a time we inadvertently blocked the speaker grill while holding the phone in landscape mode and had to realign. The speaker placement to the left is a bit odd, though. The handset has a USB Type-C port and retains the good old audio jack. The fingerprint scan kicks in right when you place your thumb on the sensor and we never had to rely on the face unlock (which, too, works fast). It’s quite convenient to access, snappy and very reliable. ![]() The side-mounted fingerprint sensor, which is also the power button, proved to be surprisingly good. We believe this enhances the experience even for people who aren’t particularly into gaming, but not so much over the 90Hz screens. The star highlight is the 120Hz refresh rate which makes screen transitions and scrolling amazingly smooth on the X2. Colours appear well-calibrated, contrast is high, the screen is HDR10 compliant, and HD streaming is supported across apps, and the outdoor visibility is above average if not outright impressive. The IPS LCD panel can’t quite compare to the AMOLED punch, but it’s still a fine panel. We could make out that the edges aren’t very neat and this can get a bit annoying. Now we have had wide punch-hole notches before and even appreciated them, but something about the cut-out on the Poco X2 doesn’t feel quite right. On the front, it’s mostly display and a dual-camera punch-hole notch that makes the phone stand out. We were at least hoping for Poco-exclusive colors for India, or a more sober option, but these are the same gradients that are available for Redmi K30 in China. The X2 comes in three flashy gradient options – Atlantis Blue, Matrix Purple, and Phoenix Red. ![]() The camera module sticks out quite a bit and the bundled cover barely evens out the hump. The phone has a plastic side frame and a glass back with a Mate 30-like circular accent around the quad-camera array that looks good. Over the last year, our phones have evolved to be yet bigger and bulkier which is why we felt at home with the Poco X2 in spite of its 8.8mm thick waistline and 208 grams of heft.

Is it a phone that you can buy? Let’s now talk details and present our take on Poco S02E01. Of course, none of that naming chatter should matter if all you are looking for is to buy a decent phone that offers excellent value and can hold well in the long run. Poco has positioned its X2 against the Realme X2 and that explains, well, the ‘X2’ moniker. We might, after all, see the more powerful Poco F2 materialize soon. (Poco X2 Review हिंदी में पढ़िए)īefore we proceed with our Poco X2 review, let’s address what all Poco fans must already know – The X2 is rebranded Redmi K30 4G and it’s not a successor to the F1 ( review). The momentous and long overdue arrival of the new Poco is finally done with and we now need to answer if the Poco X2 got crushed under the elephantine expectations or whether it managed to emerge victorious.
