Xiaomi’s Poco F7 is gearing up for a global spring 2025 release, following the Poco F7 Pro and Ultra, but leaks suggest its battery will shrink to 6,500mAh from the 7,550mAh in its Indian and Chinese variants. Certified in Singapore, this rebranded Redmi Turbo 4 Pro is set to pack a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and a vibrant AMOLED display.
The Poco F7 series is expanding, with the base Poco F7 now certified by Singapore’s IMDA under model 25053PC47G, confirming its global rollout. Initially pegged for an India-only launch after BIS certification (model 25053PC47I), the Poco F7 will hit multiple markets as a tweaked Redmi Turbo 4 Pro. The catch? Its battery drops to 6,500mAh globally, compared to 7,550mAh in India and China, a move echoing Xiaomi’s regional tweaks like the Poco X7 Pro’s 6,000mAh global battery versus 6,550mAh in India.
Powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4, the Poco F7 boasts a 6.83-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh and 3,200 nits brightness, ideal for gaming and media. It reportedly retains 90W wired charging and a 50MP OIS main camera. This battery downgrade, likely for cost or regulatory reasons, may disappoint fans, but the F7’s $300-400 price range (based on the F6’s $379) keeps it competitive against the iQOO Z10 Turbo.
To recall, the Poco F6 featured the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip, a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with 2,400 nits peak brightness, protected by Gorilla Glass Victus on the front, along with a plastic frame and back. It packed a 5,000mAh battery with 90W charging support, a 50MP 1/1.95” main camera paired with an 8MP ultrawide, and an optical fingerprint scanner beneath the display.
With the Poco F7 Pro ($499) and Ultra ($649) launched in March, the F7’s May debut could shake up the mid-range market. Will the smaller battery dent its appeal, or will its vibrant display and capable chip win over global buyers? Only time will tell.
