Verdict

The Xiaomi Poco C75 (8GB + 256GB variant) is a budget-friendly smartphone offering solid performance for daily tasks. It features a large 6.88-inch IPS LCD display with an adaptive 120Hz refresh rate and a resolution of 720 x 1640 pixels. The phone is powered by a MediaTek Helio G81-Ultra octa-core processor (or Snapdragon 4s Gen 2 in some 5G regions) and runs on Xiaomi HyperOS based on Android 14. Photography is handled by a 50MP AI dual main camera system and a 13MP front camera (some regions have a 5MP front camera). A substantial 5160mAh battery supports 18W fast charging, and a 3.5mm headphone jack is included. Pros include its excellent value for money, large high-refresh-rate screen, and long battery life. Cons often mention the lower HD+ display resolution, average low-light camera performance, and the fact that a fast 18W charger is often not included in the box (only a 10W charger is provided in some markets).
