Poco has just announced two fresh flagship smartphones , the F6 and the F6 Pro and according to the brand , the latter “ closes the gap on high - end carrying into action phones ” .

How does the Poco F6 Pro compare to the Poco X6 Pro which launched back in January 2024 ?   While we have n’t reviewed the Poco F6 Pro , we have reviewed thePoco X6 Proand give the smartphone a almost - perfect 4.5 - star rating .

We ’ve compare the specs of the two mid - range handset and highlight the cardinal divergence between them below .

The F6 Pro boasts the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

The two handsets run on unlike chipsets , with the Poco X6 Pro scat on MediaTek’sDimensity 8300 - Ultra and the F6 Pro running on Qualcomm’sSnapdragon 8 Gen 2 .

Of the two mainframe , the Dimensity 8300 - Ultra is newer having launched in November 2023 while the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 launched back in November 2022 , but the latter is really the more capable of the two .   In fact , it was the chipset of choice for top - goal smartphones throughout 2023 until the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 came along .

That said , we found that the comprehension of the Dimensity 8300 - Ultra made using the X6 Pro “ a delectation to use on a day - to - Clarence Day basis ” and “ even during heavy multitasking . ” Our art bench mark results also showed that when comparing the X6 Pro to likewise priced competition , it was easily at the top of the heap .

While we are yet to prove the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor specifically with the F6 Pro , we found when reviewing similar 2023 flagship smartphones that used the chipset , such as theOnePlus 11performance was firm with “ no foretoken of stutter or lag ” even with grave employment .

The X6 Pro has a larger 64MP main camera

Both the F6 Pro and X6 Pro have a trio of rear cameras and a 16MP front - facing camera . Of the rear - facing troika , both handsets include an 8MP ultrawide lens with f/2.2 aperture and a 2MP macro lense with f/2.4 aperture , however they dissent with their chief lens offering .

While the F6 Pro has a 50MP main lens system fit with flagship target image stabilisation ( OIS ) , the X6 Pro brag a 64MP principal lens without OIS keep .

As we have n’t test the F6 Pro ’s snap - shooting ability ourselves yet , we ca n’t say whether the F6 Pro ’s depleted MP lens with OIS support is any well than the X6 Pro . However we did note in our review of the X6 Pro that the “ the main tv camera … is very decent . There ’s plenty of detail , the colours expect realistic and the HDR effect is more natural than we ’ve seen from some other twist . ”

Our reader also noted that the X6 Pro ’s main photographic camera is “ joined by the intimate and unimpressive 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro combo ” which “ are n’t quite up to the standard fix by the other cameras , and are best deflect for the most part ” . With this in mind , we ’d have reason to assume this is similar to the F6 Pro .

The F6 Pro has 120W HyperCharge

Both the F6 Pro and X6 Pro have a 5000mAh battery capacity , which is middling stock with smartphones now . We were impressed with the X6 Pro ’s 67W turbocharging , which we found took us from 1 - 100 % in just 45 minutes .

The F6 Pro tone set up to abbreviate this recharge time even further thanks to the inclusion body of truly rapid 120W HyperCharge , which Poco promises will get you to 100 % in just 19 minutes .

The F6 Pro reaches 4000 nits peak brightness

The display of the F6 Pro promise to impress , thanks to its “ industry - leading ” borderless glass deco design and 120Hz Flow AMOLED Dot Display which should deliver gamy sluttish efficiency with low major power consumption , even with a WQHD+ solvent . The F6 Pro is also capable of a massive 4000 nit crest luminosity which Poco explains will provide users a “ in full immersive ocular experience . ”

The X6 Pro also boasts a remarkable display , which our reviewer concluded was “ nothing short of telling ” . While the French telephone blow an impressive CrystalRes 1.5 K Flow AMOLED Dot Display venire for rich colours , its brightness level descend myopic when compared to the F6 Pro , reaching a peak of 1800 nits .

Having said that , it ’s deserving take down that 1800 nit is still telling and means the phone is available even in unmediated sunshine .

The X6 Pro is cheaper

by nature as the older of the two , the X6 Pro has a cheaper RRP of £ 369/€349.90 . The F6 Pro is slightly more expensive , come out at £ 499/€579 .
