POCO C65 standout features
The POCO C65, the successor to the C55, may be entry-level, but POCO has picked enough features to make it feel more than its value. Firstly, it comes with a 6.74-inch display with a resolution of 1600 x 720 pixels for users to enjoy their content on the go.
Not only that, but the display is a 90Hz panel that has a peak brightness of 600 nits and is certified by TÜV Rheinland for low blue-light emissions. You also get Corning® Gorilla® Glass screen on the front glass for extra protection.
The selfie camera is now an 8MP unit and on the back, the main camera is a 50MP sensor, powered by AI for filters and such. It comes with a feature that emulates a soft light ring for natural light effects, even in low light. There is also a 2MP Macro camera for times you need to take macro shots.
Inside, POCO chose The Mediatek Helio G85 processor to run the device and apps as required by the user. It is paired with up to 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of internal storage. Additionally, just plonk in a microSD card to expand your storage, as the phone supports up to 1TB.
You will get a 5,000mAh battery, plus 18W fast charging to juice you back up once the big battery is drained after a day’s use (although you only get a 10W charging brick in the box.
Other neat features include a side-mounted fingerprint scanner on the power button and dual-sim support. All of these features in a body that weighs only 192 grams.
