Reviews for the Xiaomi Poco M2 Pro

POCO M2 Pro Review: Better option than Redmi Note 9 Pro under Rs. 15000
Source: Fone Arena English Archive.org version
The realme 6i is a good competition for the same price that comes with a 90Hz screen and offers a better gaming experience. The Samsung Galaxy M21 is another good option that also offers good battery life and comes an AMOLED screen.

Overall, the Poco M2 Pro is a well-packaged phone. This phone is ideal for those looking for a smartphone under Rs 15,000 (base variant) that offers decent performance and great battery life, captures stunning pictures in most lighting conditions, and looks unique. Oh, it is also for people tired of ads.

80% Poco M2 Pro review: A better Redmi Note 9 Pro
Source: Android Authority English Archive.org version
The Poco M2 Pro is the company's take on the Redmi Note 9 Pro with amped-up charging and an ad-free experience. Sure, the phone is a play on an existing formula but the end result is a better product for the buyer and there's little to complain about that.

70% Poco M2 Pro review: The perfect Redmi Note 9 Pro alternative?
Source: India Today English Archive.org version
However, the reality is that Poco fans are not your average smartphone users. Spoilt by the excesses of the Poco X2 Pro and the original Poco F1, many Poco fans may feel a little underwhelmed by the Poco M2 Pro. Some may even be left disappointed with the Poco M2 Pro sharing so much in design and hardware with the Redmi Note 9 Pro. And at the end of the day, this comparison more than anything else, may just end up being the biggest headache for the new Poco phone, which in isolation is quite good a phone for then price point that it starts retail for.

Source: Gadgets Now English Archive.org version
If you are too confused with so many options in the budget smartphone range and looking for a no-frills handset at around Rs 15,000 which offers good display, battery life, dual SIM 4G support, decent cameras and good looks, then the Poco M2 Pro makes good sense. It’s an all-rounder for daily usage and will not disappoint. Other options include Redmi Note 9 Pro, Realme 6 Pro, Samsung Galaxy M21 and Galaxy M30s.

80% POCO M2 Pro review: This Redmi Note 9 Pro clone ditches the ads

The POCO M2 Pro builds on a great foundation by offering 33W fast charging and an ad-free MIUI software experience. The 6.67-inch FHD+ screen is one of the best in this segment, the Snapdragon 720G delivers reliable performance, you'll easily get two-day battery life, the 64MP camera is great in day-to-day use, and the design is gorgeous. The M2 Pro is one of the best budget phones you'll find today.

80% Poco M2 Pro Review
Source: NDTV Gadgets English Archive.org version
I think the Poco M2 Pro is a good addition to the sub-Rs. 15,000 smartphone segment, and I have no trouble recommending it. In a lot of ways, you could think of it as a Redmi Note 9 Pro (Review) with quicker charging at a similar price. Plus, it should be a lot easier to buy compared to Xiaomi's flash sale system. The M2 Pro offers good build quality, a sharp display, solid battery life, and good performance. The cameras are not too bad either, provided you're shooting during the day.
