Poco X5 Pro: Specs and Features

The Poco X5 Pro resembles the Redmi Note 12 series but has the Poco elements like the big rectangular block to house the camera hump with the Poco branding and the signature Poco Yellow color. Poco X5 Pro also comes in Astral Black and Horizon Blue color variants. The phone has flat edges and a punch-hole screen.
