SpecEagle Editorial·Jun 2025·$399·Score 82/100

POCO F7 brings a 6,500 mAh battery, IP68 and Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 to a globally-available $399 phone — the spec the iQOO Neo 10 series only offers in China. Against the F7 Ultra (full SD 8 Elite, smaller battery) it trades peak performance for battery and price.
