Poco X9 Pro Max

Overview

Reviewed by Priyanka Singh · Senior Consumer-Tech Editor

The Poco X9 Pro Max is Poco's take on a value-focused smartphone, built around ram of 12 GB, storage of 256 GB, display of 6.83 inches, 1280 x 2772 pixels, 144 Hz.. For daily driving, calls, social apps and photos it should hold up well. On the other side, power users should weigh the chipset and battery against heavier alternatives. Below you'll find the full specifications, live prices across stores, our editor's verdict, and a quality-checked refurbished alternative that can get you the same specs for noticeably less. If you value getting more for your money, the refurbished route is worth a serious look before buying new.
