After being teased a few days back, the Poco C65 became official today. As the successor of the Poco C55, the smartphone builds on its predecessor and offers some improvements in some of the crucial aspects.
Among those improvements, the Poco C65 comes with a better display, faster charging, and, most importantly, a better camera system. But it’s not an entirely brand-new device, as some of the specs of the handset match with its predecessor.
Main Highlights of Poco C65
On the front, the Poco C65 has a 6.74-inch IPS LCD screen with a 1600x720px resolution. It’s a bit larger and packs more pixels than the predecessor. But what’s really important about the screen is that it supports a 90Hz refresh rate. The C55 came with a 60Hz refresh rate. Thanks to this, the motions on the new smartphone will feel more fluid.
The front also houses the 8MP selfie camera, which is a step up from the 5MP unit found in the Poco C55. Poco has also integrated a soft light ring on the selfie camera of C65. This will make the phone offer better selfie performance even in low-light conditions.
Gizchina News of the week
On the back, the Poco C65 comes with a 50MP primary sensor. It has a f/1.8 aperture and is paired by a 2MP f/2.4 macro sensor. The inclusion of a macro camera is good, as the predecessor came with a 0.08MP depth camera. As for the battery, the smartphone features a 5000mAh cell that can charge at 18 watts.
To compare, the Poco C55 could only charge at 10 watts. More importantly, the Poco C65 comes with a USB type-C port, while the C55 features a dated micro-USB port. These two improvements will offer a better charging experience on the new smartphone.
The rest of the specs are pretty standard. Poco utilized the same MediaTek Helio G85 found in the Poco C55 in the new phone. As for storage and RAM, there are two options available: 6/128 and 8/256. The C65 is available in purple, blue, and black. Poco will soon offer pricing and availability info regarding the device.
