POCO has just launched the POCO C71 in the Philippines, and it’s one of the most stylish and capable entry-level smartphones you can buy. It packs impressive hardware, a clean modern design, and a surprisingly smooth user experience for its price.
Powerful Performance at Budget Price
The POCO C71 is powered by a UNISOC T7250 chipset, which brings a big jump in speed compared to the last generation. This means smoother app switching, better multitasking, and even solid mobile gaming. It also has up to 128GB of storage and the option to expand memory by up to 8GB, so you won’t feel limited.
Immersive Screen That’s Easy on the Eyes
The POCO C71 features a large 6.88-inch display with a wide 20.5:9 aspect ratio and a screen-to-body ratio of 90%, making it great for watching videos or browsing social media. The 1640x720 resolution may not be ultra-high, but the screen quality holds up well for everyday use.
It also has a 120Hz AdaptiveSync refresh rate that adjusts automatically depending on what you’re doing—keeping things smooth while saving battery. The display is TÜV Rheinland certified for low blue light, flicker-free visuals, and circadian-friendly lighting. It also uses DC dimming to reduce strain, especially in low-light settings.

Camera System That Punches Above Its Weight
One of the standout features of the POCO C71 is its upgraded 32MP dual-camera system. The main camera now captures more light, which means clearer, brighter photos even at night. The 8MP selfie camera also gets a boost, delivering detailed selfies with natural colors. And if you're taking selfies in darker areas, the built-in Fill light helps brighten your face for a better shot.

Sleek Design
Despite being an affordable device, the POCO C71 doesn’t look cheap. It has a slim profile at just 8.26mm, with a clean and flat design that feels premium. It comes in three classy colors—Black, Gold, and Blue—and the camera bump has a stylish look that adds to its overall modern feel.
