Poco has unveiled its latest smartphone, the Poco C75, featuring a large 6.88in screen along with a relatively sizeable battery, coming in at 5,160mAh. The device's display has a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, which should translate to a smoother user experience.

On the back of the device is a 50-megapixel main camera, which the company claims uses artificial intelligence (AI) to capture sharper and more vibrant images. The C75 also includes a 13-megapixel selfie camera positioned on a small teardrop-shaped notch. The fingerprint reader is integrated into the power button, and for those who prefer wired earphones, the smartphone features a 3.



5mm audio jack. Under the hood, the C75 is equipped with a MediaTek Helio G81-Ultra processor, with the choice between two storage variants – either 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage (priced at RM499) or 8GB RAM and 256GB storage (priced at RM599). It charges at 18W, but do note it does not come with a charger in the box.

Shoppers can choose from three colour options for the Poco C75: Black, Gold, and Green. The device will be available for purchase on Nov 10 exclusively via the Mi online store and official Poco stores on Lazada and Shopee. It is also worth noting that buyers will be eligible for a discount during the early bird period, which runs until Nov 30, with the 6GB RAM and 128GB variant priced at RM409 and 8GB RAM and 256GB version at RM469.

The company also launched the Poco Pad in the country, a tablet which features a 12.1in display (with up to 120Hz refresh rate), 10,000mAh battery (with 33W fast charging), and a Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 processor. The Poco Pad will only be available in a single storage configuration, with 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage.

The device's camera setup includes an 8-megapixel sensor on both the front and rear, and will only be available in a single storage configuration, with 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage, but does have support for up to 1TB of expandable storage. The tablet will be available in Grey and Blue, and is priced at RM1,399, though it will be discounted to RM1,299 between Nov 11 to Nov 13..
