Unboxing the Poco X5 Pro 5G, with a hands-on review of the camera, gaming performance, battery life and MiUI 14 experience. The Poco X5 Pro 5G is one of the first budget smartphones to launch in 2023 but is it one of the best, and how does it compare vs the X4 Pro?

So yeah, most of the phone specs are identical to the previous gen. The Poco X5 Pro serves up the same 108MP Samsung HM2 camera as before, with respectable performance as long as things don't get too dark. Battery size remains 5000mAh with 67W fast charging support. And the AMOLED display is yet another stunner, with 120Hz refresh.

However, the Poco X5 Pro 5G does boost the performance vs the X4 Pro, offering a Snapdragon 778G chipset - same as the Nothing Phone. Gamers will enjoy a smooth, fluid experience on Genshin Impact, PubG and other big Android titles, complete with a dedicated gaming mode. This upgrade also means the Poco X5 Pro can shoot 4K video with the main camera, unlike the previous generation smartphone.

So is this one of the best budget-friendly mid-range phones of 2023? We don't have a UK price at the time I shot this video, but I'll update once the release date etc is known!
