How we rank POCO phones

Every POCO phone in our database is scored on four real-world dimensions: sustained thermal performance (measured over 30 minutes, not a 5-second burst), actual screen-on battery time, camera consistency across lighting conditions, and years of committed software updates.

Known reliability history and service network availability in India are factored into the overall score, helping ensure that the recommended models are backed by good support.
