POCO C81x features simplified design and smaller battery

Diferente of its bigger brother, the POCO C81x arrives with a 5,200 mAh battery. Embora is lower than the 6,300 mAh of the standard model, the brand still surpasses many direct competitors that usually stay at 5,000 mAh. The design of the C81x also follows a minimalist line, featuring just one camera on the back, as revealed by official images from Flipkart.

Ambos devices must give up 5G connectivity to maintain a competitive price. Essa decision is common in entry-level models, prioritizing the stability of the 4G signal and the reduction of production costs for the end consumer. The target audience is users who use their smartphone for basic tasks, such as social networking, messaging and light media consumption, where the large 6.9-inch screen can be a differentiator.

Official Lançamento takes place this Thursday at Índia

It is expected that all pricing and global availability details will be revealed during the April 23rd event. The hardware should be complemented by an 8 MP front camera for video calls and simple selfies. The choice of the UNISOC T7250 processor reinforces the proposal of a device focused on energy efficiency and tasks that do not require high graphics processing.

The entry-level smartphone market has seen a rush for bigger batteries in recent months. With the increase in consumption of short videos on social platforms, autonomy has become the main purchasing criterion for many users. POCO seems to have identified this trend by offering a device that can easily exceed two days away from the socket with moderate use. Até At the moment, the company has not commented on official values ​​for the Brazilian market.
