Poco M2 performance is just as good as you can expect with any premium smartphone. The performance of any budget-centric phone has never been this smooth under 15,000 INR, thanks to its Snapdragon 720G chipset!

Snapdragon 720G is an 8nm octa-core chipset that is powered with two high-performance Kryo Silver cores clocked at 1.8GHz and Kryo Gold cores clocked at 2.3Ghz. This chipset maintains a great balance between battery life and phone performance.

Also, the device comes with an Adreno 618 GPU clocked at 750Mhz controlling the quality of the graphic. Poco M2 does lag in doing GPU-driven tasks. For example, you may experience a little issue while gaming but in all the other aspects, the phone gives the top performance.

Summary

Camera

From a camera angle, Poco M2 comes with a quad-camera setup at the back. The rear camera comes with an autofocus setup and it sports an 8 MP front camera for selfies.

The front camera features a single 8MP f/2.0 Wide Angle Primary Shooter, which can click stunning selfies effortlessly.

Both front and back camera setup help you capture clear and bright photos in daylight. The colours in the photos look rich and vibrant even without enabling the Pro Mode. With Pro enabled mode, colours in the images look quite saturated, pretty similar to the point of looking unnatural. Hence, you will rarely feel the need to enable the Pro Colour mode.

Coming to the video mode, both front and back camera setups can shoot stunning steady videos with 1080p. Video quality is decent and stable even in low-light. Macro mode performs well in good lighting.

With so many advanced modes and camera options, this affordable phone can smoothly capture clear photos and shoot steady videos; anywhere, anytime.
