POCO M6 Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
7.6/10
Verdict
Similarities aside, the POCO M6 5G emerges as a promising smartphone for Flipkart users. The device delivers respectable performance and battery life. While the camera and viewing experience may not be exceptional, considering the price, you couldn't ask for more.
Pros
- Dual-tone design
- Respectable performance
- Good battery life
Cons
- Bloatware
- Slow charging speeds
Design and display
+
If you are a fan of a dual-tone design, the POCO M6 5G might appeal to you more than the Redmi 13C 5G. Typical to other POCO devices, the smartphone also comes with a rectangular bar (in this case it is black) with two camera rings and an LED flash. There is AI CAM, 50MP, and POCO text also etched on that bar.

Cameras

The camera setup on the POCO M6 5G includes a 50MP AI primary sensor paired with a 2MP depth unit and a 5MP selfie snapper. Daylight shots look acceptable despite a general lack of details and sharpness, whereas the colours look oversaturated. Indoors and low-light shots have considerable noise, which you can counter only to an extent with night mode at the expense of stability. As for selfies, they also lack clarity and skin tones might not look accurate. Overall, the POCO M6 photography capabilities are decent, nothing extraordinary, as expected from an entry-level smartphone.

Performance and software
+
Much like the Redmi 13C, the POCO M6 5G is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ SoC. This is aided by up to 8GB of RAM, 8GB of virtual RAM, and 256 GB of user-expandable storage. In terms of software, the handset runs Android 13-based MIUI 14 out of the box.

Battery and charging speeds
+
The POCO M6 5G ships with a typical 5,000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. However, for some reason, POCO ships a 10W charger with the box, leading to a charging time of over two hours for a full 0-100 percent charge. Using a compatible 18W adapter should complete the job within 90 minutes.
