Great experience with the order and the ergonomics of the site. Bad experience with the delivery no call no contact possible with UPS no notice of passages therefore blocked to recover my parcel. I had to have it delivered to the centre. I will gladly try again, but this time I'll have it delivered to the centre straight away!

Like new, no nasty surprises, no regrets. And the battery holds up really well - I went 2 days without recharging!

The Xiaomi Poco X5 is a mid-range smartphone released in February 2023 that keeps things practical and straightforward. While not the newest kid on the block by 2025, it offers 5G connectivity, a vibrant 6.67-inch AMOLED display, and a triple-camera setup. A solid choice for those who value reliable performance and a punchy screen without all the flash of flagship models.

Key features:

Release Date: February 2023
Display: 6.67-inch AMOLED, FHD+ (1080 x 2400 px), 120Hz refresh rate
Processor: Snapdragon 695 5G
Camera: Triple rear camera (48MP wide, 8MP ultra-wide, 2MP macro)
Operating System: Ships with Android 12 (MIUI 13)
Build: Plastic frame with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 front
Connectivity: 5G, Dual-band Wi-Fi 5 (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac), Bluetooth 5.1

Who is this for?

The Xiaomi Poco X5 is ideal for students, commuters, and casual users who want a big, vibrant display for streaming or social media, but don’t need top-tier processing power. Compared to flagship models, the Poco X5 skips the camera bells and whistles but keeps everyday use zippy and honest. If you’re after a straightforward, no-nonsense 5G device for daily tasks, this one fits the bill.

Pros & Cons:

Pros	Cons
Bright AMOLED display with smooth 120Hz refresh rate.	Plastic build lacks the premium feel of higher-end phones.
5G connectivity keeps it ready for faster networks.	Camera setup is basic, missing advanced photography features.
Large display is great for video content and web browsing.	Software updates may be less frequent than with flagship models.

Why refurbished?
