Poco C65 was unveiled globally on November 5. The phone succeeds the Poco C55, which was released earlier this year in February with a MediaTek Helio G85 SoC and a 5,000mAh battery. The newly launched model shares the chipset and battery with the preceding model, but arrives with updated RAM, storage, and charging specifications. The Poco C65 features improved cameras compared to that of the Poco C55. The new smartphone is currently available for purchase in the US. India launch details of the phone are yet to be revealed.
The Poco C65 is offered in two storage variants. The 6GB + 128GB variant is priced at $129 (roughly Rs. 10,700), while the 8GB + 256GB option is listed at $149 (roughly Rs. 12,400). Early bird options are available at $109 (roughly Rs. 9,100) and $129 (roughly Rs. 10,700), respectively. The phone is available in three colour options - Black, Blue, and Purple.
The dual nano SIM-supported Poco C65 sports a 6.74-inch HD+ (1,600 x 720 pixels) display, with a refresh rate of 90Hz and an aspect ratio of 20.6:9. The display is protected with Corning Gorilla Glass. The phone runs Android 13-based MIUI 14 for Poco.
Poco's latest C series smartphone is equipped with a MediaTek Helio G85 SoC, similar to the Poco C55. The chipset in the newly launched Poco C65 is paired with an ARM Mali-G52 2EEMC2 GPU. It comes with up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and up to 256GB of eMMC 5.1 inbuilt storage, the latter of which is expandable up to 1TB via a microSD card.
