Poco’s budget 5G play is simple: a Dimensity 6300 chip, a 6,000mAh battery and a 120Hz screen for Rs. 51,999 (Expected). That is a lot of phone for the money, and Poco knows it. One thing to be clear about up front: that price comes from an India-market (IND) row on MobileDokan, converted from ৳23,000, so it is an estimate of what the phone could cost here, not a Pakistan launch price.
The phone is big and heavy. At 173.2 x 81.1 x 8 mm and 211 g, it fills the hand, and you will feel it in a pocket. It carries an IP64 rating for dust and water splashes, which is welcome at this price. Colours are Mystic Purple, Spring Green and Power Black.
The 6.9-inch IPS LCD runs at 120Hz and reaches 810 nits in high-brightness mode, so it is big, smooth and readable outdoors. The catch is the resolution. At 720 x 1600 pixels across 6.9 inches, you get around 254 ppi, and text will look softer than on a 1080p panel. This is the compromise Poco hopes you will not notice. If you read a lot on your phone, you will.
Inside is the MediaTek Dimensity 6300, a 6 nm mid-range 5G chip with two 2.4 GHz Cortex-A76 cores and six 2.0 GHz Cortex-A55 cores, plus Mali-G57 graphics. It handles everyday apps and light gaming without fuss. Storage comes in 128GB and 256GB, and RAM in 4GB, 6GB and 8GB. A dedicated microSDXC slot takes a memory card without stealing a SIM slot.
The dual camera is led by a 50MP main lens (f/1.8, PDAF) with an auxiliary lens beside it. In daylight it should take decent photos, and it records 1080p video at 30fps. There is no ultrawide, and the 8MP front camera is basic, so selfies and wide shots are not this phone’s strong point.
The 6,000mAh battery is the headline. With a power-efficient chip and a 720p screen, two days from a charge is realistic for light users, and a full day is easy for everyone else. Charging is decent too: 33W wired PD gets you to 50% in 28 minutes, and there is 10W reverse wired charging for topping up earbuds.
The phone ships with Android 15 and HyperOS 2, with up to two major Android upgrades promised. That is a fair software deal for a budget phone, and it puts the Poco ahead of older budget rivals still shipping Android 14.
Connectivity covers 5G, Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 5.4, FM radio and USB-C 2.0 with OTG. There is a 3.5mm headphone jack, a side-mounted fingerprint reader and a dedicated microSDXC slot. NFC is unspecified on MobileDokan, so do not count on it for payments.
Buying in Pakistan? Check the IMEI and the exact model number before paying, and ask the seller to confirm the warranty in writing. Check the PTA status yourself through DIRBS, and remember the 60-day DIRBS/PTA registration window once the phone is in use. PTA tax for this model is not yet confirmed.
Final Verdict: If you want 5G and battery life for Rs. 51,999 Expected, the Poco C85 5G is hard to beat. If screen sharpness matters to you, look elsewhere.
