    POCO M6 Plus 5G Design and Build

    I got the POCO M6 Plus 5G in Ice Silver for review, which looks very beautiful. It is lightweight at 205 grams, so you can use it ideally without any fatigue.

    But this one has a pretty-looking glass back; this dual-tone design gives an excellent feel. Its frame is entirely plastic, and on the front side, it has a display with Corning Gorilla Glass 3 in the centre punch-hole design.

    Its transition between the glass and the frame is relatively smooth, but the edges are a bit sharp, which I personally do not like. POCO M6 Plus 5G’s design is suitable for one-hand use; the grip is good, and it does not slip, but it is easily prone to fingerprints.

    So, this thing gives a wrong impression of the phone’s design. You will get to see the speaker grill, Type C port and microphone on the bottom side.

    There is a 3.5mm jack and an infrared sensor on the top of the phone.

    On the right side, you will get to see the volume rocker, as well as the power button with an integrated fingerprint scanner.

    On the left side, you will see the SIM tray, which is a hybrid SIM slot. Its overall dimension is 168.6 x 76.3 x 8.3 mm.

    Verdict

    POCO M6 Plus 5G was launched recently. It is almost a clone of the Redmi 13 5G with a lower price. It offers a powerful battery, so users can use it for a long time at a single charge. Moreover, you can play games and other things without feeling warm.

    It also has a large display, offering only 1080p quality. So, you will not get excellent video quality. Its performance is quite average, but you can play games and watch long videos for a long time. I have a POCO M6 Plus 5G in Ice Silver, which looks very attractive. But its glass back can easily break in accidental drop. Moreover, its back is a little bit sharp, so it is also a drawback of this phone.

    In my POCO M6 Plus 5G review, it is an average device in this price range. Several phones are in this price range, including the OPPO K12x, Vivo T3x, Xiaomi Redmi 13 5G, Samsung Galaxy M34, Motorola Moto G64 5G, Realme Narzo 70 5G, etc. So, you can compare these phone features with the POCO M6 Plus 5G before buying it.
