POCO F9 Ultra 12GB/256GB Red
POCO F9 Ultra with a 200MP camera, 8050mAh battery and 185Hz display
For the POCO F9 Ultra, Endless Ultra Power isn’t just a slogan, but an exact description of what the phone offers. The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, complemented by a dedicated VisionBoost D8 graphics chipset, pushes the gaming experience up to 185 FPS, while the 6.9″ AMOLED display with a 185Hz refresh rate ensures an exceptionally smooth and sharp picture. The camera system, featuring a 200MP main sensor, a 5× periscope telephoto lens, and an ultra-wide-angle lens, captures both detail and expansive scenes without compromise. An 8050mAh battery, the largest in the entire POCO F series, provides endurance, supported by 100W wired or 50W wireless charging. Bose-tuned audio and an IP68 certification complete the features of a phone that refuses to back down from any competition.

Sharp picture with extreme brightness and smoothness
The M11 display with POCO HyperRGB technology offers visual clarity comparable to 2K resolution, thanks to its groundbreaking sub-pixel structure, all while consuming significantly less power. A refresh rate of up to 185Hz takes smoothness to the next level, while a peak brightness of 4500 nits ensures excellent readability even in direct sunlight, and a top-tier 10000 nits illuminates details in HDR videos. With its 12-bit colour depth offering 68 billion colours, a wide DCI-P3 gamut, and support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+, the POCO F9 Ultra delivers true-to-life colour in films and games. Four TÜV Rheinland certifications ensure eye comfort, covering low blue light emissions, a flicker-free experience, and circadian rhythm adaptation.
POCO F9 Ultra captures every detail with breathtaking sharpness
The main 200MP sensor, with its large f/1.68 aperture and optical image stabilisation, delivers a level of detail never before seen on a POCO phone. The 16-in-1 super-pixel technology combines individual pixels into larger ones, allowing images to capture more light and clarity, even in twilight or evening scenes. Furthermore, a dedicated 200MP mode allows for more flexible cropping and composition, so you can extract several different shots from a single photograph without any visible loss of quality.
Distant scenes and detailed macro in one lens
Where the main sensor reaches its zoom limits, the 50MP periscope telephoto lens with 5× optical zoom and optical stabilisation takes over. The lossless zoom extends up to 10×, and with AI support, it reaches up to 20×, ensuring even distant subjects remain clear and sharp. What's more, the same lens can handle telemacro from a distance as close as 30 centimetres, making it the most versatile part of the POCO F9 Ultra's entire camera setup.
Expand your shot to capture the whole scene
At the other end of the spectrum, the camera system is completed by a 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens with an f/2.4 aperture, which captures vast landscapes, urban architecture, and group photos in a single shot. The higher resolution compared to standard wide-angle sensors results in more detail in the corners and even after cropping. Together with the main camera and the periscope telephoto lens, the POCO F9 Ultra covers the entire focal range, from a wide shot to a distant detail.
Sharp selfies and cinematic 8K video
The front-facing 32MP camera with a smart aperture for group photos captures sharp selfies that can comfortably fit all your friends in one shot. The rear camera system can record in up to 8K resolution at 30 frames per second, or 4K at 60 frames per second with gyroscopic image stabilisation for smooth results even while moving. The Live Cinematography mode allows you to create dynamic, cinematic shots with a smooth zoom-out or zoom-in effect with a single tap, perfect for travel videos and sharing on social media.
The highest battery capacity in the entire POCO F series
The 8050mAh capacity, built on a new ultra-high-density battery, is among the largest you will find on the market today. According to internal tests, this allows the POCO F9 Ultra to last up to two days with normal use—that's working, streaming videos, and gaming without constantly checking the remaining percentage. What's more, the battery life exceeds 1600 charging cycles while retaining over 80% of its original capacity, which corresponds to roughly six years of use with normal habits. Smart charging also limits the phone from overheating when gaming while charging, so performance doesn't drop even with the cable plugged in.
Fast charging with or without a cable
When charging time is limited, the 100W wired charging can replenish a large portion of the battery in just a few tens of minutes. For more convenient daily use, the phone also offers 50W wireless charging, so you just need to place the POCO F9 Ultra on a charging pad without having to plug in a cable. Both technologies also support reverse charging (27W wired, 22.5W wireless), so you can use the phone to charge another device, such as wireless headphones or a watch, if needed.
Performance that can handle even the most demanding games
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip with powerful Oryon V3 cores clocked at up to 4.6GHz and Adreno 840 graphics is among the fastest on the market today. Combined with 12GB of RAM and LiquidCool technology with a vapour chamber, the POCO F9 Ultra maintains high and stable performance even during long gaming sessions, without significant frame rate drops due to overheating. The WildBoost Engine system also optimises the distribution of power between the processor cores so that demanding games and multitasking run smoothly without unnecessary slowdowns.
A dedicated chip for a smoother, sharper gaming picture
In addition to the main processor, the POCO F9 Ultra also has a separate VisionBoost D8 chip that is dedicated exclusively to image processing and the gaming experience. Thanks to this, AI Super Resolution technology can intelligently interpolate missing details, increasing the perceived image quality in games without burdening the main processor. The Smart Frame Rate function smoothly inserts frames between individual phases, so games run at a stable high frame rate even in scenes that would otherwise slow down the phone's performance. The result is a visibly smoother and sharper image without the phone having to sacrifice battery life or thermal stability.
Stable performance even during long gaming sessions
The POCO 3D IceLoop cooling system uses a large vapour chamber that efficiently dissipates heat from the busiest parts of the processor and spreads it over a larger area of the phone's body. This allows the POCO F9 Ultra to maintain high and stable performance even during long gaming sessions, without a significant drop in frame rate due to overheating. The efficient heat dissipation also has a positive effect on the surface temperature of the phone, so the device remains pleasant to the touch even after hours of demanding gaming.
A stronger signal even where other phones lose connection
The dedicated Xiaomi Surge T1+ Tuner chip is exclusively responsible for signal quality and stability, independent of the phone's main processor. Thanks to intelligent antenna tuning and signal processing, the POCO F9 Ultra maintains a reliable connection even in areas with weaker coverage where a regular phone would lose signal completely. The offline communication feature also lets you stay in touch with other POCO devices even without a mobile network or Wi-Fi, which is useful in the mountains, at festivals, or in other places with limited coverage.
Xiaomi HyperOS 3 for a snappy system and smart background features
Built on Android 16, HyperOS 3 introduces HyperIsland, a dynamic notification bar that displays delivery status, music playback, timers or incoming calls directly at the top of the screen without you having to leave the current app. Additionally, the improved floating windows system in the POCO F9 Ultra makes multitasking more natural and fluid, so working with multiple apps at once doesn't feel clumsy. Deeper integration of artificial intelligence, including Google's Gemini assistant, adds practical AI features for searching, photo editing, and daily organisation. Xiaomi also promises to support the phone with four major system updates, so it will stay current even after a long period of use.
