Poco F9 Pro, F9 Ultra Chipsets Teased

In an X post, Poco revealed confirmed that the upcoming Poco F9 series will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset family. The handsets are expected to mirror the chipset configuration of the corresponding Redmi K100 series models in China. The Poco F9 Ultra will feature the standard Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, while the Poco F9 Pro is confirmed to use the binned version of the SoC, known as the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 V series.

The announcement comes a day after the company revealed that the global launch of the series will take place on September 1. Poco's F9 Ultra will come in a Dark Cherry colourway, with glass-fibre finish. On the other hand, the F9 Pro will be available in Aurora Green, featuring full-panel luminous design that can absorb sunlight or indoor light and emit a soft, uniform glow in darkness.

Previous reports have suggested that the F9 Pro could feature a 6.59-inch QHD+ Plastic OLED display with a 185Hz refresh rate, while the F9 Ultra may get a larger 6.85-inch display with a 2,608x1,200-pixel resolution. Both phones are expected to be available with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.

The F9 Pro is tipped to feature a triple rear-camera setup with a 50-megapixel primary camera with OIS, 8-megapixel ultrawide camera and 50-megapixel 3x telephoto camera with OIS. The F9 Ultra could add a 50-megapixel ultrawide camera and 50-megapixel 5x telephoto camera.

Per reports, the Pro model could debut a 6,330mAh battery, while the F9 Ultra is expected to pack a larger 8,050mAh cell. Both phones could support 100W wired charging.
