POCO F9 Ultra 12GB/256GB Red
POCO F9 Ultra with a 200MP camera, 8050mAh battery and 185Hz display
‘Endless Ultra power’ is not just a slogan for the POCO F9 Ultra series, but an accurate 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. Power is provided by an 8050mAh battery, the largest in the entire POCO F series, which is supplemented by 100W wired or 50W wireless charging. Bose-tuned audio and an IP68 certification complete the features of a phone that refuses to yield to any competition.

A 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 stunning 10000 nits illuminates details in HDR videos. A 12-bit colour depth with 68 billion colours, a wide DCI-P3 gamut, and support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+ deliver true-to-life colours in movies and games on the POCO F9 Ultra. Eye comfort is ensured by four TÜV Rheinland certifications, covering low blue light emissions, flicker-free performance, and circadian rhythm adaptation.
The POCO F9 Ultra captures every detail with breathtaking sharpness
The main 200MP sensor with a 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 superpixel technology combines individual pixels into larger units, allowing images to capture more light and clarity, even in dim or evening scenes. Furthermore, a dedicated 200MP mode allows for freer cropping and composition, so you can extract several different shots from a single photo with no visible loss of quality.
Distant scenes and detailed macro in a single lens
Where the main sensor reaches its zoom limits, the 50MP periscope telephoto lens with 5× optical zoom and optical stabilisation takes over. Lossless zoom extends up to 10×, and with AI support, it reaches up to 20×, ensuring even distant subjects remain clear and sharp. This same lens also handles telemacro shots from as close as 30 centimetres, making it the most versatile component of the POCO F9 Ultra's camera system.
Expand your shot to include the whole scene
At the other end of the spectrum, the system is complemented 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 greater detail in the corners and after cropping. Together with the main camera and the periscope telephoto lens, the POCO F9 Ultra covers the entire focal range, from wide shots to distant details.
Sharp selfies and cinematic video in 8K resolution
The front 32MP camera with an intelligent aperture for group photos captures sharp selfies that 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 lets you create a dynamic, cinematic shot with a smooth zoom-out or zoom-in effect at the touch of a button, ideal 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 can find on the market today. According to internal tests, this allows the POCO F9 Ultra to achieve up to two days of battery life with normal use, including work, video streaming, and gaming, without constantly checking the remaining percentage. Furthermore, the battery life exceeds 1600 charging cycles while retaining over 80% of its original capacity, which corresponds to roughly six years of use with typical habits. Smart charging also limits the phone's heating during gaming while charging, so performance does not drop even when plugged in.
Fast charging, with or without a cable
When charging time is limited, 100W wired charging replenishes a large portion of the battery in just a few dozen minutes. For more convenient daily use, the phone also offers 50W wireless charging, allowing you to simply place the POCO F9 Ultra on a charging pad without needing to connect a cable. Both technologies also support reverse charging (27W wired, 22.5W wireless), so you can use the phone to charge other devices, such as wireless headphones or a watch, if needed.
Performance that handles 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. Paired 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 power distribution between the processor cores to ensure demanding games and multitasking run smoothly without unnecessary slowdowns.
Dedicated chip for smoother and sharper gaming visuals
Alongside the main processor, the POCO F9 Ultra features a separate VisionBoost D8 chip that is dedicated exclusively to image processing and the gaming experience. This enables AI Super Resolution technology to intelligently interpolate missing details, thereby increasing the perceived image quality in games without burdening the main processor. The Smart Frame Rate feature smoothly inserts frames between individual phases, ensuring 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 picture, 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 effectively dissipates heat from the busiest areas 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 phone's surface temperature, so the device remains comfortable to the touch even after hours of demanding gaming.
A stronger signal 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 normal 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
The HyperOS 3 system, built on Android 16, 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 your current app. Additionally, the improved floating window system in the POCO F9 Ultra makes multitasking more natural and fluid, so working with multiple apps at once doesn't feel cumbersome. Deeper integration of artificial intelligence, including the Google 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 remain current even after extended use.
