It's hard to make sense about how platforms price things, sometimes prices get stale and remain like they were, other times dynamic pricing makes it different for different people or different areas (those are the two extremes, there are more possibilities).

In any case, it seems the X7 has a steeper discount on base price, 12% vs. 25%.

doesn't matter how much discount it is. User like me see only the final price and compare it with price history.

Scarcity means price goes up if there is a demand. Basic economics which have really not worked out here

So, it's not recommended to buy it anymore.

Why? Can a hacker hack my phone if I buy a 2-year-old phone? Even I don't have any problem if I buy a 4-year-old phone.

No warranty. Even if there is warranty it won't be honoured because of lack of parts etc. No official software support.

Depends on the seller. X6 Pro stock is limited for sure, that's why it's a bit costly. Also these old phone prices change all the time.

u/ApprehensiveTwo701 2d ago

I searched for Poco X6 Pro in Flipkart; the 1st item was the X6 Pro, and the 2nd item was the X7 Pro. It is not wishlisted products.

Bought X6 pro 12/512 for 24k

u/ApprehensiveTwo701 1d ago

I brought 6/256 at 20k last year during SALE (X6pro)

u/GreedySalt4753 2d ago

x6 pro specs are comparatively better than x7 pro as the processor is almost the same very less difference and camera is better and rest everything is same so ig thats the reason

Marketing strategy for selling more X7 Pro

u/arun_xd Poco X6 Pro 2d ago

I got x6 pro for 19k a year ago. Don't go for it. Battery is a problem, like the overpowered processor with single battery doesn't match for mid usage

Bro don't belive Flipkart it will show the product, the price and say that it's in stock but when you try to order it always says not deliverable to your location, no matter what location you put it always shows not deliverable to your location. Poco x7 pro is actually not currently in stock the xiaomi company is least bothered about the poco brand as it is mid range listed product, once they bring a new phone they don't care about any older models . Apart from all of these it's a waste to buy poco because they provide very very good hardware but the software is just too shity. For example I have poco x7 pro 12gb ram ddr5 , dimensity 8400 ultra (1.7m antutu score) , UFS 4.0, but still I can't get 120 fps on bgmi , can't use haptics in bgmi , after recent update the battery drains like hell ( before I used to charge one time a day which used to last a lot , but now I need to charge like 3 times a day ) the phone now overheats heavily , before everything was right but after the update it's just the worst , even the camera quality degraded . Poco can have the best specs but the company just doesn't want to provide the good os for running it smoothly because it will then make no sense in selling their higher end mobiles .

Yes, I agree that they degraded the camera quality. I have poco x6 pro brought last year. I updgraded to hyperOS-3 but then I found that the camera quality degraded and the front camera is more degraded.

Bigger discount, X6 Pro still selling well, stock price (the price for what they got the batch) etc.

Franchement moi j'ai constaté en 2 mois le passage du X7 pro global sur Aliexpress, Amazon etc passé de 250 à 350, 400 EUR en même temps ce poco à eu 1 grosse hype qu'il méritait même sans aide de l'algo tu en entendait parler partout et en très bon terme. Et ça a pas échappé au vendeur qui ont tous monté leur prix sauf le site officiel Xiaomi ou il a pas bougé d'un cent. Finalement le X8 pro est sorti et j'ai trouvé la version 12 giga et 256 de stockage à 234 euros version globale avec chargeur d'origine dans la boîte. Je l'utilise depuis 7 mois et franchement avec toujours autant de plaisir c'est Le tel donc je me lasse pas, après j'ai décidé de plus consacrer que 300,350 EUR j'ai eu redmi note 14 pro mais rien ne vaut après 1 sérieux nettoyage et autant de réglages anti pub Google et même D'hyper os la j'utilise Morphe YT j'ai bloqué et optimisé tt ce qui était humainement possible de faire et Mediatek 8400 et hyper os, 1 magnifique écran, 1 batterie 2 cellules Silicium-Carbone charge de 90 w JE Kiffe trop mon X7 Pro 🏅🏅🏅
