On the front, as we have previously reported, the POCO X2 will sport a RealityFlow 120Hz 6.7-inch display with FHD+ resolution, a 20:9 aspect ratio and the Intelligent dynamic refresh rate feature to help the phone last longer. It is P2i Splash-proof technology for water resistance.

For photography, it gets a quad-camera setup at the back, consisting of a 64MP Sony IMX686 sensor, an 8MP wide-angle camera, a 2MP depth sensor, and a 2MP macro camera. On the front, there is a dual selfie camera cluster housed in a pill-shaped punch-hole on the front, including a 20MP wide-angle sensor and a 2MP depth-sensing camera.
