Power meets personality: Why POCO's new phones are a vibe not just a device
These aren't just gadgets — they're statements. Whether you're chasing performance, aesthetics, or value, POCO has created two phones that are tailor-made for two completely different lifestyles. So… which POCO are you?
Let's meet the contenders.
The POCO X7 Pro – For the Boss Who Doesn't Clock Out
You're not here to play games — unless you're literally gaming, and in that case, you want it fast, fluid, and full screen. Enter the POCO X7 Pro, the smartphone equivalent of a sports car in a sea of sedans.
Power that Performs
Running on the Flagship Dimensity 8400-Ultra processor, the X7 Pro delivers top-tier performance with the finesse of a ballerina and the aggression of a bulldozer. Apps open before you even realize you tapped them. Videos render smoothly. Games run at ultra-settings like it's a casual Tuesday.
With 12GB RAM and a massive 512GB storage, forget clearing space — download, store, and flex everything. All of it.
📷Camera That Cares About the Details
POCO didn't just throw in a 50MP camera — they gave it OIS (Optical Image Stabilization). That means shaky hands or bumpy rides won't mess up your shots. Your Instagram feed just leveled up.
🔋Battery Built for Real Life
Who has time to look for charging sockets every few hours? Not you. The 6000mAh ultra-large battery ensures you can go a whole day (and maybe even the next) on a single charge. Plus, IP68 dust and water resistance means you can survive Lagos traffic and rainy season alike.
Color Me Bold
The X7 Pro comes in Black, Green, and a bold Yellow. Each one makes a statement. Serious? Go black. Fresh? Try green. Loud and proud? Yellow's your shade.
Price That Shocks (In a Good Way)
All this power, for just ₦589,000. No, that's not a typo.
The POCO C71 – For the Hustlers, Dreamers & Everyday Champions
Maybe you're a student. Maybe you're a content creator on the rise. Maybe you're just tired of your old phone that freezes every time you open TikTok. Whatever your hustle, the POCO C71 is here to make sure you don't miss a beat — or a beat drop.
Bigger Screen, Better Days
The C71 sports a generous 6.88' immersive display. Watch Nollywood films, scroll endlessly, or read without squinting. It's a screen that fits your vibe and your vision.
Smile, You're on 32MP Camera
Capture every laugh, every outfit, every golden hour moment with the 32MP AI dual camera. Plus, smart scene detection makes your shots look professional, even when you're just snapping lunch.
Safety in a Tap (Or a Look)
With Fingerprint and Face Unlock, your phone stays yours. Quick, secure, and no more remembering passwords like "AbujaBabe123!".
Battery That's Got Your Back
Don't let your phone be the reason you miss a call from that job recruiter. The 5200mAh battery, supported by 15W fast charging, keeps you in the loop all day long.
🧠Smart and Steady
The Octa-core processor inside makes sure apps run smooth, videos don't lag, and you don't have to say 'sorry, my phone is hanging again.'
💸Affordable Awesomeness
Choose your level:
3GB + 64GB – ₦94,900
4GB + 128GB – ₦106,900
Yep. Those are the real prices. And yes, you're welcome.
🎨Style That Stands Out
Available in Midnight Black, Sandy Gold, and Ocean Blue, the C71 is sleek, stylish, and way too cool to stay hidden in your pocket.
Where Can You Get Yours?
Glad you asked. You can grab the POCO X7 Pro or POCO C71 at trusted retailers across Nigeria, including:
🛒 Raya
🛒 3C Hub
🛒 Pointek
🛒 Slot
🛒 Jumia
… And more other authorized stores near you.
Two Worlds, One Brand
The POCO X7 Pro is a productivity powerhouse wrapped in flagship design, while the POCO C71 is an affordable all-rounder that doesn't compromise on experience. They're different, yet equally driven by the same POCO promise: high performance, great value, and a whole lot of personality.
So here's the real question:
Are you the power user who never slows down?
Or the rising star who deserves better tech on a tighter budget?
Whatever your answer is, there's a POCO for that.
POCO – Everything You Need. Nothing You Don't.

Gen Z says salary norm should be ‘banned' — but critics say ‘it really is not that difficult'
A fired-up Gen Zer has declared being paid fortnightly in Australia should be straight-up 'banned' because she finds it difficult to manage her salary. Ren Adelina, 21, has amassed over 700,000 views on TikTok by declaring she's unhappy with a fortnightly pay cycle. 'Getting paid fortnightly needs to be genuinely banned,' she said. 'One week I am so rich, I am so rich! The next week … I am living off genuine scraps.' According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, fortnightly is the most common pay cycle for Aussie workers, followed by weekly and then monthly. Speaking to Adelina reiterated her position and said she'd much prefer to be paid more frequently. A fired-up Gen Zer has declared being paid fortnightly in Australia should be straight-up 'banned' because she finds it difficult to manage her salary. 'I think it should be banned because for us Gen Zers we were never taught how to manage money properly,' she said. 'Getting a huge influx of money at once, of course, we are going to get excited and are going to blow it all on food, shopping, outings, etc.' Adelina said the problem with that is that once it is gone, it is gone, and then she's got to hang out for another grueling seven days. 'Then, after we spend it all, there is none left for the next week. Maybe I just have a shopping addiction,' she said. The 21-year-old doesn't just want to ban fortnightly pay with no other solution. She's got plans. 'I believe we should get paid weekly instead as it provides more frequent income, making it easier to manage all expenses. I think it also simplifies budgeting,' she said. Adelina's suggestion of banning fortnightly pay quickly took a turn when people on the internet broke the news to her that some people get paid … monthly. One warned, 'Wait until you get paid monthly.' The 21-year-old replied, 'Stop, that is so scary!' Someone else chimed in and said getting paid monthly is 'criminal' and another demanded to know what professions get paid monthly so they can avoid them. Ren Adelina, 21, has amassed over 700,000 views on TikTok by declaring she's unhappy with a fortnightly pay cycle. The commentator quickly discovered that monthly pay isn't specific to one industry. Everyone, from childcare workers to trade workers, get paid monthly. It is just up to the employer's discretion. The comment section quickly became populated by workers getting paid monthly who argued that fortnightly wasn't so bad in comparison. 'Babe, I'm counting my coins on monthly pay,' one said. 'Monthly is horrendous,' another shared. 'I get paid monthly. You got lucky,' someone claimed. 'Every adult I know gets paid monthly. Budgeting is hard,' another worker shared. 'Fortnightly isn't bad. Wait until you see monthly,' one warned. 'I applaud those who can wait a whole month. I can't even do two weeks,' someone else shared. Quite a few people also suggested to the 21-year-old that it wasn't how frequently she was getting paid but rather how she managed her money. 'Just budget. It really is not that difficult. I love getting paid fortnightly,' one shared. 'Not knowing how to budget should be banned,' another joked. 'I get paid fortnightly, and when you get paid, literally just split it in half and put it aside in another account until the following week,' someone else said.

‘Tone deaf' influencer ripped over mistakenly buying $13K shoes: ‘So many people starving'
A Sydney woman has caused a divide by sharing how she accidentally spent $13,000 on shoes during a cost-of-living crisis. Elle Salagaras, 29, lives in Sydney and runs the popular TikTok account Eastern Suburbs Mum, which has racked up over 2 million likes. While many influencers, particularly mums, build their audience on being relatable, Ms Salagaras instead shares her affluent life with followers. Instead of going with the warts and all social media overshare approach, the 29-year-old is likelier to share content about her Birkin bag. Naturally, she took to social media to share the moment she spent far more than she bargained for at the luxury store Hermes. 3 A Sydney woman has caused a divide by sharing how she accidentally spent $13,000 on shoes during a cost-of-living crisis. TikTok/@elle_easternsuburbsmum Salagaras explained that she decided to purchase a pair of the brand's iconic Chypre Sandals. The starting price for this design is just over $1700, but the cost goes up depending on the material used. The young mum picked up a particularly expensive pair, worth $13,155, made from crocodile and sheep skin. 3 Salagaras explained that she decided to purchase a pair of Hermes' iconic Chypre Sandals. Instagram/@elle_easternsuburbsmum The slides look casual and cosy, not unlike Birkenstocks, but the pair Salagaras purchased cost more than what some people spend on their cars. Salagaras then made a TikTok showing off her new shoes and calling them 'gorg,' but she admitted that she didn't expect to spend that much. After waving the shoes around in front of the camera, she explained that she'd never intended to outlay so much. 3 'We are committing to the shoe. I should have known Hermes,' she said. TikTok/@elle_easternsuburbsmum 'I definitely got very confused about the price, which is my fault. I had heard one number … so embarrassing,' she said. Salagaras said she already had them on her feet when she went to the checkout because she planned to wear them out of the store. When she heard the price, she was thrown, but she just said, 'It's fine,' and bought them anyway. 'We are committing to the shoe. I should have known Hermes,' she said. Salagaras didn't mention how much they cost, but people looked them up and quickly expressed their shock. 'The price. I'm dead,' one wrote. 'The price! Oh my god,' another said. It wasn't just people freaking out over the price, people were also sharing how much they loved the shoes. One praised them as 'so pretty,' and another called them 'stunning,' but others just couldn't get over how much she spent on the sandals. Someone called it 'ridiculous' to spend that much, another called her sharing her expensive shoes 'embarrassing,' and others just claimed the shoes were 'ugly' and certainly not worth the price tag. 'What utter nonsense,' one complained. 'No footwear is worth that amount of money,' someone else argued. 'So many people starving in Australia and she goes and buys these (because) she makes heaps of money from her 52,000 followers. Disgusting,' another complained. Someone else said it was 'tone-deaf' for her to post about spending that much on shoes, and another claimed she was 'showing off,' which they found offensive. Meanwhile, Salagaras wasn't letting the negative feedback get her down. She posted a TikTok of herself dancing with her $13,000 sandals to the tune of Britney Spears.

Video shows crane delivers Jeff Bezos' furniture to penthouse after billionaire closes down 5th Ave
Must be a perk of Prime. A stretch of Fifth Avenue was closed for a massive delivery to Jeff Bezos' sprawling NoMad penthouse, according to a mind-blowing video shared on TikTok. A huge piece of wrapped furniture dangled from a rope as a crane last week slowly hoisted it above the intersection of Fifth Avenue and 26th Street, which was lined with caution tape, barricades, machinery and moving company trucks. 4 Dozens of workers milled about, directing traffic and joining passersby in watching as the item neared the top of 24-story 212 Fifth Ave., where Bezos reportedly owns five apartments spanning the top four floors worth $119 million. Raffi Arslanian, the owner of luxury candle company Thompson Ferrier, caught the commotion on camera Saturday. 'You want to see how Jeff Bezos delivers his furniture? Let me show you,' said Arslanian, whose office is a block away. 'I think we all can relate to this,' he joked. 'Now back to reality, where, when we move, we get a U-Haul and we do it ourselves, or at best, we get a company to do it — but we don't close the street,' Arslanian quipped. His video has garnered more than 970,000 views and thousands of comments, some speculating about what giant object the crane was transporting. 4 4 'It's a hot tub,' said one commenter. A grand piano, suggested another. Others were more interested in how much the operation cost. 4 Large-scale moves using cranes can cost upwards of $20,000 a day, according to reports, and require permits to shut down the streets. 'Amazon prime delivery, billionaire subscription,' one TikToker joked. 'We would all do the same if we had 100 billion dollars,' another remarked. Bezos, worth an estimated $223 billion, according to Forbes, between 2019 and 2021 plucked up one unit after another in the former office tower overlooking Madison Square Park.
