Poco M5 review: Budget phone with unique design, but no 5G

If you’re in the market for a budget smartphone — priced between Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000 — the truth is you can’t have it all. If you’re hoping to get 5G connectivity and performance, the number of options are limited– well at least for now. This could change in the coming months given that 5G connectivity has started rolling out. But for now, companies still continue to offer 4G phones in the segment. Poco M5 is one such phone, which starts at Rs 12,499 and tries to offer performance and an interesting design. But it has no 5G connectivity. So does it still make sense to buy this phone? Here’s our review.
