Software
The device operates on Xiaomi’s HyperOS 2.07.0, a tailored edition of Android 15.0. This operating system significantly enhances performance, graphics, connectivity, and gaming audio. While Xiaomi has loaded the OS with pre-installed applications and games, the silver lining is that most of them can be uninstalled. However, you’ll find that the integrated GetApps mini app store cannot be removed, as it’s a fundamental component of the OS.
Among the pre-installed apps are popular platforms such as Netflix, TikTok, Booking, LinkedIn, Spotify, Facebook, and WPS Office, along with around eight+ arcade style games that can also be uninstalled if needed.

Who much storage space is available?

IR Blaster is also included
Similar to the Snapdragon-powered devices from Qualcomm, the Poco X7 Pro based on MediaTek hardware has got something cool – an IR blaster. It’s a nifty little feature that lets your phone control other devices using infrared signals. So basically, you can use your phone to operate your TV, air conditioner, and other appliances that work with infrared.
It comes in handy, especially when you accidentally break your remote and need a quick way to operate your home stuff. The IR remote app supports a wide range of popular chinese brands, including Samsung, Xiaomi, and many more.
