POCO C65 - Camera Performance Review

Hello and Greetings to All Beloved POCO Lovers,

POCO C65 is the first POCO C Series smartphone that featuring 50MP main camera with macro camera in the global market. Besides that, POCO had brought the 10 filmCamera filters in POCO C65 where you can take vintage and authentic shots. Not only that, POCO C65 also levels up on the selfie and portrait photography with the 8MP front camera. Today, I would like to share the photos and videos that I took with POCO C65 that features 50MP AI Triple Camera. Before we begin, let’s have a quick look at the camera setup and available camera modes in POCO C65.

Compared to the previous generation, you can apply one of the 10 Film Camera filters from POCO F5 Series and the exclusive POCO C65 Film Frame watermark that are available in the Camera application before you take photos. Besides that, POCO C65 is the first POCO smartphone that includes soft ring light when you’re taking a selfie in a dark and dim environment. The following screenshot displays how’s the soft ring light working in POCO C65.

In my opinion, POCO C65 did a great job taking nice photos during the day and night, even under the low light conditions. It is a pity that there is no Pro mode in the camera application and Video Editor and Clip feature in the Gallery Editor application like the previous generation did, but the camera and gallery features that are available in POCO C65 are more than enough for the daily uses for its price range.
