On Creative Bloq, we know it's not all about the latest and most expensive tech. Affordable alternatives to popular products are essential for getting the job done with a tighter budget. With this in mind, I think I've found a new addition to our best budget camera phones guide, with the POCO X6 Pro.
I've been using this smartphone for a few months now, and I'm seriously impressed with its AI camera features and overall performance. If you aren't familiar with POCO, it is a more affordable sub-brand of Xiaomi, which also owns Redmi. Xiaomi makes excellent top-grade camera phones, like the Xiaomi 14 (which blew our Tech Reviews Editor away with its quality). Erlingur described it as "the greatest phone camera" he'd ever seen.
