POCO has officially introduced the POCO C85, a new entry-level smartphone that blends reliability, stylish design, and powerful everyday performance. Staying true to the POCO C Series spirit, the C85 is designed to empower users with technology that makes daily communication, self-expression, and entertainment both enjoyable and accessible.
Modern Design with Everyday Comfort
Drawing inspiration from the natural beauty of the aurora, the POCO C85’s segmented back design reflects subtle shifts of light, adding flair to every interaction. Its 3D quad-curved body makes it slim and comfortable to hold despite housing a massive battery, while the floating volcanic deco pattern with a glossy glass finish adds a premium touch.
At the front, the C85 features a 6.9-inch HD+ display with a 120Hz AdaptiveSync refresh rate, automatically switching between 60Hz, 90Hz, and 120Hz depending on usage. Certified by TÜV Rheinland for low blue light, flicker-free, and circadian-friendly performance, the screen is built for long hours of comfortable viewing. POCO’s Wet Touch Technology 2.0 also ensures responsive touch control—even with wet fingers.
Power That Lasts and Powers Others
The C85’s 6000mAh high-density battery is designed for long-term reliability, retaining 80% capacity after 1,000 charge cycles. Users can enjoy up to 22 hours of video playback, 82 hours of music, or 20 hours of reading on a single charge. With 33W fast charging, the battery reaches 50% in just 31 minutes, while 10W reverse charging allows the device to double as a power bank for other gadgets.
Reliable Performance, Everyday Entertainment
Under the hood, the MediaTek Helio G81-Ultra powers smooth performance, supported by up to 16GB RAM (with memory extension) and 1TB expandable storage. This combination ensures seamless multitasking, gaming, and streaming without worry about space or speed.
Running on Xiaomi HyperOS 26, the POCO C85 integrates smart features such as Circle to Search with Google, Google Gemini, and Xiaomi Interconnectivity (including call sync and shared clipboard).
For photography, the C85 is equipped with a 50MP main camera for sharp, detailed shots and an 8MP selfie camera with beauty mode for fun, vibrant portraits.
Other user-friendly features include a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, 3.5mm headphone jack, 200% volume boost speakers, and an IP64 rating for dust and splash resistance.
