Poco F7 Pro vs. F7 Ultra
The Poco F series has taken a little shift in positioning this year, this time the Pro getting outdone by an Ultra, instead of having a vanilla model on its other side. That said, the F7 Pro retains all the goodness of the previous generation's Pro - it's just that the F7 Ultra now brings even more to the table.
We'll do a thorough comparison between the two models to try and show you if the Pro is good enough, or now that there's an Ultra, that one is the way to go.

Size comparison
There's not a lot to separate the two models in terms of physical size. Both are built around 6.67-inch displays and have the exact same footprint, with the Ultra being marginally thicker - though we don't think you'd be feeling that in the hand. The Pro is also a tiny bit lighter - again, not really tangibly so.
Both phones have more or less the same build too - glass front and back, aluminum frame. The Pro's display is covered by Gorilla Glass 7i, while the Ultra uses Poco Shield glass - obviously, we can't be certain which one is better, or by how much.
Both devices are IP68-rated for dust and water resistance, though the Ultra should supposedly be good down to 2.5m underwater - it's just 1.5m on the Pro, but we somehow doubt that makes a world of difference in practice.
One difference that's plain to see is the color selection - the Ultra can be had in the classic Poco yellow livery in addition to black, while the Pro gets black, plus silver and blue.
Display comparison
Poco's Pros have had 1440p displays for a couple of generations already and that's also the case on the F7 Pro. Naturally, there's no viable step up for the Ultra and it too has the same 6.67-inch QHD panel.
Both Pocos have essentially the same excellent maximum brightness, 120Hz maximum refresh rate and Dolby Vision support. Two great displays, with little to separate them.
