Price difference
At the 91mobiles snapshot, the OnePlus cost ₹14,000 more than the POCO, about 58% above the POCO’s price. The listings may not be the same memory and storage configuration, and 91mobiles does not make that clear. A like-for-like comparison matters here, because the POCO is sold in 8GB and 12GB RAM tiers and in 256GB and 512GB storage tiers.
Before comparing, check these on each listing:
- RAM and storage variant
- Seller and warranty
- Bank or exchange offers, which can change the effective price
- Stock status
Performance
The POCO’s Dimensity 8400-Ultra is a clear, documented performance part, and the phone pairs it with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage. 91mobiles’ comparison reports the POCO ahead in Geekbench multi-core and with a higher AnTuTu score. These are the publisher’s figures, not results from our own testing, and they can change as the page is updated. The pages we reviewed do not state the Nord CE6’s chipset, so its performance gap cannot be quantified here.

For heavy gaming and sustained workloads, the POCO is the safer pick on this evidence. For everyday use, a benchmark lead is unlikely to be noticeable on its own.

Display
The OnePlus has the edge on paper. It has a 6.78-inch AMOLED panel at 144Hz, against the POCO’s 6.67-inch panel at up to 120Hz. Both are 1.5K, and the resolutions are close: 2772 × 1272 against 2712 × 1220. The difference you would notice is the extra refresh headroom and slightly larger size. Whether 144Hz matters depends on your games and apps, since many titles do not run that high.

Battery and charging
The OnePlus lists 8000mAh against the POCO’s 6000mAh typical capacity. That is a third more capacity, although the two phones have different processors and screens that affect drain. The POCO charges faster on paper (90W against 80W), but the OnePlus’s larger cell means more to refill.
OnePlus also publishes Test Lab claims on its product page, including more than 2.5 days of use and 10 hours of BGMI gaming. OnePlus says these were measured in controlled conditions and that real battery life varies with network, apps, settings, device age and usage. Treat them as manufacturer results. 91mobiles also reports battery-life figures in its comparison, but its test method is not clear, so do not read them as guaranteed real-world endurance.

Charger contents differ by region. Xiaomi’s global page lists an in-box charger but notes that package contents vary, so confirm what ships in India.
Do these 3 things before closing this tab:
1Repair Windows errors before they cause bigger problems2Fix the driver behind crashes, sound loss and screen glitches3Clear out junk files and repair common Windows errorsCameras
- Rear: Both have a 50MP main camera with optical stabilisation, and OnePlus specifies dual-axis OIS. The POCO adds an 8MP ultrawide. The OnePlus page we reviewed does not state a second rear camera in the material we examined, so check the listing if ultrawide shots matter to you.
- Front: The OnePlus has a 32MP autofocus selfie camera, against the POCO’s 20MP. Higher resolution does not guarantee better selfies, but autofocus helps for group shots and close-ups.
We have no independent camera test of either phone, so image quality is not ranked here.

Software
The POCO runs HyperOS 2 and the OnePlus runs OxygenOS 16, so the OnePlus ships on a newer Android-based software generation. The sources we reviewed do not state update commitments for either phone, so check each manufacturer’s policy before you buy if long-term support is a priority.
Which should you buy?
Choose the POCO X7 Pro if
- You want the strongest documented processing and storage hardware for the money.
- Gaming and multitasking matter more than screen extras.
- You want an ultrawide camera and the faster 90W charging.
- The ₹14,000 saved is worth more to you than the OnePlus’s extras.
Choose the OnePlus Nord CE6 5G if
- Battery endurance is your top priority and you want the 8000mAh cell.
- You want a larger, 144Hz AMOLED display.
- You take many selfies or video calls and want the 32MP autofocus front camera.
- You prefer OxygenOS and its newer launch version.
The price gap is large, and on the specs reviewed the OnePlus’s advantages are mostly battery, screen and selfie camera, not raw speed. If those three matter to you, pay for the OnePlus. If they do not, the POCO is the better value. The verdict could change if street prices narrow, so compare equivalent variants on the day you buy.
