* POCO has finally made the launch date official for its F5 smartphone series.
* The new smartphone series will feature the POCO F5 Pro and POCO F5.
* It looks like in India only the POCO F5 is launching, and not the Pro variant.
POCO’s next smartphone series is going to feature two models, the POCO F5 Pro and POCO F5. The Xiaomi-backed company has been teasing the launch and it has finally confirmed the date. The announcement comes shortly after company confirmed the POCO F5 will launch with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7+ Gen2 processor.
The POCO F5 smartphone will launch in India on May 9th. The global launch will also take place on the same day but it will also include the POCO F5 Pro. According to a Flipkart microsite of the POCO F5, only the POCO F5 has been teased to launch in India and the time is set for 5.30 pm.
As for the global launch event, both phones are confirmed to debut. In India, the POCO F5 is said to start at Rs 28,000 or Rs 29,000 for the base model, as per tipster Yogesh Brar, who’s also tipped the phone’s specs.
The Flipkart teaser also shows the POCO F5 in a white colour, and the design also suggests it is a rebranded Redmi Note 12 Turbo. Additionally, the POCO F5 Pro could be a rebranded version of the Redmi K60. As for the rest of the phone’s specifications, POCO has confirmed that the POCO F5 will come with the Snapdragon 7+ Gen2 SoC, and launch in two variants of 8GB + 256GB and 12GB + 256GB.
Going by this speculation we have some idea on what to expect from the upcoming devices.
