Poco M2 Pro Receives BIS Certification; Launch Expected in July
Jun. 18, 2020Poco M2 Pro has been in the news ever since it wasfirst spottedon Xiaomi’s official website earlier last month. It was just casually listed on the RF listing page. Now, with Poco India GM C. Manmohanan suggesting the debut of a new Poco phone in the next 20 to 25 days in India, we believe it could very well be the Poco M2 Pro.
None of the aforementioned listings revealed any specs and features of the upcoming Poco smartphone. We only learn that the device willsupport Bluetooth 5.0 and dual-WiFi, which is already known to be a common feature in most modern phones.
The rumor mill suggests that Poco M2 Pro will be another mid-range phone, just like the Poco X2 that launched earlier this year. It holds certain similarities to theRedmi Note 9 Pro, as per the kernel source code (via XDA Developers). This means the Poco M2 Pro could be powered by theSnapdragon 720Gchipset.
Poco’s launch strategy for India is not clear to me. The company was away from the market for a good 1.5 years. It returned with a mid-range phone earlier this year and is now rumored to launch another mid-range phone in the country next month. We will have to wait and see if the flagshipPoco F2 ProandPoco Pop Buds, the company’s first pair of TWS earbuds, also make their India debut in July.
