Poco F2 Pro will be the second global smartphone from the former sub-brand of Xiaomi. It launched Pocophone F1 as a global offering back in 2018. Earlier this year, the company launched Poco X2, a rebranded Redmi K30 4G, for the Indian market. The smartphone is also expected to be another rebranded device from the company.

The leaks so far hint at Poco F2 Pro being a rebranded Redmi K30 Pro 5G for the global market. The official renderings posted by noted tipster Ishan Agarwal further confirms the design of this device. He claims the smartphone will launch in four colors including blue, purple, white and dark color options likely to be called grey. The smartphone is tipped to launch with two storage options of 128GB and 256GB. A report this month revealed pricing of these devices citing sources familiar with the matter.

According to the report, the Poco F2 Pro will be available starting at €570 (around Rs 46,900) when it becomes official. In China, the Redmi K30 Pro starts at RMB 2,999 (around Rs 32,150), which makes Poco F2 Pro expensive. There is a possibility that Poco is looking at the tag of premium smartphone brand in the European market. We will know more about this device in a matter of a few hours but here is everything we already know.

As a rebranded Redmi K30 Pro, the Poco F2 Pro will sport a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with 60Hz or 90Hz refresh rate. There is a 20-megapixel pop-up selfie camera and quad camera setup on the back. The main camera is expected to be a 64-megapixel shooter paired with a 13-megapixel ultra wide-angle lens, a 5-megapixel macro lens and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. It will run MIUI 11 based on Android 10 and pack a 4,700mAh battery with 33W fast charging support.
