The device has been heavily leaked up to this point that shows the POCO F1 will be the cheapest Snapdragon 845-powered smartphone in the country.

Xiaomi POCO F1 India Launch: Live Updates

We’ll be following the live action below as it happens so if you can’t quite catch the live stream above or prefer text updates then be sure to keep an eye on this section as we’ll have the latest news.

Xiaomi POCO F1: Specifications, Features

From various leaks, the specifications of the Xiaomi POCO F1 has been revealed in its entirety. The device will feature a 5.99-inch IPS LCD display with 1080×2246 resolution and a pixel density of 416 pixels per inch. A Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor clocked at up to 2.8 GHz with an Adreno 630 GPU will power the smartphone. The device will also have 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal memory. Since the specs have been gleaned from leaked retail packaging, it could be that more SKU’s exist for the device but just haven’t leaked out yet, so it could be very possible that the device could come in other storage and RAM configuration options.

On the camera front, the POCO F1 is set to feature a dual camera array with a 12-megapixel lens paired with a 5-megapixel lens with an LED flash as well as a 20-megapixel shooter on the front for selfies and video calling. The device will also be capable of capturing 4K Ultra HD video and will have AI-powered features that will enable capabilities like portrait mode and intelligent scene recognition.

As far as connectivity goes, the smartphone will have Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac dual-band, Bluetooth 5.0 Low Energy, GPS with A-GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, USB Type-C, and 4G VoLTE. You’ll also get a large 4,000mAh battery that will power the POCO F1, which is great news for those wanting the device to last a full day of use. The battery will support Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 for fast charging. The smartphone will ship with the Android 8.1 Oreo-based MIUI 9.5 out of the box, but given the recent release of the Android 9 Pie and that Xiaomi is already developing MIUI 10, the company could issue an OTA update for Android 9.0 shortly after the POCO F1’s release.

Xiaomi POCO F1: Price in India, Availability Details

The device will launch as an exclusive on Flipkart that will see the 6GB of RAM version with 128GB of internal storage priced for around Rs. 25,000 in India, which will put it in direct competition with the new Oppo F9 Pro that was recently launched. Other rumors have pegged the price at around Rs. 34,300 so we’ll need to wait for the launch to see what the price ends up being set as. If the price holds up, then the POCO F1 will be the cheapest Snapdragon 845-powered smartphone in the country, making it even cheaper than the Asus Zenfone 5Z and the OnePlus 6. Along with the 6GB RAM and 128GB storage model, Xiaomi may also launch a 64GB storage variant of the POCO F1 that will be slightly cheaper than the 128GB model and make the device even more competitive.
