POCO M3 May Launch Soon in India, But not on Jan 13, Country Director Confirms

Last month, POCO Global launched its most affordable offering – POCO M3. Within a week after its Global launch, the POCO M3 Indian variant appeared on Google Play supported devices list. Though the Indian variant has also received TUV certification, POCO has been completely silent regarding the POCO M3 India launch. A recent post on POCO Community suggested that the POCO M3 India debut might happen on 13th January. Now, POCO India Country Director, Anuj Sharma has said that the information isn’t accurate, and the POCO M3 India launch date isn’t yet finalized/public.

Doesn't seem to be right
