It's only a couple of weeks since Poco first teased that a) the brand was still alive and b) that it was launching a device today, and here we are with the Poco X2, the long-awaited successor to the Pocofone F1. Having been spun off from Xiaomi as its own brand, Poco has dug around in the parts bin and come up with the X2, a smartphone that this time doesn't sport the newest most powerful processor, and who takes more than a little inspiration from its Redmi K30 cousin.
Toting a 120Hz LCD display, a big 4,500mAh battery, quadruple rear cameras, and powered by the Snapdragon 730G chipset, the Poco X2 costs around $225 in India. Join us below for the full specifications.
