Poco F2 Might Finally Launch in 2021 as a Mid-range Smartphone!

POCO, a sub-brand of Xiaomi launched its first smartphone named POCO F1 back in August 2018. It was the most affordable phone with a flagship chipset back then. Compromises were made in other areas like the camera and build to keep the cost down.

After a successful start, POCO remained inactive before Xiaomi set it up as an independent brand early last year. They have launched numerous smartphones such as Poco X3, Poco M2, and Poco C3. After the official arrival of POCO in November 2020, all of these devices are available in Nepal as well.

Most of these smartphones are mid-range smartphones and POCO is yet to launch the POCO F2. However, it looks like the POCO F2 will launch soon.

POCO uploaded a teaser video that runs down its history and has managed to sneak in the name “F2”. The tweet says “The stage is set! The fun has begun! Let us get ready to take it to the next level!”.

The stage is set! The fun has begun! Let us get ready to take it to the next level!
