Poco F6 Leaks Surface: Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, 50MP Sony Sensor, OLED Display, & More – Check Price, Full Specs

Some crucial new details about the upcoming POCO F6 have emerged. This next flagship device from POCO is rumored to sport the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC, potentially making it the first smartphone globally to do so (apart from the Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro which is limited to China). With its expected launch drawing nearer, let's dive into the rumored specifications and features.

POCO F6: What We Know So Far

A recent report has shed light on what to expect from the POCO F6's camera setup. According to AndroidHeadlines, the device is anticipated to feature a 50MP Sony IMX882 primary camera. This sensor is notably used in other models like the Realme 12 Pro and iQOO Z9 5G, promising impressive photography capabilities. Accompanying the main sensor will be an 8MP Sony IMX355 sensor and an OmniVision OV20B40 camera, suggesting a versatile camera array for users.

The upcoming POCO F6 is anticipated to run on the newly unveiled Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC, identified as SM8635. This positions the device as a formidable player in the smartphone market. The Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 can be considered a "flagship killer" chipset, offering most of the specifications of the top-tier 8 Gen 3 at a more affordable price point.

However, Qualcomm had to make some compromises, such as eliminating 8K video recording capability on the 8s Gen 3. Furthermore, there are rumors suggesting that the POCO F6 might be a rebrand of the Redmi Note 13 Turbo, which is already confirmed to feature the same Snapdragon chipset.

Another highlight is the handset's display technology. Sources indicate that the POCO F6 will utilize OLED panels from Chinese display manufacturers TCLD and Tianma. This move suggests a commitment to providing high-quality visuals.

Launch and Pricing in India

Testing for the POCO F6 has reportedly begun in India, hinting at a launch in the country around May or June, following its global debut. The IMEI database listing with model numbers 24069PC21I and 24069PC21G confirms the presence of Indian and global variants.

Expected features include a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and flat edges. Additionally, there could be support for 120W fast charging, making it a powerhouse in terms of performance and efficiency. While the handset is rumored to be priced under Rs 40,000 in India, POCO might yet surprise us with its competitive pricing strategy. Further details are anticipated as the launch date approaches.

With its advanced chipset, promising camera setup, and high-quality display, the POCO F6 is poised to be a significant release in the smartphone market. As more information becomes available, we will let y'all know.
