And here we have another new Xiaomi smartphone ready to take on the high-end models. The new Pocophone F1 by Xiaomi or also known as, Poco, has been presented a few minutes ago by the Chinese company.
It seems that they have no brake in Xiaomi and after a time in which the company seemed to want to present another device to the market but had not quite decided when, now this Poco F1 arrives. The best thing about the new terminal is that they have focused on performance and adjusting the price, so we have a device that would endure with a mid-range price and that has high-end specifications, a very good smartphone that seems it could soon be officially available in our country.

It is true that a few days ago some details of this new device leaked on the network, now we have it presented and its specifications are really interesting, among which the processor stands out. Snapdragon 845 with a liquid-cooled Adreno 630, a screen of 6.18 inches Full HD + with the famous notch and a 4000 mAh battery. But we have more data and they are the following:
- Two models available, one with 6 and the other with 8 GB of RAM
- Double 12 MP camera (the one in the Mi 8) + a 5 MP Samsung
- 20 MP sensor for selfies up front
- Fingerprint sensor on the rear
- Three colors available: red, black and blue
- Android 8.1 with a specific launcher for Poco F1
In this case the model has a elegant design and is made of plastic from the back, it will be necessary to see the quality of that plastic and how it behaves in the hand. There is a differential version called Armored, and this one is totally kevlar.
Poco F1 price and availability
Obviously all this with a price in the purest Xiaomi style and is that the model that adds 6 + 64 GB stays at about 260 euros to change and the most expensive model could be had for about 100 euros more. For now, marketing is limited, but the announcement on their official twitter account in which they tell us that will present the new smartphone on August 27 in Paris, makes us think that it will soon be available in Spain. What do you think of this Pocophone F1? The name is really ridiculous, but the price if it is sold in Europe for about 350 euros could be a real bomb ...
