POCO X2

The Poco F1 was one of the most popular phones to launch in India because the company hit the nail on the head in terms of value for money. The phone was much sought after and had rave reviews many months after it first went on sale. The sub-brand of Xiaomi has now been separated from the mothership to become an independent company and the masses were eagerly awaiting news regarding a new device. It seems the wait has come to an end, as POCO has finally revealed the Poco X2. The phone is powered by Qualcomm’s recently launched Snapdragon 730G. The phone packs 6GB of RAM and 64GB of storage space. The phone features a 6.67-inch IPS LCD display that offers a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels and has a refresh rate of 120Hz. As for camera specs, you get a quad-cam setup on the back in a 64MP + 8MP + 2MP + 2MP configuration of sensors. You can also shoot selfies on the 20MP + 2MP front camera as well. You can get a battery life of a day easily, thanks to the 4500mAh cell inside the Poco X2, which also supports 27W fast charging. Some of the popular Xiaomi mobiles include the POCO X3 NFC, POCO M2, POCO M3, and the Poco F2.
