The rebranded version of Redmi K30 is launched and here in India, they called it POCO X2. POCO X2 has everything which is present on Redmi K30 expect NFC support, yes POCO India removed the NFC chip from the device. The POCO F2 starts at Rs 15,999 Rs 17,499 for 6 GB and 64 GB storage variants. So yes, technically, POCO is back but I think we gonna see lots of rebranded versions in India with Independent POCO brand.
POCO has launched three variants in India, and POCO X2 will be sold via Flipkart India website and if in case you want to buy this device then it will go for sale on 11th February 2020 at noon.

POCO X2 Specification
Under the hood, the POCO X2 has Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G which is built on 8nm technology, so you won’t get any problem which playing games because this 730G is built for gaming. By the way, we have seen Snapdragon 730G in RealMe X2 and it’s performing really well, so I think POCO X2 will do the same too. POCO X2 runs on MIUI 11 with POCO launcher, so no new OS for Independent brand…
Coming to the camera department, it has an all-new 64MP Sony IMX686 sensor with F/1.89 aperture, an 8MP ultra-wide lens and a 2MP depth sensor that is present on the rear side. On the front side, POCO went with pile shape notch which has 20 MP + 2 MP selfie shooter.
The phone packed with 4,500 mAh non-removable battery with 27W fast charging support while it has 6.67 inches Full HD+ display with 120Hz display but it doesn’t have AMOLED panel, need to work with an LCD panel.
Opinion
I think at Rs 15,999 Rs 17,499 POCO is offering a great deal. I mean you are getting, 120Hz display, 27W fast charging, Android 10 out of the box, Snapdragon 730G chipset and much more. So yes, if you want to buy a new phone under 20k then you can take a look at this device and I know Realme is also offering almost the same thing at 16k, now it depends on you which one you want to buy.
Do let me know which one would you pick, RealMe X2 or POCO X2.
