The much-awaited POCO F2 Pro is with us. The smartphone has just been unveiled by the Chinese firm in an online event today. Just as we predicted, the POCO F2 Pro is a rebadged Redmi K30 Pro. That shouldn’t be a problem because the phone comes with flagship specs and while it may not be the flagship-killer the POCO F1 was, the pricing is fair for a Snapdragon 865-powered 5G phone. 
POCO F2 Pro shares the same design and pretty much similar hardware with the Redmi K30 Pro. But the phone packs the much-acclaimed POCO Launcher 2.0 based on Android 10. This brings features such as Dark Mode, a cool App Drawer and more.
The F2 Pro is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset which brings onboard support for SA/NSA dual-mode 5G connectivity. The processor is paired with 6GB of LPDDR4X RAM on the standard variant and 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM on the higher variant. The device has up to 256GB UFS 3.1 storage.
