Earlier today (18th May 2020), the General Manager of POCO India, C Manmohan, shared a poll on his official Twitter handle. The poll was for the name of the company’s upcoming truly wireless earbuds and offered four options in total.
Hey POCO fans, couple of weeks ago we asked you which product we should bring next and you chose TWS (Earbuds). We're happy to announce that we're a step closer in making it a reality & we want your help in choosing a name for it. Vote and let's know what we should call it.

In the tweet, the senior official revealed that POCO India is gearing up for the launch of new TWS earbuds soon in the market and offered the fans a method to be more included in the process. The company is apparently crowdsourcing the name of the upcoming Bluetooth earbuds and the options are POCO Move Buds, POCO Klip Buds, POCO Pop Buds, and, lastly, the POCO Funkz.

These options clearly hint at the TWS nature of the upcoming earbuds and those interested in the poll can definitely participate in the naming of the device. The poll is currently live and will take in entries till the next 22 hours, or about 10 am (IST). Interestingly, a few users noted that an option to call it just the POCO Buds would also be appreciated. However, it is unknown if outside entries are also being considered.
The move from POCO signifies a new shift for smartphone OEMs that in recent years have been moving to include more products in their electronic ecosystem. This is something Apple has been doing for years and, now, more vendors are taking up the same philosophy. Unfortunately, we don’t really know a lot regarding the company’s upcoming TWS earbuds, so stay tuned for more details that should arrive soon.
