According to the IDC Worldwide Quarterly Mobile Phone Track that was released in May 2021. The report added that the Chinese smartphone maker saw an “immensely” positive reception for its product portfolio in the region. Its various offerings that have offered stellar performance have enabled it to become the fastest growing smartphone brand. Back in November 2020, the company had ranked third in the online smartphone brand category. This had it overtake the likes of Realme and OnePlus in a short span of just 10 months.

Now, the brand has achieved another milestone. Just last year, the POCO X2 had been the best selling smartphone on Flipkart, a local e-retailer giant, under the price segment of 15,000 to 20,000 INR in March. Similarly, its successor the POCO X3 was also featured as one of the best smartphones under the sub 20K category. This model sold around 500,000 units in just 45 days of its launch in India. Furthermore, the brand soon launched the high end POCO X3 Pro that targeted users that wished for more performance.
