In January this year, Xiaomi‘s independent POCO brand announced that it had sold one million units of the POCO C3 smartphone in India since it was launched. The POCO C3 was first announced in India in October 2020 which means it took just 3 months to hit the one million mark. Nine months down the line, POCO has again announced that it had sold over 2 million units of the budget C3.POCO C3

The POCO C3 is a budget smartphone and despite the fact that sales have obviously slowed down since January when one million units were sold, this still is an impressive feat. Moreso, considering that POCO has released other models since after the launch.

As a reminder, the POCO C3 has a large immersive 6.53-inch HD+ LCD display with a water-drop notch and HD+ resolution. The phone is equipped with up to 4 GB of RAM and it houses a 5,000mAh battery. The phone offers “blazing-fast performance” with the MediaTek Helio G35 SoC at the helm.

 

The rear side of the POCO C3 has a dual-tone design. It has a square-shaped camera housing. The camera module has a 13-megapixel main camera, a 2-megapixel macro lens, a 2-megapixel depth sensor, as well as an LED flash. For selfies, there is a 5-megapixel camera housed on the waterdrop notch. Another impressive feature is the Splash-proof P2i coating that is rare to find on smartphones within the C3’s price point.

The POCO C3, which is available in Arctic Blue, Lime Green, and Matte Black colors, is presently priced at Rs. 7499 (~$101) on Flipkart for the base 3GB+32GB version. The price could come further down to Rs. 6799 (~$92) during the Big Savings day sale.
