The last POCO C-series smartphone announced by the Xiaomi-owned company is the POCO C3. It launched in October of 2020 which means it is almost a year old. Considering the refresh time between devices, it is a surprise that a successor wasn’t announced sooner.
The POCO C3 was a success in India, selling more than 2 million units in its first 9 months. That isn’t bad for a phone that launched for roughly $100. We want to believe the successor will also have a super affordable price tag.
The C3 launched with very similar specs to the Redmi 9C. The key differences between the two phones are a smaller screen and the lack of a fingerprint scanner on the Redmi 9C. There are speculations that its successor may be similar to a Redmi phone. However, considering there isn’t a Redmi 10C yet, we may see the roles get reversed with POCO launching the phone first and then Redmi relaunching it under its own brand in another market.
