A few hours from now, Poco will launch the Poco F4 5G in India and other international markets. Ahead of that, the new India head of the brand made an announcement regarding the phone’s warranty in the country last night. Let’s check out what he has to say.
Recently, Poco appointed Himanshu Tandon as the new Country Head of India. Last night, the executive tweeted a video talking about the warranty for two smartphones.
He revealed that the upcoming Poco F4 5G will arrive with a 2-year warranty in India. For the unaware, unlike the EU where a 2-year warranty is a norm, companies in India only provide a single-year warranty. This makes the Poco F4 5G an exception.
Additionally, the exec announced that the brand has extended the warranty of the Poco X3 Pro by 6 months. The extended warranty period is applicable to all buyers. The device debuted in March 2021, and therefore, even the units that were bought soon after the launch are still under warranty.
Talking about the Poco F4 5G, the upcoming smartphone is marketed as the successor of the Poco F1 in India. But the F1 was an original handset, whereas the F4 5G is merely a rebranded Redmi K40S with a different primary camera.
Interested readers can watch the Poco F4 5G launch event later today at 5:30 PM IST on YouTube.
