A previous report revealed that the upcoming Poco F6 has the “period” codename. It also revealed that “N61” is the internal model number of the device. The new report, citing the Mi code as the source, claims that the device will feature the Sony IMX882 50-megapixel primary camera. For those who don’t know, the same camera is also available on phones like the Realme 12 Pro 5G and the iQOO Z9 5G.

The report further states that the Sony IMX355 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens and an OmniVision OV20B40 camera, likely for macro shots, will accompany the main snapper. The device might feature a dual-camera system, potentially excluding the macro lens from the final product. Therefore, it is advisable to approach the leak cautiously.

The report further reveals that the Poco F6 has the SM8635, which is nothing but the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3. For those who don’t know, the same device is expected to launch in the Chinese market with the Redmi Note 13 Turbo branding. The F6 is said to use OLED panels from Chinese display markets, such as TCLD and Tianma. As far as the launch is concerned, it is expected to launch in April or May this year.
