Poco has officially shared the global launch date for its new Poco F9 series. The phone that has been leaking for months will now launch globally on September 1.
The lineup reportedly includes two models: the Poco F9 Pro and the Poco F9 Ultra. Like its predecessor, the company is not releasing a standard model this time either.
The two phones are rebranded versions of the Redmi K100 Pro and Redmi K100 Pro Max, which already launched in China. Both are expected to use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, including the gaming-focused V-series variant that debuted on the Chinese models.
Luckily for us, a previous report has already revealed the specs of both phones along with the price.
