Xiaomi is known for its Mi Community forum. Since its inception, the company has been accepting feedback from users via this platform. This place on the internet is also a one-stop destination for Xiaomi product users worldwide to communicate on various topics. But unfortunately, the Indian version of Mi Community was shuttered last year due to local regulations. Now, almost a year later, Xiaomi’s POCO Community is officially debuting in the country.

Last year, the Indian government started banning a plethora of Chinese applications and services. One of those apps was Mi Community. 

In July 2020, Xiaomi officially announced that it is disabling the app and the website of Mi Community India. Though the company called it ‘temporarily’, the service is yet to be reinstated even after 11 months.

On the bright side, the company’s POCO brand is launching its POCO Community in India after the service’s successful debut in other markets.  But unfortunately, interested people cannot use it right away.

The brand is currently only offering ‘Beta Access’ to the platform. In order to qualify, netizens will have to answer a questionnaire. Most importantly, they only get a single chance since multiple entries are prohibited.

So what are you waiting for? Enroll yourself to join the POCO Community India to hang out with other POCO product users from different parts of the country

A number of phone brands have official forums for their fans where they can come to discuss topics related to their products, upcoming features, and more. Xiaomi has its own which is called Mi Community, so also does OnePlus and realme. Some of these forums also have official apps, to make it easier for fans to access them. It has been announced that POCO will unveil its own community soon.

The announcement was made by a Twitter user, Sazu Hosen, whose bio says he is the global Facebook group moderator for Poco Global. The tweet was liked by the official POCO Global Twitter account, thus affirming that the info is genuine.

Just like other official communities, the POCO Community should not only have a place where fans can discuss matters related to POCO, but there should also be an area where users can download resources for their phones such as ROMs.

The POCO Community should be open to all users across the globe but we expect individual regional platforms such as POCO India’s Telegram group to remain active. Signup is expected to be available soon and an official app should also be in development.

It is no surprise that POCO is trying to establish its own community. At the launch of its latest smartphone, the POCO M3, POCO announced that it is now an independent brand, thus separating from its parent company, Xiaomi.
