Xiaomi’s POCOPHONE F1 made a big splash this year when it launched. The phone packs flagship specs and matches it with a mid-range price tag. Tomorrow, Xiaomi India will announce a new POCOPHONE just four months after the first one launched.

A tweet posted by the country’s general manager, C. Manmohan, revealed that a new Pocophone is coming. The official POCO India Twitter account tweeted later that the new POCOPHONE will launch tomorrow.

Last week's been crazy! #POCOF1 has won awards & appreciation one after the other and #Christmas seems to have come early! @MKBHD @TheMrPhone @91mobiles @AndroidAuth

But, that's not all.
I have a surprise for all of you. A #NewPOCO is coming. Can you guess when?

It is not yet confirmed if tomorrow’s launch is for the POCOPHONE F2 but going by the lack of fanfare, it doesn’t seem like it. One rumor that seems to be gaining ground says the launch is for kevlar versions for the 6GB + 64GB and 6GB + 128GB versions.

Another exclusive leak by me and @mysmartprice! POCO/ Pocophone F1 6GB+64GB & 6GB+128GB Storage variants will soon be available in Kevlar Back (which was earlier exclusive to 8GB variant). European markets will receive these first and Indian launch will be soon as well. pic.twitter.com/f8wtsT1agu

The news of a Kevlar version for these models first surfaced about three weeks ago via a leak by Ishan Agarwal. The kevlar version is exclusive to the 8GB RAM + 256GB version and is sold as the POCO F1 Armored Edition. Now it seems Xiaomi is bringing the stronger back cover to the 64GB and 128GB models.

This is all still speculation but seeing as there isn’t a teaser poster and there is practically no hype for the launch tomorrow, it is likely not a POCOPHONE F2.
