The POCO F4 GT, which is a rebranded Redmi K50 Gaming Edition has already been launched in the Europe and UK markets. So going off of that, we can expect that the rest of the POCO F4 series will also be rebranded Redmi K50 series devices.

So far, Redmi has two devices in the K50 series other than the gaming edition. These are the Redmi K50 and the K50 Pro. Both of these devices come with a 2K resolution AMOLED display and powerful stereo dual speakers. The K50 comes powered by the Dimensity 8100 SoC while the K50 Pro houses the Dimensity 9000 chipset.

Both the devices also feature triple-camera setups for photography with the pro model housing a 108-megapixel (OIS) + 8-megapixel ultra-wide + 2-megapixel macro. The K50 replaces the 108-megapixel sensor with a 40-megapixel sensor while the rest of the camera setup remains the same.

The K50 Pro has a 5,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging while the vanilla K50 has a larger 5,500 battery with 67W fast charging. These are likely to be the specifications for the upcoming F series smartphones in the global market. The device can also debut with totally different specifications in the Indian market as the POCO F4 with model number 220212111RI (Indian variant) recently appeared on the IMEI database.

According to the tipster, the POCO F4’s serial production has begun in European and Eurasian regions. This confirms that the global launch is soon. Having said that, the POCO F3 series was first released in the global market. So we can expect the POCO F4 series to launch in the global market initially, and later it is expected to arrive in the Indian market.

Earlier leaks have revealed that the upcoming POCO F4 will be the Redmi K40S rebranded version. The smartphone was recently spotted on certification sites with the model number 22021211RG. The device was seen with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC paired with 8GB of RAM. The phone scored 1028 single-core points and 3391 multi-core points on the Geekbench 5 certification. The phone will boot on Android 12 out of the box, with MIUI 13 on top of it.

The device was spotted with a 4,400mAh battery supporting a 67W fast charging technology. This will be an improvement over the 33W fast charging support on the predecessor device.

The POCO F4 is tipped to come with a 6.3-inch FHD+ AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. It is expected to come with a triple camera system with a 50MP main lens, a 13MP ultra-wide, and a 5MP telemacro sensor. Upfront, it could have a 32MP unit for selfies.

Other than the POCO F4, there will also be the POCO F4 Pro and POCO F4 GT. The former is expected to come with the Dimensity 9000 SoC, while the latter could have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset.
