Last year, POCO India brought many budget devices to India, sold them well, and continued it with the POCO M3 recently. After sharing the device’s initial sales data, the company is back with more details.

In a tweet, POCO India has confirmed that the POCO M3 has sold over 500,000 units in India. The company also said that the device achieved this in just 45 days from the first sale. Earlier, the first sale had clocked around 150,000+ units which is a substantial number considering the device is limited exclusively to Flipkart.

POCO India became the third-largest online smartphone brand in the country towards the end of last year. Thanks to devices like the POCO C3, POCO M2, POCO X3, the company has managed to outsell the expectations every time.

Going forward, with the resurrection of the flagship killer in the form of POCO X3 Pro, it can very well break all the previous sale records in the near future. The company has a new ‘Made of Mad’ mascot to take on the rivals and is probably looking to expand its portfolio further.

5⃣0⃣0⃣0⃣0⃣0⃣+ #POCOM3 sold = 4⃣5⃣ days
1⃣1⃣1⃣1⃣1⃣+ phones = 1⃣ day
~4⃣6⃣3⃣ phones = 1⃣ hour
~8⃣ phones = 1⃣ minute

Another 8⃣ #POCO members have been added already to the fam by the time you read the tweet.

POCO India is a bit unique from the Global division. Recently, the company announced a new ‘Made Of Mad’ mascot. Also, it has not only brought more budget-smartphones to India but has managed to sell out more units in a short span of time. The latest to join the list is POCO M3 with its sale numbers on Flipkart.

POCO in a press note said that it has already sold over 250,000 units of POCO M3 in under two weeks(10 days to be precise) of online sales in India. If you recall, the company announced the budget smartphone in the country on Feb. 2. However, it went on sale for the first time only a week later.

This also comes after the company’s official announcement about selling 150,000+ units on the First sale that happened on Feb. 9. POCO also says that it has raked over 30 lakh POCO Fans and customer response on Flipkart.

In case you don’t know, POCO has been selling its devices(incl. POCO M3) online exclusively via the e-commerce platform Flipkart. Considering this a single channel, we can only imagine the numbers going up if it were more.

POCO M3 launched with specs like 6.53-inch FHD+ display, Snapdragon 662 chipset, 6,000mAh battery, and Leather-finish rear panel starts at ₹10,999($151.87). Although the price compared to the other regions is a bit steep, it’s definitely a good value compared to rivals in India.

That said, if you are someone who failed to grab yourself a POCO M3 fear not as the next sale is Tomorrow i.e., February 23 at 12 PM IST(UTC+ 05:30). It comes in Yellow, Cool Blue, and Power Black color variants and has 6GB RAM, 64/128GB storage options.

POCO M3 is a smartphone that is slowly crawling its way up to the other markets from Europe. Recently, the company launched it in Indonesia and Taiwan too. Finally, POCO has teased the arrival of the smartphone in India.

POCO India has posted a new YouTube video with the Title ” Watch at your own risk | #POCOM3″. The video begins with a guy dressed like a PUBG character asking opinions about the new device’s performance to a bunch of youngsters.

All of them are spotted playing a Battle Royale Game. In the video, the respondents quote words like “KILLER, OVER PERFORMER”, etc and we also get a glimpse of its gaming performance. Also, the presenter straight-up shows and confirms that all the color variants– Black, Blue, and Yellow will make it to India.

Although the video ends with a “COMING SOON” tag, rumors say that it could be very soon in February(maybe Feb. 2 or 4). If we recall, this Feb.4 is the same date when POCO India launched its first smartphone last year after becoming independent from Xiaomi. Anyway, this is just our guess and let’s wait for the final confirmation from the POCO team.
