The POCO M4 Pro 5G is the brand’s latest smartphone. The device went official in early November 2021. The handset is originally called Redmi Note 11 5G in China. It also goes by the name of Redmi Note 11T 5G in India. Now, months later, the phone seems to launch in India very soon.

POCO is teasing the launch of a new smartphone in India. At the same time, 91Mobiles has shared a teaser poster showcasing the device.

According to the image, the phone appears to be none other than POCO M4 Pro 5G. However, the publication mentioned that we cannot rule out the possibility of the newly rumored POCO M4 Pro 4G.

According to reports, the 4G variant of POCO M4 Pro will be a rebranded Redmi Note 11S. The latter’s camera module is different than that of the handset shown in the poster attached above.

Hence, we believe the next POCO-branded smartphone launching in India is most likely POCO M4 Pro 5G. However, we cannot rule out the possibility of POCO M4 Pro 4G releasing together.

Anyway, whatever handset or handsets the brand brings to the market, they will be on sale alongside the original versions in India. The Redmi Note 11T 5G has already been released in the country, while the Redmi Note 11S will go official next week.

Which phone do you think POCO will debut in India? Do you think we will only witness the release of only the 5G version of POCO M4 Por or both 5G as well as 4G? Do let us know in the comment section.
