Earlier this week, POCO confirmed the global launch date for POCO X4 Pro 5G and POCO M4 Pro. Just a few days later, the Indian division of the brand has now revealed when the latter smartphone will be heading to the country.

According to a tweet by the official Twitter handle of POCO India, the POCO M4 Pro will launch in the region on February 28 at 7 PM IST. For those unaware, the global event is also scheduled to take place on the same day, however, it will begin earlier at 8 PM GMT+8 (5:30 PM IST).

Per multiple reports, the upcoming POCO M4 Pro will be a tweaked version of the Redmi Note 11S. It is expected to feature a different rear design and a 64MP triple camera system instead of a 108MP quad-camera setup.

Talking about specs, the handset is said to arrive with a 6.43-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with up to a 90Hz refresh rate. It will be powered by a MediaTek Helio G96 chipset paired with LPDDR4x RAM and UFS 2.1 storage.

It will house a triple camera setup on the rear consisting of a 64MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide unit, and a 2MP macro snapper. There will be a 16MP shooter on the front for selfies and video calls.

But unfortunately, it will boot the outdated Android 11-based MIUI 12.5 operations system. Anyway, it will be backed by a large 5,000mAh battery with support for 33W fast charging.

The only things that are left to learn now are the phone’s design and its price. Perhaps, they may also leak ahead of the official launch on February 28.

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.
