Last week, Redmi finally took wraps off the Redmi K50 series in China. The lineup was accompanied by Redmi K40S. It is the most affordable phone announced at the event. The global variant of this smartphone has now made its appearance on Geekbench.

The Redmi K40S launched in China is codenamed ‘Munch’ and it bears the model number 22021211RC. The global version of this handset with model number 22021211RG has been now spotted at Geekbench in less than a week from the release of the original.

This is not the first time we are hearing about the global variant of the Redmi K40S (previously known as Redmi K50). The device has been already certified by other agencies earlier. In fact, there’s also an Indian variant with model number 22021211RI.

Per certifications, the smartphone will release with POCO branding outside mainland China. It is rumored to be called POCO F4. The handset is said to retain the same name for India.

Talking about specifications, it will likely have the same set of features as the Redmi K40S. However, there could be some differences in the rear design.

So we can expect the so-called POCO F4 to arrive with a 6.67-inch FHD+ 120Hz AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC, LPDDR5 RAM, UFS 3.1 storage, 48MP (wide, OIS) + 8MP (ultra-wide) + 2MP (macro) triple camera system, 20MP selfie camera, dual stereo speakers, side-mounted fingerprint sensor, MIUI 13 based on Android 12, 4,500mAh battery, and 67W fast charging.

POCO is yet to officially tease the arrival of the rumored POCO F4.
