'Sleek design to long battery': Poco C50 to launch in India by November-end

Poco on Friday announced that the C50, a low-cost smartphone, will debut in India in the final week of November. The phone in issue would be a "budget disrupter," according to the Xiaomi spin-off company, which is withholding any other information on specifications, features, or design for the time being. A successor to the Poco C31, which debuted in India in 2021, will be the Poco C50.

It is highly anticipated that the Poco C31 will be a 4G phone based on the naming convention and the pricing range that these phones target. Poco says the C31 will “deliver stellar camera performance, immersive multimedia experience, long battery life with a sleek design and much more.”

At a starting price of Rs 8,499, the Poco C31 has a 720p display, a Helio G35 processor, and a 5,000mAh battery. One would anticipate that the Poco C50 would cost around the same.

The Poco M5 was Poco's most recent introduction in India. The phone has an eye-catching, textured back that looks like leather. You receive a 6.58-inch LCD screen with a 90Hz refresh rate and 1080p resolution (240Hz touch sampling). Corning Gorilla Glass 3 offers security.

The Poco M5's internal hardware includes a Helio G99 CPU, up to 6GB of LPDDR4X RAM, and up to 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage. The MIUI 13 (for Poco) operating system is based on Android 12.
