Xiaomi’s sub-brand Pocophone launched its first flagship phone in
2018. Since then, the smartphone has been a fan favorite and why
shouldn’t it be? The device offers premium features at an extremely
reasonable price. Hence, the fact that the smartphone generated a ton of
sales is not very surprising.
Since the launch of Poco F1, consumers have been waiting for the
Xiaomi subsidiary to launch a successor. However, Pocophone was silent
about the whole scenario leading analysts to believe that Xiaomi was
going to kill the brand. However, Pocophone’s Global Head Alvin Tse, in a
recent tweet hinted that the company will be launching something in
2020. Even though the tweet was taken down, later on, it was enough to
stir up excitement among the consumers.
Apart from the slight hint, Tse did not share any information
whatsoever. Moreover, the tweet does not exactly hint that the brand
will launch a new phone next year. It just hints that Pocophone will
launch ‘something’ next year. However, considering Xiaomi’s history with
leaks and rumors, we might hear about the upcoming device sooner than
later.
At the time of its launch, the Poco F1 was the cheapest smartphone
featuring Snapdragon 845 which is why it became Flipkart’s most
significant and fastest flagship sale ever (as claimed by the company).
The Poco F1 generated a total revenue of $28 million and approximately
68,965 units were sold in the first five minutes according to GSMArena.
Moreover, since Redmi has entered the upper mid-range and flagship
segment this year and the Redmi K20 series was launched at a price point
similar to Poco F1, we are not really sure how Xiaomi will be pricing
the Poco F2.
