POCO F6 Pro Receives NBTC Certification, Hinting at Imminent Launch; Possible Redmi K70 Rebranding
Poco introduced the Poco F5 Pro last May, indicating that its successor may be on the horizon. While Poco has yet to officially announce the F6 Pro, indications suggest that the Chinese brand is preparing for its imminent launch, as evidenced by the NBTC certification obtained by the Poco F6 Pro.
Although the Thai certifying authority has not disclosed the specifications of the Poco F6 Pro, it has confirmed its model designation as 23113RKC6G. This designation implies that it might be a rebranded version of the China-exclusive Redmi K70 tailored for global markets, given that the Redmi K70's model code is 23113RKC6C.
If indeed the Poco F6 Pro is a rebranded version of the Redmi K70, it is likely to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, up to 16GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage. Its display, sized at 6.67 inches, would boast a 120Hz 1440p OLED panel with a peak brightness of 4,000 nits and support for Dolby Vision. Additionally, it would include a fingerprint reader beneath the display and a centrally positioned punch-hole housing a 16MP selfie camera.
The smartphone is anticipated to be equipped with a 5,000 mAh battery supporting 120W wired charging and a triple rear camera setup comprising a 50MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultrawide lens, and a 2MP macro lens.
