When we talk about the POCO brand, we are always enamored with both its smartphone features and its prices. At POCO, they are creating great affordable devices. And we hope this will continue with the upcoming Poco F5 smartphones.

We now know the first details about the POCO F5 thanks to Xiaomiui, including two very interesting features: a 120 Hz refresh rate for the screen and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, which the company had not yet adopted but is very common in today’s high-end devices.

Because the POCO F4 and POCO F3 are essentially identical, many users of the previous model did not consider purchasing the new one. This distinguishes POCO from other brands because they pay attention to customer feedback. Of course, this means that they did not ignore this fact.

However, those significant changes that we mentioned above appear as a result of leaks of this new model. Additionally, a 2K resolution screen will be in use to power the most high-end beasts in addition to a processor and a high refresh rate. Only the POCO F4 Pro has a screen with this resolution as of right now.

Regarding leaks, the POCO F4 is a rebranded version of the Redmi K40, and as a result, the POCO F5 may come as a rebranding of a different model, according to the source. The information from the IMEI Database in this case refers to two smartphones, one from Redmi and the other from POCO. According to the source, it is likely the Redmi K60.

The code name for this product is Mondrian, as is evident from the model number, “M11A.” Additionally, there are claims that it will have an unspecified size screen that can produce 1000 nits of brightness. And has a 2K resolution (1440×3200) and refresh rate of 120 Hz. Additionally, as we mentioned above, there is speculation that the chip will be the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1.

The IMEI Database has revealed the identification number for the following POCO F5 as 23011311AG. Currently, everything seems to point to the POCO F5 release as the Redmi K60 in China. Which is what was seen in the leaks. According to the leak, this phone should be available in the first quarter of 2023. As always, we advise being skeptical of leaks, especially now that we are learning the first information. In the upcoming months, we will see what additional information we have.
