Since Xiaomi’s sub-brand Redmi made the K40 series official in China last week, we’ve heard rumors that one or more of its members will be released to global markets under the Poco brand – an earlier certification in attested.
Now this phone has also been certified by the US FCC and the mystery has been cleared up. The Poco F3 will be the Redmi K40 for global markets. This makes us think that there will also be a Poco F3 Pro, which would either be a Redmi K40 Pro or a rebranded K40 Pro +, but there is no information on that yet.
Redmi K40, soon Poco F3
Back to the Poco F3. This model, like the Redmi K40, is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 870 chipset with 5G support, and it has between 6 and 12 GB of RAM, as well as 128/256 GB of storage that is not expandable. On the back, there’s a triple camera setup with a 48 MP main shooter, 8 MP ultra-wide, and 5 MP macro camera, while for selfies you get a 20 MP shooter. The phone has a 4520mAh battery with 33W fast charging (from zero to full in under an hour).
The screen is a 6.67 inch 1080×2400 120Hz Super AMOLED coated with Gorilla Glass 5, and the K40 runs Android 11 with MIUI 12 on top. Depending on exactly when it launches internationally, the Poco F3 may have MIUI 12.5 from day one.
