The Xiaomi Pocophone F1 was recently listed on a Belarusian website for pre-orders and we got to see the complete list of specifications. This time, it’s a Romanian website that has listed the Pocophone F1 with not only its specifications but also images of the upcoming smartphone. Even the retail box of the phone has been leaked.
The Pocophone F1 looks very similar to the Mi 8 SE. But there are a few discernable differences between the two phones. First off, the front camera is coupled with an LED flash. Secondly, the phone has a curvier design as compared to the Mi 8 SE’s boxy design. And thirdly, the chin is thicker than the one found on the Mi 8 SE. The front of the phone houses nothing but a notched display.

The back of the Pocophone F1 sports a dual camera set up along with the fingerprint scanner. There has been a little shift in design here since the dual cameras sit in the middle of the top half instead of on the side. The Pocophone branding is visible on the bottom half of the back. Judging from the images, the phone will likely have a brushed aluminium back. No glass here, so wireless charging is out of the question. The hybrid sim tray sits on the left side of the frame while the power button and volume rockers sit on the right side of the frame. The 3.5mm headphone jack sits on the top of the phone. The bottom is taken up by the USB Type-C charging port flanked by the speaker and microphone grill.
As far as the specifications are concerned, you can check them out here in an earlier listing by a Belarusian store. As for the pricing, the phone is apparently priced at 2299 RON approximately $573. But after a 300 RON discount, the phone costs 1999 RON or $498. The pricing is for the 64GB model. The 128GB model pricing is not yet known.
