Poco revolutionized the smartphone market in 2018 with the Pocophone F1. The device could be found for less than $350 and offered 2018’s top-of-the-line chipset, the Snapdragon 845 SoC. After a very successful first smartphone, Xiaomi decided to put the sub-brand to sleep and tried to replace it with the Redmi K-series. However, fans of the original Poco smartphones never forgot the brand and its appealing price/specs. At the beginning of 2020, Poco returned with the Poco X2, but it wasn’t what fans of the original F1 were expecting. The true legacy was honored only in September with the debut of the Poco X3 series featuring very compelling specifications.
