The POCO F1 is amongst the most talked about phones all around the world at the moment. The phone it seems has not been launched in Pakistan however it has been launched in India. It costs only costs around $300. That made this phone an instant hit in the Indian market. When taking into consideration the specs of the phone, that particular price tag seems like little to nothing especially when you compare it with other flagship phones from around the world. Not to say that the POCO F1 is necessarily a flagship phone, however, the specs would certainly seem to suggest that it would be of similar capabilities.
The phone is certainly impressive with its features like Snapdragon 845 and 6 GB of RAM, coming along with 64GB of internal storage, in the standard model of the phone.
While the phone is launched in India, it will be making its way to 30 European markets over the course of the Year, and while the phone is heading towards the Americas, it will be available notably only in the Mexican, the Chilean, the Colombian and the Uruguayan market. Most notably the phone will not be actually released in China, it’s home country. So this gives the best of proofs that the POCO branding is targeted for a rather global audience, rather than a national one.

The POCO F1 will be available in three variants, the base model will have 6 GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage, another variant will have 6 GB of RAM and 128gb of storage while the higher and model would come along with 8 GB of RAM and a huge 256 GB of storage. Another interesting part about the phone is that there would be an Armored edition that will have a have a Kevlar back.
It is not clear what the price of the phone will be when it is released in Pakistan, but considering the fact that it is actually available in India and for $300 then we can estimate that the price would be of great similarity here in Pakistan as well. However all is speculation thus far, and we will know better as time progresses.
