Xiaomi's Poco launched the Poco M6 Pro 5G last August in India with the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 SoC, 90Hz LCD screen, 50MP dual camera setup, and a 5,000 mAh battery with 18W charging. Today, the brand announced a 4G-version of the phone that will be available globally.
For starters, the global Poco M6 Pro is
powered by the Helio G99-Ultra SoC, which means it's limited to LTE
connectivity. It boots Android 13-based MIUI 14 (will get HyperOS later), and
has up to 12GB RAM and 512GB of expandable storage onboard. The smartphone is
built around a 6.67" 120Hz FullHD+ AMOLED screen, protected by Gorilla
Glass 5. The display also has a fingerprint scanner underneath and a centered
punch-hole for the 16MP selfie camera.
Around the back, you get a triple camera
setup comprising 64MP primary, 8MP ultrawide, and 2MP macro units. The main
camera has OIS and and comes with a feature called Film Camera, having 12 film
filters and eight film frames "for greater creative options and the
sharing of memorable visuals on social media."
The rest of the international Poco M6
Pro's highlights include a 5,000 mAh battery with 67W charging support (0-100%
in 44 minutes), USB-C, and IP54 rating. The smartphone also has dual speakers,
a 3.5mm headphone jack, an IR blaster, and an NFC chip. The global Poco M6 Pro
will be offered in black, blue, and purple colors with two memory options -
8GB/256GB and 12GB/512GB, priced at US$ 199 and US$ 249, respectively. Both will go
on sale starting January 11 through leading e-commerce channels with an early
bird discount of US$ 20.
