The first phone from Xiaomi ‘s new mid-range Poco sub-brand, the Poco F1, is set to be unveiled on August 22nd in New Delhi. That news comes from the Poco India Twitter account. A leaked image allegedly showing the label from the phone’s retail box revealed that the device will be powered by the Snapdragon 845 Mobile Platform.

It also will be equipped with 6GB of RAM and 64GB of native storage,

Prior to the removal of the listing, it showed that the two cameras on back will weigh in at 15MP and 5MP. If the price on the listing was legit, the phone will sell for the equivalent of $489 USD (after a $73 USD discount) at PC Garage.
