POCO F6 Deadpool Edition discovered in HyperOS codebase, launch soon
POCO is gearing up to introduce its latest smartphone, the POCO F6, in the Indian market. In a surprising turn of events, a "POCO F6 Deadpool Edition" has been identified within the HyperOS codebase. While details about this special edition are currently limited, it's expected to share similar features with the standard POCO F6. Based on circulating rumors, the POCO F6 could make its debut as early as July, with India potentially being its first market.
Redmi Turbo 3 may launch as POCO F6
Xiaomi recently unveiled the Redmi Turbo 3 in its domestic market. The device, powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset, is currently exclusive to China. However, there are strong indications that it may soon be available internationally under the POCO branding. The Redmi Turbo 3 is speculated to be rebranded as the POCO F6 for global markets, a theory supported by emerging evidence.
IMEI database listing hints at global release
The POCO F6 was initially identified in the IMEI database last month with model numbers 24069PC21I and 24069PC21G. These model numbers are believed to represent Indian and global versions of the devices, respectively. Further supporting this theory, references to the Indian model number have now been found within the Redmi Turbo 3 ROM, along with the name POCO F6.
Redmi Turbo 3: Take a look at the specifications
The Redmi Turbo 3 boasts a 6.67-inch OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and a refresh rate of 120Hz. It features a dual rear camera setup (50MP main, 8MP ultrawide) and a front-facing 20MP camera for selfies. The device comes with up to 16GB of RAM and an impressive storage capacity of up to 1TB. It packs a robust 5,000mAh battery offering fast charging at 90W.
POCO F6 expected to get AI-powered features
The Redmi Turbo 3 operates on Android 14 with Xiaomi's HyperOS layered on top, offering Air Gestures for touchless control and various AI features. If the device does indeed arrive in India as POCO F6, similar specifications can be expected. The Redmi Turbo 3 also includes an advanced cooling system to prevent overheating during intensive tasks, a feature likely to be carried over to the POCO F6.
