Excitement is building for Poco fans. The Poco F7 appears to be approaching reality faster than anticipated. Leaks and whispers have circulated. Now, a concrete sign of progress emerges: certification.
First Stop: EEC Approval
The global variant of the Poco F7, model number 25053PC47G, has passed EEC certification. EEC certification is a vital step for any phone release. It is an official approval necessary before market entry. This certification strongly suggests an upcoming launch. Certification typically occurs weeks or a couple of months before release. A Q2 launch is increasingly likely.
Poco F7: A Redmi Rebrand in Disguise?
Rumored specifications add intrigue. Speculation suggests the Poco F7 will be a rebadged Redmi phone, possibly the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro. Poco frequently reworks Redmi devices for different markets.
If rumors hold true, the Poco F7 may feature impressive hardware:
- Display: A vivid 1.5K OLED LTPS flat panel for an immersive visual experience.
- Processor: The Snapdragon 8s Elite chipset for high-end performance.
- Battery: A potentially large battery, speculated to be around 6,000mAh with 90W fast charging, although some rumors suggest a larger 7,500mAh capacity was initially considered.
These details remain unconfirmed. Official information is currently limited and subject to change. However, EEC certification and spec rumors create a promising picture of an exciting mid-range device from Poco.
Competition En Route
The Redmi Turbo 4 Pro, potentially rebranded as Poco F7, is expected to face competition in China. The iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro is rumored to also feature the Snapdragon 8s Elite chip and a large 7,500mAh battery with 90W charging. This sets the stage for strong competition in the mid-range performance segment.
What About the Rest of the F7 Family?
Expectations suggest the Poco F7 series may extend beyond the standard F7. Poco F7 Pro and Poco F7 Ultra variants are also speculated. This indicates Poco's plan for a range of F7 models targeting different price points and feature sets globally.
Stay Tuned
EEC certification is just the initial indication. As the anticipated Q2 launch window approaches, more leaks, rumors, and official Poco announcements are anticipated. The Poco F7 appears to be an interesting device. Further news is expected and will be reported as it emerges.
