Poco C85 5G will launch in India in a few hours. After its debut, it will go on sale in the country via Flipkart in Mystic Purple, Spring Green, and Power Black colourways. While its pricing details remain under wraps, the Xiaomi sub-brand has teased various key specifications and features of the phone. It will be equipped with a 6.9-inch HD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The tech firm recently confirmed that the handset will be backed by a 6,000mAh battery. The company also says that the phone will provide more than 106 hours of music playback.
Ahead of its much-anticipated India launch, here is all you need to know about the Poco C85 5G, including its expected price in India, key features, and specifications.
The Poco C85 5G will be launched in India by the Chinese smartphone brand on December 9 at 12pm IST. The company has yet to announce whether it will host a dedicated live event for the phone or unveil it through a soft launch. In case the tech firm decides to host an event, it is expected to be livestreamed on the company website, its official YouTube channel, and via different social media platforms.
We still don't know the price of the Poco C85 5G in India, and it will be revealed by the Xiaomi sub-brand when the phone is launched. However, its global counterpart, which only offers 4G LTE connectivity, was launched in select markets at a starting price of $109 (roughly Rs. 9,600) for the base variant with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of built-in storage. Meanwhile, the 8GB RAM + 256GB storage option was available at an early bird price of $129 (about Rs. 11,400). In India, the phone could be priced similarly or a little higher than this.
