Unfortunately we have to give unpleasant news to everyone who was dreaming of a Mi-like 10 in a slightly less expensive version, or Xiaomi Mi 10T To be honest though, it would have been absurd to see a rebranding Redmi K30 Pro in this sauce: if already Lu Weibing long ago said that this device will not be better than the Mi 10 series devices, perhaps a bell could ring us. Also, several days ago we had feared the possibility that POCO F2 were the person concerned. Today, however, to dispel any doubt, the highly trained team of XDA who discovered new evidence about this thorny issue.
There will be no Xiaomi Mi 10T, only one POCOPHONE F2 which is about to be the next flagship killer
The well-known team of developers and geeks has uncovered evidence that Redmi K30 Pro will be launched in India, possibly under the brand POCO. We don't know yet if it will be called POCO F2, but since K30 Pro is a flagship smartphone with Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, it is one very papabile possibility. Also in the MIUI camera code codenames have been found that refer to this device.
As reported by the team tutto began with decompiling in one of the most recent versions of the MIUI "Camera" app in the latest MIUI 11 beta version. A way has been discovered through which, without going into too much technical detail, the result would lead to the fact that Redmi K30 Pro is nothing more than an international version of another smartphone. So far so good: you could say "Well, it could also be Xiaomi Mi 10T then", And instead not. If you remember well, the K30 and K30 Pro models have the code name “Name"and "Imipro": According to this procedure there is a positive result only if these two devices are named and within their name the word "in" of Indian appears (or international if we want).
But it is not over because according to other tests, the watermark that would appear on the photographs taken by these smartphones with "Indian code" inside seems to quote "SHOT-ON POCO PHONE". The tests end here but however this is enough to understand that we will never see a Redmi K30 Pro as it is in our market, but seight lying lies that is those of POCOPHONE F2. Nothing too strange if we think the standard version Redmi K30 4G has been rebranded as POCO X2 a few days ago.

Easier than X2 Pro, even if I don't understand the reason not to call it Redmi
The reason is not known, but if you think about it also the Redmi K20 and K20 Pro have been a rebranding and in fact correspond to Mi 9T and Mi 9T Pro. The difference is that this time it changes with POCO and not with Xiaomi.
