This year we witnessed the birth of a very talked-about smartphone, which has a very low price and the top-of-the-range specifications: we are talking about the Pocophone F1 by POCOPHONE, Xiaomi sub-brand born from the desire to find a middle ground between very expensive high-end devices and mid-range devices that yes, they cost poco, but they always have some compromise. But now we see some leaks of the flagship-killer successor Pocophone F2.
Concept Pocophone F2 by POCOPHONE
With the company Poco F1 the only compromise we found was a design and a material that is to the touch poco (by now we are used to these puns) premium, but on the other side we have some specifications worthy of note including the presence of a SoC Snapdragon 845 mounted under the polycarbonate shell.
A week ago, however, the Youtube channel SmartPhone 360, channel that mainly publishes leaks, rumors and concept videos concerning the new devices, has published an interesting video about the Pocophone F2: according to the new channel flagship killer, so called by many, would present itself with a Super AMOLED touchscreen display from 6.3 '' and a report of the dimensions of 19.5: 9.
It would also mount one Snapdragon 855: remember that this processor could be the first to adopt a different name and it was announced as the first processor that will fully exploit the 5G technology. Below are the alleged benchmarks that would see it, at least in multi-core score, aligned with the A11 Bionic processor mounted on iPhone X.
La GPU would be an Adreno 630 and cuts of RAM would 10 and 12GB, flanked by a memory from 256 or 512GB, which would be really interesting if it was confirmed considering that currently smartphones with more RAM available I am the 3 Mi Mix and the Black Shark Helo that arrive at 10GB. As regards the battery it would be one 4000 mHaobviously not removable, as for the previous model and at software level we will see it with mounted up Android 9.1 Pie with MIUI for Poco, update of 9.0 which gives poco came out on the market.
A novelty regarding the design but also the usability, is that the device could be presented no more with the "horned" notch that we are now used to seeing, but with camera and IR sensor for face recognition integrated into the display: this would therefore allow a much more premium appearance as it would be a novelty on the devices of this brand and in general of Xiaomi. The guys of the Youtube channel think of an integration of the cameras but personally I think it will not be so, but that will be presented with a drip notch that from today rebaptizes "gotch" . Also we could find well three main cameras from 24 megapixel with f / 1.7 aperture, 13 megapixel with aperture f / 2.4 e 8 megapixel with f / 2.2 opening.
As regards the prices obviously nothing is known yet, but with respect to the release dates it is rumored that it could be presented during the Q2 of 2019, then pressappoco between April and June 2019. We are expecting a definitely low price as per tradition but despite everything higher than the predecessor, given the technical specifications that currently are not present on any device.
