Poco F6 Global Variant Spotted on Geekbench; May Get Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC

Poco F6 is expected to launch later this year as a successor to the Poco F5 5G, that was unveiled in May 2023. Previous reports have claimed that the Poco F6 could be a rebranded version of the Redmi Turbo 3, which was introduced in China earlier in April. The handset has also appeared on several certification sites over the past few weeks. Now, the purported Poco F6 has been spotted on a benchmarking website.

A Poco phone with model number 24069PC21G has been spotted on the Geekbench website, said to be the Poco F6. The phone has scored 1,884 and 4,799 points in single-core and multi-core tests, respectively. The listing shows that the handset will support 12GB of RAM and ship with Android 14-based HyperOS. 

The ‘G’ in the model number of the Poco F6 suggests that it could be the global variant. The octa-core Qualcomm chipset on the phone is listed to have a clock speed of 3.01GHz. It is expected to be the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC, which is likely to be paired with an Adreno 735 GPU.

A recent report claims that the Poco F6 will likely be equipped with a dual rear camera unit that could include a 50-megapixel Sony IMX920 primary sensor alongside an 8-megapixel Sony IMX355 sensor paired with an ultrawide lens. The report adds that the phone is expected to get LPDDR5x RAM and UFS 4.0 inbuilt storage. It is also likely to feature an AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protection.

The Poco F6 with model number 24069PC21I was also recently spotted on the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) listing, suggesting an imminent India launch.

Since the Poco F6 is expected to be a rebadged version of the Redmi Turbo 3, it is expected to offer similar design elements and key features. The Poco phone may sport a 6.7-inch 120Hz 1.5K OLED display, a 20-megapixel selfie shooter, a 50-megapixel dual rear camera unit, and a 5,000mAh battery with support for 90W fast charging.

Poco F6 Tipped to Feature Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC, 50-Megapixel Sony Camera

Poco’s Global executive David Liu recently teased the arrival of a new Poco F series phone without confirming the exact moniker. It is tipped to be the Poco F6. The Xiaomi sub-brand is yet to announce the launch date of the new F series device but ahead of it, its specifications have emerged online. It is anticipated to run on the newly released Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC. It is said to feature a 50-megapixel Sony IMX882 sensor. The Poco F6 has been speculated to debut as a rebranded version of the unannounced Redmi Note 13 Turbo.

Android Headlines, citing HyperOS source code, claims that the Poco F6 will run on the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC. The Poco phone codenamed “peridot” will be the second handset in the world to run on the latest Qualcomm chipset. Xiaomi launched the Civi 4 Pro as the first phone with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset earlier this month.

Further, the report states that the Poco F6 will feature a Sony IMX882 50-megapixel primary camera. The same sensor is used in the outgoing Realme 12 Pro 5G and the iQoo Z9 5G. The camera setup will reportedly include an 8-megapixel Sony IMX355 ultra wide-angle sensor as well. It is said to have the internal model number “N16T“.

Poco has reportedly used display panels from TCL and Tianma on the Poco F6. However, there is no word on the display specifications yet.

Poco F6 has been in the rumour mill for quite some time. Poco Global executive David Liu (@DavidBlueLS) recently seemingly confirmed the existence of the device. It is anticipated to go official between April and May alongside the Poco F6 Pro. It was earlier rumoured to come as a rebranded version of the unannounced Redmi Note 13 Turbo.

The Poco F6 is believed to come with upgrades over last year’s Poco F5 5G, which was unveiled in May last year with a price tag of Rs. 29,999 for the 8GB RAM + 256GB storage variant.

Poco Phone With Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC Teased; Could be the Poco F6

Poco F6 has been doing rounds of the rumour mill the past few weeks. The phone has been spotted on certification sites suggesting its imminent India launch. It is said to come as a rebranded version of the Redmi Note 13 Turbo. Neither Redmi nor Poco has officially announced the said handsets yet but several leaks have hinted at their key features. Now, a senior Poco official has teased an upcoming phone with the newest Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC and reignited speculations that it could be the Poco F6.

Poco Global executive David Liu (@DavidBlueLS) teased the upcoming launch of a Poco handset in a post on X (formerly Twitter) and suggested that the model will be the first global debut of the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC. He did not confirm the moniker of the upcoming smartphone. It is being speculated to be the Poco F6 since the model has been widely spotted in online certification sites and leaks.

Although the executive mentioned the Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro in his post which recently launched in China with the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset, it is unlikely that the purported Poco model will share any similarities with it, outside of the processor.

Previously, the Poco F6 model has been tipped to launch as a rebranded version of the Redmi Note 13 Turbo, which is expected to be unveiled in China soon. The company has officially teased the launch of a new Redmi series in China but has not yet confirmed the moniker.

Notably, the Redmi Note 13 Turbo has been tipped to come with a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC, a 6.78-inch 1.5K OLED display with up to 144Hz refresh rate, and a 6,000mAh battery with support for 80W wired fast charging. It is also likely to ship with Android 14-based HyperOS skin.

Poco X6 Neo to Launch in India by March, Poco F6 to Follow: Report

Poco X6 Neo is expected to launch in India soon. The model, said to join the Poco X6 and Poco X6 Pro lineup, is tipped to come as a rebranded Redmi Note 13R Pro. Previous leaks had suggested key specifications it could carry and the likely price of the smartphone in the country. Now a tipster has hinted at the launch timeline of the phone. Another model, the Poco F6, previously spotted on an Indian certification site, has also been tipped to be unveiled in the country soon.

A 91Mobiles report, citing tipster Yogesh Brar (@heyitsyogesh), claimed that the Poco X6 Neo will launch in India by March 2024, and it will also likely be the company’s last X-series model to launch in the first half of 2024. The tipster added that the Poco F6 will debut in the country by July 2024. This model was earlier spotted on the BIS certification site but not much is known about it yet. We are likely to learn more about the Poco F6 in the coming weeks, as we inch closer to its supposed launch.

Previous leaks have suggested that the Poco X6 Neo will be priced at around or below Rs. 15,000. The phone is said to get a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and will likely be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 6080 SoC. It could also get a 5,000mAh battery with 33W fast charging support. The phone has also been tipped to arrive with a 3.5mm audio jack and an IP54-rated build for dust and splash resistance.

Since the Poco X6 Neo is expected to launch as a rebadged version of the Redmi Note 13R Pro, it is likely to share similar specifications. The Redmi model carries a 108-megapixel primary sensor alongside a 2-megapixel shooter at the back and a 16-megapixel sensor for its front camera. It ships with Android 13-based MIUI 14 and sports a 6.67-inch (1,080×2,400 pixels) 120Hz OLED display. It comes with a MediaTek Dimensity 6080 SoC and a 5,000mAh battery with support for 33W fast charging.

Notably, the Redmi Note 13R Pro launched at CNY 1,999 (roughly Rs. 23,000) for the only 12GB + 256GB option. The phone is offered in Midnight Black, Time Blue, and Morning Light Gold (translated from Chinese) colourways.
