Poco F2 Pro spotted in Google Play listing, is a rebranded Redmi K30 Pro
Last month we came across a report which claimed that the Redmi K30 Pro might come to India as a member of the Poco brand. Then Poco India GM Chandolu Manmohan squashed the rumors by stating that there are no plans to bring the Redmi K30 Pro as the Poco F2 or X2 Pro.
Now, a new listing on the Google Play list of supported devices shows that the Redmi K30 Pro will come as the Poco F2 Pro. We can see the device will sport the same “Imi” code-name like the Redmi K30 Pro but it remains to be seen which markets will get the Poco F2 Pro.
Additionally, we can spot the Redmi K30 Pro Zoom bearing the “Imiinpro” which is the device’s code name for the Indian market. Thus it seems that the Redmi K30 duo will make its way to India with the same branding as in other markets and will not be part of the Poco brand.
It remains to be seen what Xiaomi and the now-independent Poco brand have planned. Poco’s Chandolu Manmohan did confirm that the brand’s next device will come with a higher price tag than the original Pocophone F1 but that’s about the only detail we have so far. In addition, Poco is also working to expand its portfolio with a pair of TWS earbuds for the Indian market.
