Xiaomi's Pocophone F1 goes global

by on28 August 2018


Starting at €329/€369 across Europe and other regions

While it has already launched its new Pocophone brand with the Pocophone F1 earlier in India, Xiaomi has now taken the brand global, announcing availability at simultaneous events in Paris, Jakarta, and Hong Kong.

We already wrote about both Xiaomi's and generally the least expensive Snapdragon 845-powered smartphone, but now the Pocophone F1 is available in more than a single market, that is taking the game to a whole new level.

Built with the best possible hardware and materials possible without breaking the bank, the Xiaomi Pocophone F1 packs some serious punch with 2246x1080 resolution notched IPS 6.18-inch screen, liquid cooled Snapdragon 845 SoC with either 6GB or 8GB of RAM, 64GB or 128GB of storage, dual 12MP+5MP rear main camera and 20-megapixel front one, 4,000mAh battery and more.

According to details provided by Xiaomi, the Pocophone F1 will be available as of August 30th, starting at €300 for the 6GB+64GB model and €369 for the 6GB+128GB model. Xiaomi cunningly revealed a starting price as it will heavily depend on the actual region, and it is coming to plenty of those in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Americas.

In France, for example, the 6GB+64GB model goes for €359, while the 128GB goes for €399, and Spain should get it for €329 and €399. In Hong Kong, it goes for HKD 2,800 (or around €300) for the 6GB+128GB version and so on, so basically, you will have to check the price in your region.

In any case, there are quite a few smartphones that will be able to compete with Xiaomi's Pocophone F1 at that price and the company is definitely putting a lot of pressure on the competition.
