Xiaomi has an upcoming Poco C61 phone on the horizon, with recent certifications from Bluetooth SIG and BIS hinting at its prompt arrival in several markets. The device, bearing the model number 2312BPC51H, matches closely with the Redmi A3's model number (23129RN51H), leading to speculation that the Poco C61 might be a rebranded iteration.
Certified for Bluetooth 5.4 and equipped with Android 14 straight out of the box, the Poco C61's dual certifications solidify its anticipated debut in India. Drawing parallels with the Redmi A3, expectations for the C61's specifications are high.
The Redmi A3 remembered for its sizable 6.7-inch LCD offering HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate, packs a MediaTek Helio G36 processor. The setup brings up to 6GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 128GB of eMMC 5.1 storage, underpinning the Poco C61's potential hardware blueprint.
Running Android 13 topped with MIUI 14, the Redmi A3 features an 8MP primary camera, a 0.08MP depth sensor, and a 5MP front-facing camera, which the Xiaomi new Poco mobile will likely emulate. The device doesn't skimp on essentials either, boasting a 3.5mm headphone jack, MicroSD expansion, a side-mounted fingerprint reader, and USB Type-C connectivity.
With support for dual SIM, 4G, dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.3, and GNSS, the smartphone is well-equipped for modern connectivity needs. Rounding off its features is a durable 5,000mAh battery with 10W charging support, which means the Poco C61 easily handles daily demands. As the launch approaches, the tech community is keen to see how the Poco C61 stands out in the competitive budget segment.
