Leaked POCO M4 Pro teaser hints at imminent India debut
What's the story
POCO is likely to announce its M4 Pro model in India soon. 91mobiles has leaked an unreleased teaser of the handset, claiming it will "hit the commercial shelves in India soon enough." The POCO M4 Pro 5G was announced last year but it is unclear at the moment if the Indian market will receive the 5G model or the 4G variant.
Context
Why does this story matter?
Going by the leaked teaser image, which 91mobiles says is an "internal training image," the POCO M4 Pro 5G will have a tagline of "Step Up Ur Game." In India, it will replace the M3 Pro 5G, which was announced here last June as the company's first 5G handset. Comparatively, the M4 Pro has a larger display, better chipset, superior cameras, and faster-charging capability.
