POCO have had rumours surfacing about their next hand at smartphones for quite a while now, dating back to April at the earliest. Then, we heard of rumours about the POCO F2 lineup being brought to a global market, as a re-branded Redmi K30 Pro.
Adding fuel to the flames, POCO has now started to ramp up their Twitter game after being awfully quiet since March 2019. The global Twitter account for POCO started tweeting these:

As corny as all this sounds, it’s shaping up to them announcing a new smartphone, and most notably of course, it’s expected to be the POCO F2 series. Newer rumours suggested the POCO F2 debuting in May, so we may see the devices sooner rather than later. Leaks and rumours from a Portugal tech site also suggested two phones, the POCO F2 Pro and POCO F2, but this hasn’t been confirmed by POCO just yet.
Some of the leaked specs included the POCO F2 Pro will in-fact be the rebranded Redmi K30 Pro, with 6GB/128GB storage and 8GB/256GB variants of the POCO F2 are priced at 649 Euros (~RM3,070) and 749 Euros (~RM3550) respectively in Europe.
The POCO F2 Pro is also rumoured to house a 6.67-inch notch-less IPS LCD display, 20MP pop-up camera, and quad camera setup consisting of a 64MP Sony IMX686 shooter, 13MP ultrawide camera, 5MP telephoto lens and 2MP depth sensor. It will also reportedly be equipped with the latest Snapdragon 854 platform, and a beefy 4,700mAh battery capable of 33W fast charging.
