The launch of the Poco F5 FG is expected to happen in January 2023. There is no official announcement from Xiaomi yet. However, according to a report by Xiaomiui, the display and the processor details of the upcoming smartphone have been deciphered. As per it, the Poco F4 was a rebranded version of the Redmi K40s and similarly the Poco F5 5G will be a rebranded version of the Redmi K60.

Poco F5 5G will feature an AMOLED panel with 2K resolution (1440*3200). The device is said to have a 120Hz refresh rate with 1000 nits screen brightness. While the Poco F4 came with Snapdragon 870, the upcoming Poco F5 5G is said to be packed with Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC which will be better in terms of performance.

According to the same report, A new phone with Chinese, Global, and Indian model numbers appeared in the IMEI database with the model numbers “23013RK75C, 23013PC75I, and 23013PC75G”. Decoding the model numbers, we learn “23” stands for 2023, “01” refers to January and “PC” refers to Poco. The “G and I” represents the Global and Indian version and “RK” in 23013RK75C possibly refers to the Redmi K-series.

If the leaks come true, The Poco F5 5G will be made available in early 2023, possibly in January. However, it will be first released in China as Redmi K60 and could be later made available for the Global and Indian market under the Poco moniker. Let’s see.
