While the specific name and launch date were not confirmed in the teaser, enthusiasts are buzzing with excitement over the impending debut of what could potentially be the Poco X6 Neo.

This device is rumored to be a rebranded version of the Redmi Note 13R Pro, a smartphone that made its debut in China back in November of the previous year.

In an intriguing announcement, Poco hinted at the forthcoming release of a new smartphone belonging to the Neo series, without divulging precise details such as the official name or the exact date of its launch. Nonetheless, industry insiders have been speculating for weeks about the imminent unveiling of the Poco X6 Neo, heightening anticipation among eager consumers. Meanwhile, the unveiling of the Realme 12 5G, equipped with a MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ 5G SoC, earlier has sparked some interesting commentary.

Poco India head, Himanshu Tandon, subtly expressed skepticism by highlighting what he perceived as drawbacks, notably mentioning the presence of an LCD panel and the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ processor in a smartphone priced below 17,000 rupees.

Tandon emphasized the superiority of the Poco M65 5G, which boasts the same chipset but at a more competitive price point below 10,000 rupees, advising potential buyers to exercise patience for the imminent release of the new Neo phone.
