Poco X6 teased on X: What to expect
Poco India Head Himanshu Tandon took to social media platform X to post an image with the caption conveying the season’s greetings and teasing the upcoming smartphone.
It reads, “Happy Xmas Everyone,” and has three decorated Christmas Tree emoji, followed by “Santa is coming with the gift soon,” with a sunglasses emoji and a gift emoji. The image attached to the post shows Santa with sunglasses riding a sleigh driven by a tech-inspired reindeer that also has X-shaped horns. This suggests the company’s upcoming launch of the next Poco X-series model in India.

Just like the Poco X5 series, the company is expected to launch the Pro variant first in the X6 lineup as well. The vanilla Poco X6 smartphone is likely to arrive after the launch of the Pro version.

The Poco X6 Pro model has also been spotted on several certification sites. Considering this year’s release schedule, the Pro variant may be the model to debut first in the country. Meanwhile, Poco may launch the base model a few weeks later.
With the model number 23122PCD1I, Poco X6 Pro was recently spotted on the BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) and IMEI websites. An NBTC listing that includes the same model showed that the phone may offer support for GSM, WCDMA LTE, and NR networks as well as 5G connectivity. The Poco X6 Pro is expected to be the rebranded version of the Redmi K70E which was launched in China in November. Meanwhile, the base Poco X6 may debut as a rebranded Redmi Note 13.
