The Poco C51 launched last April will soon get a successor dubbed Poco C61, which has appeared in leaked renders revealing the phone’s design.
The Poco C61 has a notched display on the front and a circular camera island on the rear, housing two cameras and an LED flash. On its left-side frame is the triple card slot (2 SIM + 1 microSD), while the power button and volume rocker are on the right. The USB-C port is located at the bottom with a microphone, and up top is the 3.5mm headphone jack.
The source claims that the Poco C61 is powered by the Helio G36 SoC and has two memory configurations – 4GB/64GB and 6GB/128GB. The smartphone features a 6.71″ 90Hz HD+ LCD with Gorilla Glass 3 protection and 500 nits brightness.
The Poco C61 will have three cameras – a 5MP selfie camera on the front and an 8MP primary camera on the rear, joined by a 0.08MP auxiliary unit. Fueling the entire package will be a 5,000 mAh battery with 10W charging support. The smartphone will also feature a side-mounted fingerprint scanner for biometric authentication. If all this sounds familiar, it’s because the Poco C61 is a rebranded Redmi A3 launched in India in February.
The source didn’t reveal the Poco C61’s launch date but claimed its 4GB/64GB version will be priced at INR7,499 ($90/€82) in India while the 6GB/128GB model will cost INR8,499 ($100/€95).
There’s no word from Poco about the Poco C61 yet, but since the Poco C51 was launched last year in April, you can expect the Poco C61 to go official soon.
