The Poco F6 Pro was recently launched in India and rumours for the next-generation model have already started pouring in. The Poco F7 Pro has allegedly been spotted online, suggesting that the device may launch globally in the near future. Gizmochina first spotted the device on the IMEI database with model number 24122RKC7G. Here’s everything we know about it.

The POCO F7 Pro will first launch in China as the Redmi K80 with a model number of 24122RKC7C. But why? It is being said that the ‘C’ in the model number means that the device will come to China and the ‘2412’ in the model number means that the unit could launch in December 2024. This launch event will likely be for the China debut of the Redmi K80 and this is not surprising as the company usually introduces its new devices at the end of the year.

For your reference, the same happened with the previous generation. The Poco F6 Pro has the same model number (23113RKC6) and was made available in China as the Redmi K70 in late 2023. But, nothing has been officially confirmed yet.

The Poco F7 Pro is powered by Qualcomm’s current flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. This is because the previous generation device – the Poco F6 Pro – was announced with the top-end Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset.

The new Poco F7 Pro model is also said to have a large 6,000mAh battery, which will not be a surprise if it turns out to be true. Several different phone leaks have been made online, suggesting that the 2025 unit may have a 6,000mAh battery for better battery life. The Poco F7 Pro may come with an OLED panel with 2K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate, just like its previous model.

The leak also suggests that the Redmi K80 Pro version will also be launched in China and may feature a more powerful chip. Qualcomm may introduce its new Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 SoC and the Redmi K80 Pro may feature the same, something the company does every year with its new offerings. Apart from this, the Pro version may feature a 2K display with 120Hz refresh rate, 120W fast charging support, and a 50-megapixel telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom.

It is not yet known when the Poco F7 Pro will launch in the global market. The company has not yet acknowledged the existence of this smartphone. If the launch is happening in the coming months, we are likely to get more information about the device through leaks or official sources.
