A certification listing of a new POCO device popped up late last month, revealing that the company was finally planning on launching something original. The listing showcased a device with a new back panel design that we hadn’t seen on any existing Xiaomi smartphone, and it confirmed that the device would feature a 64MP primary camera. A SAR test report for the device also revealed that it would pack in a 5,160mAh battery and include support for 33W fast charging. Even though the listings didn’t reveal the marketing name for the device, our internal sources suggested that it would be called the POCO X3. As expected, Xiaomi’s subsidiary has now officially unveiled the POCO X3 NFC, and it’s powered by Qualcomm’s latest mid-range Snapdragon 732G chipset.
