As the POCO F1 by Xiaomi smartphone is due for a reveal in Jakarta today, we spotted the Mi Store in IOI City Mall Putrajaya Facebook page flashing a #flagshipkiller hashtag image of what certainly looks like the POCO F1 Armoured Edition. Featuring a kevlar-based body, the POCO F1 Armoured Edition was recently revealed in India for 29999 INR (~RM1762) with the same Snapdragon 845 chipset, 12MP+5MP AI dual rear camera, 20MP Dual Pixel front camera, infrared face unlock as the normal polycarbonate POCO F1.

The much rumoured POCO F1 smartphone by Xiaomi has just gone official with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset, 12MP+5MP AI dual rear camera, 20MP Dual Pixel front camera, infrared face unlock (so it works in the dark) and 6GB RAM + 64GB storage from 20999 INR (~RM1233). Featuring LiquidCool tech in a polycarbonate (basically plastic) body, the POCO F1 also has a 4000 mAh battery and is set for release in India on 29 August 2018. No Malaysian release dates or pricing details yet, but it is expected in Jakarta on 27 August 2018, so it could eventuallly come to Malaysia.
