Poco M7 5G is expected to launch soon as a successor to the Poco M6 5G, which was unveiled in India in December 2023. The Indian variant of the purported smartphone has reportedly been spotted on a popular benchmarking website. This suggests an imminent launch of the handset. It could arrive as a rebranded Redmi 14R, which was introduced in China in September this year. Notably, the Poco M7 Pro 5G is confirmed to launch in India on December 17 alongside a Poco C75 5G handset.
Poco M7 5G Geekbench Listing
An upcoming smartphone with the model number Xiaomi 24108PCE2I has been spotted on Geekbench. This model number has previously been tipped to be the Poco M7 5G and the “I” suggests it is the Indian variant of the rumoured phone. The company has yet to announce the handset officially.
The listing suggests that the Poco M7 5G scored 916 and 2,109 points on the single-core and multi-core tests, respectively. The phone is listed with an octa-core chipset with two cores clocking at 2.21GHz and six cores at 1.96GHz. It appears with an Adreno 613 GPU and support for 6GB of RAM. It is said to run on Android 14-based HyperOS.
The details suggest that the chipset used on the Poco M7 5G is likely the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2, which also powers the Redmi 14R. If the purported Poco handset is a rebrand of the Redmi model, it is expected to get similar design elements and other features.
