This is more of a teaser, so it doesn’t give away the full details about the phone, but it does confirm that it will be based on the Redmi K30 Pro. It claims it will poses the “most powerful chipset” and shows off the Snapdragon logo (so an S865 chip) and promises a true “full screen” (without showing the pop-up camera that makes it possible).

The page listing mentions four cameras and shows off the round camera island, it also boasts about a large battery and fast charging without going into specifics. It does reveal a few things, though.

The Poco F2 Pro will be available with 6GB of RAM and 128GB storage as standard with an 8/256GB option. There will be a choice of four colors: Purple, White, Grey and Blue.

Gearbest is hiding the price for now, but that leaked a few days ago – in Europe it will be €600 or €650, depending on local taxes. Also keep in mind that the 5G support will be dropped in some markets, which is likely another factor in the difference in base price.

That’s close to double the €330 price tag of the original. Even the Redmi K30 Pro itself is €500 or so (though its not readily available in the West). There's also the Poco X2, which is based on the vanilla K30 and is much more affordable.
