POCO establishes its global
independence as it unveils its latest budget smartphone, featuring a powerful
camera, 6,000 mAh battery and FHD+ display
POCO M3 marks the debut of POCO Global’s M-series: the brand’s
foray into an entirely new category. The new product line builds on POCO
Global’s success competing with top-of-the line flagships with its F-series, as
well as the impact of its X series in the mid-range category, opening the brand
up to a new set of global tech lovers.
POCO Brand Independence
With this latest launch, POCO Global is ushering in a new era as
an independent brand. This significant milestone was enabled by the
overwhelming support of its global fan base, which helped the brand accomplish
several notable achievements since its initial POCO F1 device debuted in
2018:
·
The brand entered more than 35
global markets within three years;
·
POCO F1 reached over 2.2 million
shipments*;
·
Overall, the brand has sold over 6
million* POCO phones globally.
“These tremendous results underscore consumers’ overwhelming
endorsement of POCO’s brand philosophy – ‘everything you need, nothing you
don’t – and we remain focused on bringing innovative technology to consumers
without all the unnecessary frills.” said Kevin Qiu, Head of POCO Global.
“The POCO philosophy embodies an attitude we all strive for - to
be different and confident. As a newly-established independent brand, we’re
looking forward to continuing to deliver technology that matters in an
ever-evolving world.”
