Poco M2 launched in India starting at Rs 10,999: Price, specifications and availability

Poco M2 has officially launched in India as the new budget offering by the Xiaomi sub-brand. Just a day after the global launch of the Poco X3 NFC, the company has released a toned-down version of the Poco M2 Pro for the entry-level segment that launched in India on July 7.

Poco M2 has been designed for the budget segment and comes with the essential feature set including a Full HD+ screen, high-capacity battery, water-resistant built and more. Interestingly, the Poco M2 borrows a lot from the Redmi 9 Prime that was launched in August in India. Let’s take a look at the price, specifications and availability of the Poco M2.
