Poco M3 Pro 5G price leaks ahead of India launch

The Poco M3 Pro is barely a day away from from being launched in India. The phone will be unveiled tomorrow, with the company also set to reveal its pricing at the virtual launch event. However, the announcement may not be interesting for a lot of fans as the phone's price has already been leaked online. The leak comes courtesy of Twitter user @theleaksguy. 

The phone is set to become the first 5G smartphone from Poco, and will come to India after being launched in China earlier in the year. The phone offers quite a few things to like, with its highlights being a 6.5-inch FHD+ 90Hz DynamicSwitch DotDisplay and a fast Dimensity 700 chipset under the hood. And all this will reportedly be available at an aggressive price. 

As per leaks, the Poco M3 Pro 5G in India will be launched at Rs 17,999 for the 6GB/128GB version. However, the phone is expected to be launched in a 64GB variant also which is expected to be more affordable. The phone is tipped to be available via Flipkart once launched.
