Xiaomi is likely to unveil the Poco F7 soon, with recent rumors suggesting a possible launch in late May. While the exact plans for this mid-range phone have not been confirmed by the company, a new leak has shed some light on the situation.
Global and Indian Launch
According to the leaker @paperking13 on X (previously known as Twitter), Xiaomi is preparing to release the Poco F7 both internationally and in India. However, it seems that the global version of the Poco F7 will come with a significantly reduced battery capacity.
Battery Specifications
The leaked information reveals a snippet of Xiaomi’s internal code for the Poco F7, indicating that the global model will feature a 6,500 mAh battery. In contrast, the versions intended for India and likely China are expected to have a larger 7,550 mAh battery. This supports the theory that the Poco F7 may simply be a rebranded Redmi Turbo 4 Pro for markets outside of China. Both variants are said to support 90 W charging, which is a positive aspect.
Previous Instances of Smaller Batteries
This isn’t the first instance this year that Xiaomi has launched a phone globally with a smaller battery. The Xiaomi 15 series followed a similar pattern. The Poco X7 Pro (available on Amazon) also launched with a 6,000 mAh battery internationally, while the Indian version came with a 6,550 mAh battery, identical to the Chinese variant, the Redmi Turbo 4.
