The Poco C3 has been officially announced, complete with a rear triple camera unit, an HD+ display, a satisfyingly large battery and, most importantly, a super affordable price. Launched in India from the Xiaomi spin-off brand Poco, the C3 is based on the Redmi 9C, which was recently launched in Malaysia. However, the Poco C3 doesn't have the Redmi 9C's fingerprint scanner.
The Poco C3 will have a 6.53" HD+ display with a 20:9 aspect ratio. It'll also feature a waterdrop notch to house the front-facing camera, which is 5MP with an f/2.2 aperture.
