The wait for the next POCO F series smartphones may not be long, with rumors swirling around the global and India launch dates of the POCO F7 Pro and POCO F7 Ultra. Set to launch sooner than the POCO F6 series, which debuted in May 2024, these two new performance-focused smartphones could redefine the premium midrange segment if their rumored pricing holds true. While details about the POCO F7 Pro emerged recently, the POCO F7 Ultra’s specifications and Geekbench scores have now surfaced, adding to the excitement.
POCO F7 Series Launch Date Rumors
According to tipster @TX_Tech_Xpert, the POCO F7 series is expected to launch globally on March 27th, 2025. The tipster shared a poster featuring the tagline, “Ultrapower Unleashed,” suggesting a focus on performance. Another prominent tipster, Abhishek Yadav, pointed out that the series may consist of two models – the POCO F7 Pro and POCO F7 Ultra – and could see an Indian launch on the same day, 91Mobiles reported. This information conflicts with earlier rumors that these phones might skip the Indian market this year. POCO India’s head, Himanshu Tandon, recently sparked speculation on Twitter by asking users whether they preferred the POCO F7 Pro or the POCO F7 Ultra. This conversation suggests that both phones may indeed make their way to India, much to the delight of POCO fans.
