The Poco M2 was recently released in India, and it is basically a more budget-friendly version of the Poco M2 Pro. Sporting a large 5,000mAh battery and a MediaTek Helio G80 chipset, it’s quite an attractive mid-range smartphone with an affordable price tag.

This device also supports 18W fast charging, which is really a necessity with a battery this large.
As mentioned, powering the Poco M2 is a Helio G80 chipset paired with 6GB of RAM. It’s an octa-core processor clocked at 2GHz, so you can expect to get a reasonably good level of performance. As for internal storage, you can opt for the 64GB or 128GB variant. There is also a microSD card slot if you need even more storage space.
Other specifications of the Poco M2 include a 6.53-inch 2340 x 1080 IPS LCD notched display, a quad camera system 13MP f/2.2 primary + 8MP f/2.2 ultra-wide angle + 5MP f/2.4 macro + 2MP f/2.4 depth), an 8MP f/2.0 front-facing camera, as well as three colour options: Brick Red, Slate Blue, and Pitch Black.
