Pocophone F1 he was indeed the first flagship killer, that must be admitted. Although it is now referred to by this title Redmi K20 Pro, a subsidiary of Xiaomi – Poco – more than a year ago, it launched a phone with an almost impossible price-to-performance ratio.
For this reason, the new generation Pocophone F2 in great anticipation, but it has not yet arrived. Why is that so?
What are the reasons for the delay Pocophone F2?
The subsidiary brand of Xiaomi released a now cult smartphone over a year ago Pocophone F1, which was primarily intended for the Indian market. At that time, it shocked the competition and the general public, because it managed to squeeze the best performance equipment into a price below 300 dollars.
It is therefore understandable that his successor is in high anticipation. However, it does not come even after more than a year, and here are possible reasons why this is so.
Let's start with the latest event: change of CEO of the brand Pocophone. This is now Alvin Tse, who now has a brand role Pocohold the phone. In June / June of this year, Jai Mani, who previously led it, left the brand.
The reason was supposed to be the launch of the series Redmi K20 for the Indian market, which was also primarily intended for Pocophone. So there were some changes in the company that certainly did not help and do not help the introduction of the new one Pocophone.

A possible reason is the introduction Redmi K20 Pro
Another reason should be introduction of the already mentioned smartphone Redmi K20 Pro, who has apparently and rightfully assumed the moniker of flagship killer. After all, a year after the introduction of the smartphone Pocophone F1 also came with newer and more powerful smartphone equipment.
In addition, the introduction of the K20 series to the Indian market, for which it is also primarily intended Pocophone, no longer left a vacant position for an equally equipped smartphone with approximately the same price. Even if the successor of the brand is listed Pocophone on the market, it should not be surprising.
And last but not least, we must mention that even if Pocophone took this step and with almost the same equipment in the new model, they would fight for a place on the market, it would be "shooting each other".
Aj Pocophone too Redmi they belong to the parent brand Xiaomi. It would not make sense to publish two equally equipped smartphones under different brands.
For now, we dare not say whether the successor Pocophone F1 will ever see the light of day, nor will it ever happen. The brand has new management and the future will tell us how it will do and where it will go.
