Tech enthusiasts are buzzing after unexpected leaks revealed pricing details for Xiaomi’s highly anticipated Poco F7 Pro and Poco F7 Ultra ahead of their official launch. The information, which surfaced on Amazon and social media platforms, has sparked debates about whether this is a strategic move by Xiaomi or an accidental slip-up.
Amazon Listing Sparks Frenzy
A now-removed Amazon product page (archived here) briefly listed both devices with their purported prices. According to the leak, the Poco F7 Pro is priced at 649. These figures suggest a slight increase compared to last year’s Poco F6 series, likely due to upgraded hardware.
The listing also hinted at key specifications. The F7 Pro is rumored to feature a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chipset, a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, and a 5,500mAh battery supporting 90W fast charging. Meanwhile, the F7 Ultra reportedly steps up with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, a larger 6.8-inch display, and a 200MP primary camera—a first for the Poco lineup.
Social Media Reactions and Speculations
The leak quickly spread to online communities. On Reddit, users in the r/PocoPhones subreddit dissected the details, with some questioning the timing. “Why would Amazon list these so early? Feels intentional,” wrote one commenter. Others praised the rumored specs, calling the F7 Ultra a “flagship killer” if the pricing holds.
Meanwhile, tech tipster @mitsuhiro1027m shared screenshots of the Amazon pages on X (formerly Twitter), corroborating the leak. Followers noted that Xiaomi has a history of “accidental” early listings to build hype, suggesting this could be a repeat strategy.
What’s Next for Xiaomi?
Xiaomi has yet to confirm the authenticity of the leaks. However, industry insiders speculate an official launch event could happen as early as late October, aligning with previous Poco release cycles. The bigger question is whether the company will adjust pricing or specifications in response to the premature reveal.
For budget-conscious buyers, the Poco F7 series appears to continue Xiaomi’s tradition of offering premium features at mid-range prices. With competitors like Realme and OnePlus tightening their grips on the affordable flagship segment, Xiaomi’s aggressive pricing could shake up the market.
Stay tuned for updates—and if you’re eager to snag one of these devices, keep an eye on Amazon’s Xiaomi page for potential pre-order announcements.
