[2026] POCO F9 Series

[froztheart]

POCO F9 series launch date: 01 SEPT 2026, 2000hr







POCO is reportedly working on the Poco F9 series of smartphones. According to a report by XimiTime, two F9 series devices have emerged in the GSMA IMEI database, revealing their model numbers and monikers. At the same time, these devices have also received certifications in multiple countries, indicating that their global launch could be fast approaching.

Poco F9 Ultra, Poco F9 Pro global launch may be near​

Apart from surfacing in the IMEI database, both devices have also appeared on Indonesia’s SDPPI and Singapore’s IMDA certification platforms. This is earlier than expected, considering that the Poco F8 Ultra and F8 Pro were spotted on IMDA and Thailand’s NBTC certification platform in October before going official in November.

The Redmi K100 series is expected to debut in China in August. Since the Poco F9 Pro and F9 Ultra are expected to be based on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered Redmi K100 series, the F9 lineup could break cover globally as early as October.

Nowadays they don't really do clearance sale. They are controlling the stocks for SG nowadays, so don't have much stock to clear to begin with.

Nowadays really not many good deals for phones. Seems like they are controlling the prices.

The last round was during 11.11 where the heaviest discount was seenin
In SG, the discounts seem far more limited compared to the rest of the region.

I have a feeling that will be the case... Either that, or Dimensity 9500+ or something. With a bigger battery and maybe cam sensors with higher MP, with the same 2.1 sound setup.

Just a lot more expensive because of the crazy RAM and flash storage pricing.

It reverted back as usual to prepare for the actual 8-8 sale. Will have to wait for tonight for it to come down back to $480 or lower

Price is still around $468 for 256gb and $499 for 512gb. If you don't see that price, then probably is your account kenna soft ban (assume you collected all vouchers)
