The Poco C40, with model number 220333QPG, was earlier spotted on the NBTC certification website. The model number of the Poco C40 is the same as that of the Redmi 10C (known as Redmi 10 in India). To those unaware, the Redmi 10C Global variant carries the model number 220333QAG.

Based on the similarity in the model number, it appears that the upcoming Poco C40 could be a rebranded Redmi 10C with some changes under the hood. To recall, the Redmi 10C features a 6.7-inch HD+ LCD display with 400nits brightness and a waterdrop notch. The handset offers a 50MP primary camera and a 2MP depth sensor.

The Redmi 10C is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 processor. However, the Poco C40 is said to ditch the Snapdragon chipset from its Redmi counterpart for the JR510 SoC.
