Earlier this month, POCO had posted a teaser on social media platforms that read G99 which sort of indicated that an Helio G99-powered device from the brand is incoming.

POCO M5 4G: Specifications and Features

The POCO M5 4G is said to offer a 6.58-inch Full HD+ LCD display panel. We can expect the smartphone to offer a 90Hz refresh rate, if not 120Hz. The smartphone is tipped to sport an octa-core MediaTek Helio G99 processor and at least 6GB of RAM.

The POCO M5 4G is tipped to feature a 5000mAh battery. It will reportedly support at least 33W fast charging. Also, the smartphone might come with a chic-leather-like rear panel which POCO has been teasing on social media lately.

The upcoming POCO M-series smartphone might offer a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and might boot Android 12 out of the box. We can expect the company to drop teasers for the upcoming launch soon. The POCO M5 has already cleared FCC and NBTC certifications, so we can expect it to launch in other global markets as well.
