Xiaomi’s sub-brand has released a new phone called the POCO C50, which is actually a rebranded version of a device from another Xiaomi brand, Redmi A1+.

The POCO C50 is one of the cheapest smartphones you can get in the market today. This is why it runs on the power-friendly Android 12 Go Edition with a bit of MIUI for POCO interface on top.

This operating system should play nice with the underwhelming MediaTek Helio A22 quad-core CPU that is paired with either 2GB or 3GB of RAM and a single 32GB of internal storage. If that’s not enough, there’s a microSD card slot for storage expansion.

It may not have the most powerful chip, but it does have a large 5,000mAh battery. This duo should make for a long screen-on time. Albeit, charging might be slow as Xiaomi only included a 10W adapter.

On the front, there’s a 6.52-inch screen with the standard HD+ pixel resolution and 60Hz refresh rate.

There’s a 5-megapixel selfie camera on the top of the screen, while on the back, we have an 8-megapixel main shooter and a depth sensor. We also have the fingerprint scanner back here as well as a leather-like plastic panel.
