POCO C65: what we know so far

There isn’t much that has been revealed about the POCO C65 but assuming it’s going to be a rebranded Redmi 13C, we have some information. Based on this speculation, the POCO C55 is expected to come with thick bezels and a waterdrop notch. The smartphone could house a 50MP primary camera. It’s expected to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6100 Plus chipset. 

The smartphone is also tipped to feature a USB Type-C port, and it will most likely launch in three colour options: Black, Green, and Blue. There’s a 5G model expected for the Redmi 13C so we might just see one for the POCO C65 as well.

In India, the POCO C65 is expected to succeed the POCO C55 that launched earlier this year in February. Recapping its specs, the POCO C55 features a 6.71-inch HD+ display with a 120Hz touch sampling rate and a waterdrop notch. It’s powered by the MediaTek Helio G85 SoC paired with up to 6GB of RAM and 128GB of onboard storage. On the software front, the POCO C55 runs MIUI 13 based on Android 12.
