Little C55 teaser
Anyway, as a preview you might want to take a look at the Redmi 12C, the Poco C55 is speculated to be based on that very model (with the addition of a fancier back, of course).
The Poco C50 was announced in January with a Helio A22 running Android 12 Go Edition and a starting price of ₹ 6,500 (actually, initially a bit less due to an introductory discount). The C50 has a leather-like texture on the back but without stitching.
