POCO F5 is a rebranded version of Redmi Note 12 Turbo, and POCO F5 Pro is a rebranded version of Redmi K60.

Both phones will come with flagship specifications. POCO F5 will be equipped with Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 chipset, while POCO F5 Pro will have Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. Both chipsets are quite powerful.
