POCO F4 GT Gaming phone unveiled

Finally available globally Redmi K50 Gaming Edition, in POCO robes! Yes, a Chinese phone has been renamed again, but now it may have done it some good. The POCO F4 GT differs from the Chinese brother only in design and of course software, but everything else is exactly the same, globalised.

POCO F4 GT price

Compared to the Redmi, the POCO F4 GT is almost unchanged, with a more "pimped" exterior and a more global interior. The JBL speaker has disappeared, replaced by an unnamed one and the mobile frequencies have been adapted to the rest of the world. But the other essential feature of a phone is its price. Let's see how it has changed compared to its Chinese counterpart.

• 8/128 GB - 599€ ~ 224.180 HUF (499€ ~ 186.755 HUF in advance)
• 12/256 GB - 699€ ~ 261.605 Ft (advance purchase 599€ ~ 224.180 Ft)

This compares to the Redmi K50 Gaming Edition 8/128 GB for 162.140 HUF and 12/256 GB for 191.625 HUF, converted from Chinese Juan. You can buy it for about the same price in Eastern online stores with shipping, but it will have neither B20 nor Hungarian language. But at least MIUI would work properly. More on Hungarian prices later, once POCO Hungary has priced it!
