The brand’s General Manager C Manmohan tweeted about the announcement. He shared a banner regarding the declaration, quoting, “Keeping the promise of making the best even better!”. As of now, Poco X2 carries the latest Android 10, which is widely available in most of the devices. Earlier, the Pocophone F1 from a sub-brand of Xiaomi was a huge success among Indian users.

Release Date
At present, the company has not announced a timeline other than promising an Android 11 software update for X2. But, soon, we will get more clarity on that in the coming months. Currently, Android 11 stable and beta versions are rolling out to all eligible devices (specifically OEM’s flagship devices) through an OTA for easier public install. Poco F2 Pro users have also reportedly started getting the taste of Android 11 beta.
Now, a tweet from Poco India suggests that the company will open the Android 11 beta program for Poco X2 users. However, Poco X2 users will have to wait for a couple of months, probably till December 2020, for a stable Android 11 update based on MIUI 12. Currently, Poco has started pushing out MIUI 12 update (Android 10 Based) for Poco X2.

The Poco X2 is nothing but the Indian version of China’s Redmi K30 4G, which was launched in December 2019. The specifications and features are the same as the Redmi K30. The X2 is presently available at Rs.17,499.
The device comes with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 730G SoC, which is coupled with 8GB of LPDDRX RAM. The internal storage is expandable up to 256GB with the feature of UFS 2.1.
