A dedicated microsite for the launch is already live on Flipkart, indicating that the handset will be sold via the e-commerce platform.

In terms of hardware, previous reports suggest that the Poco M7 Plus 5G will likely sport a 6.9-inch display with a 144Hz refresh rate. It is anticipated to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 chipset. On the camera front, the device is expected to house a dual rear camera setup, with a 50MP primary sensor, while an 8MP front-facing camera is anticipated for selfies and video calls.

Speaking of the battery, it is expected to deliver up to 12 hours of navigation, 24 hours of video playback, 27 hours of social media use, and up to 144 hours of offline music playback on a single charge, as per previous leaks.
