The Poco F1 arrived in August 2018 and even after a year now continues to offer unmatched value for what it packs. The phone which normally retails at a price of Rs 19,999 has now received yet another price cut in India — selling for Rs 17.999.
This price cut isn’t permanent, even though the launch of the Redmi K20 Pro appears imminent. The POCO India team took to its official Twitter handle to announce that the base 6 GB RAM + 64 GB storage variant of the POCO F1 is now retailing for Rs 17,999 on both mi.com and Flipkart.
The Xiaomi backed brand though does note that this price reduction is part of a promotional sale which ends on 9 June.

Upon checking both Flipkart and Mi.com websites, it is worth mentioning that the base variant of POCO F1 (review) is currently available only in two colours — Steel Blue and Rosso Red. Buying the phone on Flipkart could turn out even more beneficial as the e-commerce site is offering a no-cost EMI option, exchange offer, and 5 percent instant discount for Axis Bank Buzz Credit Card users.
