Poco makes an entry at a new price segment

In a month chock-a-block with phone launches to mark the festive season, one brand is taking things sensibly — Poco (an independent brand born out of Xiaomi), which is known for offering specs that punch above price points. This time, the brand moves in the sub-10K segment with Poco C3. Shopping budgets this year will be governed by the pandemic, so most would spend only on gadgets that are important for the entire family.
