Poco F4 has supposedly been spotted on the IMEI database. The alleged listing does not mention the name of the smartphone, instead, it includes the model number 22021211RI, which is expected to be linked with the rumoured Poco F4. This model number includes the letter 'I' at the end suggesting that this Poco F4 variant could be intended for the Indian market. In related developments, the global model of the Poco F4 has also surfaced on the Geekbench database and the FCC certifications site.

As previously mentioned, tipster Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) has purportedly spotted the Indian model of the Poco F4 on the IMEI database, which might point towards an imminent launch in India. The Xiaomi-owned smartphone brand has already released the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC-powered Poco F4 GT in Europe. The rumoured Poco F4 is expected to be less powerful than the Poco F4 GT.
