The upcoming Poco C85 5G is set to make its way to the Indian market soon, as the brand has officially begun teasing the device across its platforms. A dedicated page for the smartphone has gone live on Flipkart, confirming that the handset will be available for purchase through the popular e-commerce marketplace. The teaser also showcases a stylish purple variant, giving users their first glimpse of the phone’s design.
The Poco C85 5G will feature a dual rear camera system housed inside a square camera module positioned on the upper-left section of the back panel. The highlight of the setup is a 50-megapixel AI primary camera, which the company has promoted as one of the main attractions of the device. While the brand has not yet confirmed the exact launch date, more details are expected to be revealed shortly.
Recent sightings of the Poco C85 5G on the Google Play Console have strengthened expectations around its specifications. The device, reportedly carrying the model number 2508CPC2BI and internally code-named tornado, is tipped to run on an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ processor. The chipset is said to include two Cortex-A76 cores clocked at 2.20GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores running at 2.00GHz, suggesting a balance between power efficiency and performance.
The listing further hints that the Poco C85 5G may launch with 4GB of RAM and Android 16 out of the box. It is also expected to sport a 720×1,600 resolution display, paired with a waterdrop-style notch that may house the front camera. Physical buttons, such as the power key and volume controls, are likely positioned on the right side of the handset.
Globally, the Poco C85 debuted earlier this year with a 6.9-inch display offering a 120Hz refresh rate, 240Hz touch sampling rate, and 83% NTSC colour gamut. The international model is powered by the MediaTek Helio G81-Ultra chipset, though the Indian 5G version is expected to arrive with updated hardware suited for the region.
More information related to the Indian launch date, pricing, and complete specifications is expected to be officially announced by Poco in the coming days.
