A new Poco C-series phone is coming next week

A new Poco C-series phone is coming next week There’s a new Poco phone on the way – the brand tweeted a teasing “C U soon” message with the date September 30 attached (next Thursday). And while the brand doesn’t have a U-series (yet), it definitely has a C-series.
