Unfortunately, there’s nothing else that the certification reveals. However, the device also made it to BIS and IMEI certification. The former hints that the device could be getting ready for the India launch alongside the global unveiling.

As for its specs, there are a few vague details that we know. The Poco X5 GT is expected to be a rebranded Redmi Note 12 Turbo. The Redmi Note 12 Turbo is yet to launch and it will be China-exclusive.

This suggests that the Poco X5 GT will be kept for the European and other Asian markets. If the rebranded thing is to be believed, the X5 GT will come with an entirely new chipset.

The smartphone could come powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 chipset. Poco could offer at least 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage.

As for the display, the device could feature a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with an FHD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. It may have a triple camera system on the back with a 50MP main lens. The main lens could be assisted by an ultra-wide lens and a macro camera.

The Redmi Note 12 Turbo is expected to pack a massive 5,500mAh battery, which means the Poco X5 GT could also come with the same size of the battery. There’s no information on the fast charging support, but we should learn about it soon.
