In this post, we have listed all of the POCO mobiles that you can currently buy in Nepal with their specs, features, and official price. Recently, the company has revised the prices of a few of its models because of the increase in excise duty.
POCO’s debut in Nepal
POCO is a name that is very popular with smartphone enthusiasts. The company came into the limelight with the introduction of the POCO F1. POCO has released a handful of smartphones since then. Though none of them have been as promising as the F1, POCO still remains the first choice for many users looking for phones because of its aggressive pricing.
If we look at the budget and mid-range segment of the Nepali smartphone market, Xiaomi has made a name for itself because of its aggressive pricing strategy. As of now, it has made devices from the budget Redmi and flagship Mi lineups for the Nepali audience. It even brought the POCO F1 to Nepal when POCO was a sub-brand of Xiaomi. Since the spun-off of POCO as an independent in India, there has been confusion among fans if they see the brand again in Nepal.
POCO officially returned to the Nepalese smartphone industry in 2020 with two phones: POCO C3 and POCO M2. And a few weeks later, POCO X3 debuted in the country as well. Regardless of the spin-off, it seems like Xiaomi and POCO will be under the same leadership here in Nepal. That also means the distribution of POCO smartphones in Nepal will be handled by Vatsal Impex and Teletalk. In terms of their price, all the POCO mobiles that are available today in Nepal are fairly competitive.

Conclusion:
That completes our latest list of POCO mobiles in Nepal, including their price and specs. As mentioned earlier, it re-entered the Nepali market in 2020 and has since launched a good number of phones. This includes budget devices in the C-series, mid-range phones in the X-series, and even flagship offerings like the POCO F3 GT. Pricing has also been pretty competitive so far. However, it still takes months for a device to land in Nepal after its initial launch. So we hope POCO will be quick to make its phones available in the country.
