The POCO C3 will have a triple rear camera setup with a 13MP primary camera, a secondary depth sensor and a third camera which will be a macro lens. The device will have a waterdrop notch on the display that will house the selfie camera. It will sport a rear fingerprint scanner with support for AI Facial Unlock. From what we know from the teaser, the device will have a micro USB port for charging. We still don’t have any more confirmations about the upcoming device and will keep you updated with the official Indian launch, so stay tuned.
