Expected Price: 

While the official pricing of the Poco X6 series will only be available after its launch in India, a calculated guess would be to convert the Chinese price of these smartphones into rupees to get an estimated price range for them.

The Redmi K70e is priced at CNY 1,999 in China for the 12GB RAM/256GB storage variant, which translates to roughly ₹23,000.
