What's actually, interesting, however, is that an Easter Egg within the video might very well have confirmed recent reports that the next-generation Poco smartphone volition exist named Poco X2. Every bit tin can been seen from the tweet below by series tipster, @Xiaomishka, the characters 'Ten' and '2' are highlighted in a list shown in the video, only are strewn around randomly on the screen.
