Collaborations between movies and tech brands are commonplace these days, so we’re not entirely surprised that this awesome Poco F6 Deadpool and Wolverine edition smartphone is on the horizon. However, we’ll gladly marvel at its crimson red beauty as Poco country head Himanshu Tandon shows off the device for us all to enjoy.
Following a series of initial leaks for the upcoming 5G phone, Tandon displays the vibrant Deadpool iteration of the Poco F6 on social media. “Two days until the mayhem begins! Get ready for the ultimate clash of wit, charm, and claws,” Tandon expresses as Deadpool and Wolverine are set to hit the big screen on Thursday, July 25, 2024. Curiously, the Android phone depicted in Tandon’s post specifically marks it down as a Deadpool-specific release, rather than listing the name of the MCU movie as the model’s name.
It might seem like an obvious call, but to us, this all-but-confirms a dazzling Wolverine model to accompany the merc with a mouth. Of course, we’ll have to wait for Poco to confirm that, but you can’t have Deadpool without his favorite X-Men legend, can you? If you need a refresher on the smartphone, we’ve got a little rundown of what it is packing under the red hood.
The Poco F6 also sports a solid 20MP front camera, and a 50MP main and 8MP ultra-wide camera on the back respectively, which if you don’t know, is a pretty fantastic camera setup for a mid-range phone. You can read our F6 Poco review for a comprehensive breakdown of how it holds up in day-to-day life.
It is unknown whether this is a limited-edition run of the Poco F6, but given that it is a particularly special design, we’re expecting quantities of this smartphone to be highly limited.
It isn’t the first time that Marvel has collaborated with tech giants on smartphone designs. You may remember the Oppo F11 Avengers collaboration from 2019 or the awesome Iron Man design that graced the Avengers: Age of Ultron iteration of the Samsung Galaxy S6. This could be a must-have addition if you’re a Marvel fanatic, but let’s just hope Wolverine gets his time to shine too.
Unfortunately, we’re not currently sure how we’ll be able to get our hands on the special Deadpool Poco phone, as it isn’t clear if it’s getting a global release. With that in mind, you might have to check out our picks for the best iPhone cases and Samsung Galaxy S24 cases to see if there’s any design that tickles your fancy as much as Deadpool does.
