I have covered the Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro quite a bit in the past, it is the cheapest flagship spec phone on the market, undercutting the superb Realme X50 Pro.
The phone is a rebadged Redmi K30 Pro which has received outstanding reviews from both users and critics alike.
Xiaomi officially launched the Poco F2 Pro in Europe last month. However, that was on GearBest which is less than ideal due to potential issues with warranty claims.
It is now also available on Amazon Spain with an RRP of €499 and it currently being available a touch cheaper at just €478.00 + €4.65 delivery (€482.65). This would work out as £436.86
In the UK, Xiaomi/Poco have not launched the base model on their site yet but instead the 8GB RAM and 256GB model has launched. In Spain, they only seem to have the 6GB/128GB option. No idea why they have done it this way.
The official RRP is £549, but the phone is available on an early bird option for £499 until the 23rd of June, you can then get a further £20 off with voucher code: POCOF2PRO. This sale will also include double points so customers will get 200 points for every £100 spent.
It looks like the 6GB/128GB model is on Amazon UK though (yes it is confusing). This is currently at £475 so the above deal is great if you can pick it up before it expires.
