Just after Poco F1’s Rs 5000 discount offer ended on December 6, the company has announced that it is bringing a permanent price cut of Rs 1000 to all the variants of the Xiaomi Poco F1 smartphone. Poco F1 is now available at a starting price of Rs 19,999 on Flipkart, Mi.com and Mi Home stores in the country. The company says that the permanent discount is done to mark its 700k user milestone. In a tweet, Poco India announced, “POCO Fans, the celebrations are on! We're marking the 700K user milestone with the permanent price of ₹1000 off across all variants of #POCOF1! Get the true #MasterOfSpeed exclusively on http://mi.com , @Flipkart and at Mi Home stores.” After this permanent price cut, the 6GB RAM + 64GB storage version of the phone will now be available for Rs 19,999, the 6GB RAM + 128GB storage variant will cost Rs 22,999, the 8GB RAM + 256GB storage version will be priced at Rs 29,999 and the special Armoured edition with 8GB RAM + 256GB storage will cost at Rs 28,999. It is noteworthy that Xiaomi launched this phone at a starting price of Rs 20,999, but later the company increased its prices owing to the depreciating value of the Indian Rupee. In a previous discount sale, the Poco F1 was available at a starting price of Rs 21,999. Given that the Rupee's value is a little more stable now, it seems that Xiaomi has again dropped prices in line with its pledge that its overall hardware net profit margin will never exceed 5 percent.
