Poco is gearing up to launch the highly anticipated X8 Pro series, including the Poco X8 Pro and X8 Pro Max, delivering flagship-like performance at aggressive prices. Leaks reveal impressive specs tailored for gamers and power users in India.
Key Specifications
The Poco X8 Pro features a MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Ultra chipset, a 6.59-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate, and a massive 7560mAh battery supporting 100W fast charging. Its camera setup includes a 50MP Sony IMX882 main sensor, 8MP ultrawide, and 20MP selfie camera.
The Poco X8 Pro Max steps it up with a Dimensity 9500s processor, a 6.75-inch TCL M10 OLED panel hitting 2000 nits brightness, and dual flash for better photography. Both run HyperOS 3 on Android 16 with IP69 rating for durability.
