Poco X8 Pro Specs Leak Ahead of Global Launch; 6500mAh Battery Revealed
Poco X8 Pro Series Expected to Launch Soon, Key Specs Leak Online
Poco is preparing to launch its next mid range smartphone lineup which is expected to arrive as the Poco X8 series. Reports suggest the new range may include two models called the Poco X8 Pro and Poco X8 Pro Max. Ahead of the official announcement, leaked unboxing images have revealed several important details about the Poco X8 Pro. A possible global launch timeline has also surfaced through recent leaks.
Poco Likely to Follow Last Year’s X Series
The upcoming Poco X8 lineup is expected to replace last year’s Poco X7 series. Xiaomi recently introduced its flagship Xiaomi 17 and 17 Ultra models in global markets where attention now appears to be shifting towards Poco’s mid segment devices. While Poco has teased the arrival of a new smartphone series, the company has not yet confirmed launch dates or full specifications.
Display and Performance Details Revealed
According to leaked retail box images shared online, the Poco X8 Pro may feature a 6.59 inch AMOLED display which supports 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. A smoother screen experience is expected during scrolling, gaming and video playback.
The device is tipped to run on the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Ultra processor which is likely aimed at delivering stable performance for gaming as well as everyday tasks.
Battery and Camera Expectations
The leaked information also points to a large 6500mAh battery which could support 100W fast charging. A bigger battery usually helps users who spend long hours on streaming, gaming or travel without frequent charging.
For photography, the Poco X8 Pro is expected to include a 50MP main rear camera with optical image stabilisation which helps reduce blur during photos and videos.
Possible Global Launch Timeline
The same source claims that the Poco X8 series may launch globally around March 14, although official confirmation from Poco is still awaited.
Reports also suggest that the Poco X8 Pro and Poco X8 Pro Max could be rebranded versions of the Redmi Turbo 5 and Turbo 5 Max which were earlier introduced in China. Earlier leaks have already shown the phones in multiple colour options. More details are expected to be announced closer to the official launch event.
