NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The Xiaomi Poco X8 Pro is the stronger pick for performance: its Dimensity 8500 Ultra, 12 GB of RAM, and UFS 4.1 storage outpace the Poco X8 Power's Snapdragon 6 Gen 5, 8 GB, and UFS 2.2. The Power instead targets buyers who want a much larger battery and Wi-Fi 7.

The Power also has the larger display at 6.83″, versus 6.59″ on the Pro. The Pro weighs less, at 201.5 g versus 229 g, and promises five years of OS updates rather than four. Both share a 120 Hz AMOLED display, 3500-nit peak brightness, and 100 W charging.

The Poco X8 Power packs a 10,000 mAh battery against 6500 mAh in the Pro, along with Wi-Fi 7 and eSIM support. The Pro records video up to 4K at 60 fps and slow motion at 960 fps; the Power has a 32 MP front camera versus 20 MP. The choice is performance and lower weight or a larger battery, screen, and newer connectivity.
