Evidence-based overview

Poco X8 Pro technical sheet

The Poco X8 Pro is built around documented performance and battery capacity. It uses a 4 nm MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Ultra with 12 GB of LPDDR5X RAM, a Mali-G720 MC8 GPU and UFS 4.1 storage up to 512 GB. The available data records 2,074,721 in AnTuTu v11; that benchmark is a technical reference, not a substitute for hands-on everyday testing.

Its 6.59-inch AMOLED display combines a 120 Hz refresh rate with 3,500-nit peak brightness and a 1,268 × 2,756 px resolution. Dolby Vision and HDR10+ are supported. The 6,500 mAh Si-Carbon Li-Ion battery supports 100 W wired charging, 27 W wireless charging and reverse charging, while the documented endurance figure is 66 hours. IP68, IP69 and IP69K protection, along with water resistance to 1.5 m, are also listed specifications.

The 50 MP main camera uses a Sony IMX882 sensor, f/1.5 aperture and optical image stabilisation, and records 4K video at up to 60 fps. An 8 MP ultrawide camera and 20 MP front camera join it, but the main camera has no optical zoom. Dual Nano-SIM, 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 6.0, NFC and stereo speakers round out the feature set. It suits users seeking strong documented hardware, a fast display, a large battery and broad connectivity, provided they can accept non-expandable storage and USB 2.0.

Highlights

  • 1AMOLED 120 Hz display with 3,500-nit peak brightness.
