Poco has introduced two new smartphones in its X8 series in India, with one model clearly aimed at users who prioritize battery endurance.
The Poco X8 Power stands out with a 10,000mAh silicon-carbon cell, one of the largest batteries found in a mainstream phone.
It supports 100W HyperCharge for fast top-ups and can reverse-charge other devices at up to 27W over a wired connection.
The large battery adds some bulk: the phone weighs 229g and measures 8.65mm thick.
For comparison, the Poco X7 has a 5,500mAh battery, is 8.4mm thick, and weighs 190g.
The X8 Power features a 6.83-inch flat 1.5K AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and peak brightness up to 3,500 nits.
The screen supports up to 3,200Hz instantaneous touch sampling in Game Turbo mode, Wet Touch 2.0, and TUV Triple Eye Protection, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2.
Under the hood, the phone is powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 chipset, paired with up to 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256GB of storage.
Base models with 128GB storage use UFS 2.2, while higher variants get faster UFS 4.1.
Other features include a 32MP front camera, stereo speakers, and an in-display fingerprint sensor.
The device carries IP66, IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings for ingress protection.
It runs Xiaomi HyperOS 3 based on Android 16, with four OS upgrades and six years of security patches promised.
