POCO has officially launched the new POCO X8s, which is distinguished by its compact dimensions and unusually capacious battery. The phone is equipped with a 6.35-inch AMOLED display, Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor, 6330 mAh battery and 100W fast charging. The new model has already been introduced to the global market, and pre-order prices start at $ 399.
The POCO X8s has a 6.35-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a resolution of 2656 × 1220 pixels, an adaptive refresh rate of 1-120 Hz, and a peak brightness of up to 3500 nits. The display bezels are just 1.18 mm wide, and the phone itself weighs 187 g and is 8.06 mm thick. The body has an aluminum frame and IP68 water and dust resistance certification.
The 4 nm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor is responsible for performance, and the POCO 3D IceLoop system is used for cooling. Buyers can choose 8 GB of RAM with 256 GB of storage or 12 GB of RAM with 512 GB of storage. However, the manufacturer uses LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 2.2 internal memory, the speed of which is inferior to newer standards.
The rear features a triple camera system with a 50 MP main camera with a 1/1.55-inch Light Fusion 800 sensor and optical image stabilization (OIS). It is complemented by a 50 MP telephoto lens with 2.5x optical zoom and an 8 MP ultra-wide-angle camera. The front features a 20 MP camera, and the main camera can record 4K video at 30 frames per second.
One of the biggest advantages of the POCO X8s is its 6,330 mAh silicon-carbon battery, which supports 100W fast charging. According to the manufacturer, it can provide more than 24 hours of video playback, and after 1,600 charging cycles, it should retain at least 80% of its original capacity. It also supports up to 22.5W wired reverse charging, allowing you to charge other compatible devices.
The phone is equipped with the Xiaomi HyperOS 3 operating system, stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner in the screen, NFC, Bluetooth 5.4 and Wi-Fi 6E support. Depending on the region, eSIM can also be used, and the official frequency list includes 4G B20/B28 and 5G n28/n78 frequencies relevant for Lithuania.
