POCO X8 Pro Max – Full Leaks, Specs & Expected Global Launch Details

POCO is preparing to expand its popular X-series lineup with two new mid-range devices — the POCO X8 Pro and POCO X8 Pro Max. Recent certification listings and benchmark appearances suggest that the official launch may not be far away.

Multiple leaks now reveal design renders, color options, and detailed specifications, making the POCO X8 Pro Max one of the most talked-about upcoming smartphones in the mid-range category.

The leaked renders show the POCO X8 Pro Max in:

  • Black

  • White

  • Blue

The overall design closely resembles last year’s POCO X7 Pro, maintaining the brand’s signature identity.

Key design highlights:

  • Pill-shaped camera module

  • Dual rear camera setup

  • Slim bezels

  • Centered punch-hole display

One noticeable difference between the Pro and Pro Max models is the flash system. The Max variant is expected to feature a dual LED flash, while the standard Pro may include a single LED unit.

POCO X8 Pro Max Specifications (Expected)

The POCO X8 Pro Max is rumored to pack serious hardware upgrades.

Display

  • 6.83-inch 1.5K OLED

  • 120Hz refresh rate

  • High brightness output

Processor

  • MediaTek Dimensity 9500s

  • LPDDR5x RAM

  • UFS 4.1 storage

This configuration suggests flagship-level performance in a mid-range body.

Camera Setup

  • 50MP main sensor with OIS

  • 8MP ultra-wide

  • 20MP front camera

Battery & Charging

Battery leaks vary, but capacity is expected to exceed 8000mAh.

Some reports even mention an 8,500mAh battery with 100W fast charging, though global variants may slightly reduce capacity due to regulatory limits.

Additional features may include:

  • Wi-Fi 7

  • Bluetooth 5.4

  • Dual stereo speakers

  • Ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor

  • IP68 & IP69 water resistance

POCO X8 Pro Specifications (Expected)

The standard POCO X8 Pro will likely be slightly smaller but still powerful.

  • 6.59-inch 1.5K OLED

  • 120Hz refresh rate

Camera

  • 50MP Sony IMX882 main sensor with OIS

Battery

  • 6,500mAh

  • 100W wired charging

  • Reverse charging support

Both devices are expected to ship with:

  • Android 16

  • HyperOS 3

Global Version of Redmi Turbo 5 Series?

Leaks suggest that both POCO models are essentially global versions of:

  • Redmi Turbo 5

  • Redmi Turbo 5 Max

This strategy follows POCO’s usual approach of rebranding Redmi models for international markets.

However, battery capacity may be slightly adjusted for global compliance rules.

Expected Launch Timeline

Although no official launch date has been announced, frequent leaks, certifications, and renders indicate that the launch could happen soon.

Given POCO’s track record, the devices may debut first in Asian markets before expanding globally.
