Poco X8 Pro and X8 Pro Max are launching this month in India
Poco X8 Pro series is finally confirmed to launch in India and it will happen in less than a week from now. The company announced the Poco X8 Pro and Poco X8 Pro Max models globally earlier and we should be seeing the same devices launched in India as well.
Poco India is also bringing a special Iron Man Edition of the Poco X8 Pro for buyers but mostly you are looking at two devices with familiar focus on performance, durability and endurance which seems to be the pitch for most brands this year.
Poco X8 Pro Series India Launch: More Details
Poco has teased the X8 Pro launch details which in India is confirmed for March 17 and it will be going on sale online in the country. The Xiaomi sub-brand is looking to continue its X-series impetus in the market and the X8 Pro with the X8 Pro Max could be solid yet much more pricier additions this year.
Poco is using the higher end MediaTek Dimensity chipsets to power the X8 Pro series, which should give them the right performance boost. The Pro Max version is tipped to pack a gigantic 9,000mAh battery while the X8 Pro comes with a 6,500mAh unit.
Having this hardware and improved camera system is likely to get Poco to price these X8 Pro models at a higher price this year. According to tipsters, the Poco X8 Pro price in India could start at around Rs 35,000 while the X8 Pro Max cost over Rs 40,000 in the market.
It is hardly surprising to see Poco X8 Pro launch at higher prices and that has been a trend with many other brands with some of them even taking a hit on the hardware to offset the higher memory prices.
Poco’s parent company has recently launched the Xiaomi 17 series in the Indian market which also includes the premium Xiaomi 17 Ultra model. Industry analysts are concerned about the high price impact on the market, especially in India where the budget phone segment could be the worst affected.
