POCO Releases POCO X8s and X8 in Philippines

POCO, a leading tech brand, has recently launched in the Philippines the POCO X8s, the latest addition to POCO X Pro Series. Designed as a compact all-rounder, POCO X8s combines a flagship display, versatile cameras, a large battery, and responsive performance in a body made for comfortable one-handed use. 

 

Effortlessly Light, Brilliantly Vivid

Measuring 8.06mm thick and weighing 187g,¹ POCO X8s brings everyday versatility to a compact design that is easy to hold and carry. A micro-curved aluminum frame and glass back provide a smooth, comfortable feel, while the camera module matches the body color for a clean, unified look. POCO X8s comes in blue, white, and black, with the black colorway featuring a black-and-silver design for a distinctive finish.²

Framed by ultra-thin 1.18mm bezels,¹ the 6.35-inch 1.5K AMOLED display features an M10 display panel with up to 3,500 nits of multi-scenario peak brightness for clear visibility in direct sunlight. Powered by POCO’s first 1–120Hz Adaptive refresh rate Pro, the screen dynamically balances smoother visuals with lower power consumption for longer battery life. Rounding out the display experience are triple TÜV Rheinland eye-care certifications for comfortable viewing during long sessions, along with an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor featuring wet-touch support and press-and-slide enrollment for fast, dependable unlocking.

 

Triple Camera Versatility, Brought Closer

At the heart of POCO X8s’s imaging capabilities is a versatile triple camera system designed to cover every distance, from sweeping landscapes to striking portraits. The main camera features a 50MP Light Fusion 800 image sensor with OIS, capturing clear, detailed shots with enhanced stability. The setup also includes a 50MP 2.5x telephoto camera and an 8MP ultra-wide camera. Live Moment supports up to 1080p, preserving motion with greater clarity and detail.

 

An Elevated Everyday Experience, Powered to Last

Driven by the Snapdragon® 7 Gen 4 Mobile Platform, POCO X8s delivers responsive performance across app launches, multitasking, and entertainment. The POCO 3D IceLoop system keeps thermals in check during intensive tasks, helping sustain performance over time.

Within its compact body, POCO X8s houses a 6,330mAh (typ) battery with 16% silicon content, bringing large battery capacity to a phone designed for comfortable one-handed use. 100W HyperCharge provides fast charging,³ while 22.5W reverse charging allows users to power compatible devices on the go.⁴

For everyday peace of mind, an IP68 dust and water resistance rating helps protect POCO X8s against dust and water exposure,⁵ while dual speakers round out the experience with fuller, more immersive audio.
