POCO X8 Pro series launched and priced in the Philippines

POCO has launched the POCO X8 Pro Series in the Philippines, introducing three models: the POCO X8 Pro Max, POCO X8 Pro, and a special POCO X8 Pro Iron Man Edition. The new phones focus on performance, battery life, and design for everyday users and mobile gamers.

The POCO X8 Pro Max is powered by the Dimensity 9500s chip, while the POCO X8 Pro uses the Dimensity 8500-Ultra. Both phones support smooth gaming, faster response, and better graphics, including hardware-based ray tracing. The devices also use a cooling system to help manage heat during long use.

For battery, the Pro Max comes with an 8,500mAh capacity, while the Pro has 6,500mAh. Both support 100W fast charging and reverse charging. POCO said the batteries are designed to last longer even after years of use.

The phones also feature bright displays with up to 3,500 nits brightness, dual speakers with Dolby Atmos, and durable builds with water and dust resistance. Both models include a 50MP main camera and AI tools for photos and videos.

The Iron Man Edition comes with a custom design inspired by the Marvel character, along with a themed user interface.

POCO said the new series aims to provide strong performance and useful features for users in the Philippines.
