Poco X8 Power Hits the Indian Market Accompanied by a Colossal 10,000mAh Battery

Following its highly anticipated global debut earlier this month, Poco has officially released the X8 Power in India. Launching alongside the standard Poco X8, this new mid-range powerhouse is engineered for ultimate endurance, boasting a staggering 10,000mAh battery. The device is now officially available for purchase across the country.

Pricing and Configurations

Targeting the competitive mid-range segment, the Poco X8 Power arrives in two striking colorways: a sleek Black and the brand’s signature vibrant Yellow.

• 8GB RAM / 128GB Storage: INR 35,999 (approx. $375)
• 8GB RAM / 256GB Storage: INR 38,999 (approx. $410)

Visual Brilliance and Unmatched Durability

While the sheer battery capacity is the device’s marquee feature, Poco has ensured the rest of the spec sheet remains highly competitive. The front of the phone is dominated by a 6.83-inch OLED display that delivers a remarkably fluid experience with a 120Hz refresh rate and a crisp 1.5K resolution. Designed to remain highly legible even under direct sunlight, the panel pushes an impressive peak brightness of 3,200 nits and is heavily shielded by premium Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2.

Adding to its rugged appeal, the smartphone boasts a robust IP69K rating, offering the highest standard of protection against dust, high temperatures, and high-pressure water jets.

Performance and Optics

Under the hood, the X8 Power is driven by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 chipset, ensuring reliable daily performance and seamless dual SIM 5G connectivity. Modern wireless standards are fully supported, including Bluetooth 6.0 and Wi-Fi 5.0, alongside a fast in-display fingerprint scanner for biometric security.

For photography, the handset features a streamlined dual-camera array on the rear, consisting of a 50-megapixel primary sensor and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens. A sharp 32-megapixel front-facing camera handles selfies and video calls.

Despite housing a battery large enough to rival power banks, the device keeps charging downtime to a minimum thanks to its blistering 100W wired fast charging capabilities.

Next-Gen Software and AI Integration

On the software front, the Poco X8 Power runs on Xiaomi’s new HyperOS 3, based on the latest Android 16. This updated interface integrates a comprehensive suite of artificial intelligence tools via Xiaomi’s HyperAI ecosystem.

Furthermore, Poco is making a strong commitment to device longevity, promising four years of major OS upgrades and an impressive six years of security patches, ensuring the phone remains secure and up-to-date well into the future.
