POCO, a leading tech brand, has launched the POCO X8s in the Philippines as the latest addition to the POCO X Pro Series. Designed as a compact all-rounder, the POCO X8s combines a flagship display, versatile cameras, a large battery, and responsive performance in a body designed for comfortable one-handed use.
The smartphone features a 6.35-inch 1.5K AMOLED display, a triple camera system, the Snapdragon® 7 Gen 4 Mobile Platform, and a 6,330mAh battery. It also supports 100W HyperCharge and 22.5W reverse charging, bringing together display quality, photography capabilities, performance, and charging features in a compact design.
Effortlessly Light, Brilliantly Vivid
Measuring 8.06mm thick and weighing 187g, the POCO X8s offers a compact design that is easy to hold and carry. Its micro-curved aluminum frame and glass back provide a smooth, comfortable feel, while the camera module matches the body color for a clean, unified appearance. The smartphone comes in blue, white, and black, with the black colorway featuring a black-and-silver design for a distinctive finish.
The POCO X8s features a 6.35-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with ultra-thin 1.18mm bezels. Its M10 display panel delivers up to 3,500 nits of multi-scenario peak brightness for clear visibility in direct sunlight. The display combines its compact dimensions with specifications designed to deliver vivid visuals across different viewing conditions.
The smartphone also introduces POCO’s first 1–120Hz Adaptive refresh rate Pro, which dynamically balances smoother visuals with lower power consumption to support longer battery life. The adaptive refresh rate adjusts the display experience while helping manage power consumption.
For eye comfort, the POCO X8s features triple TÜV Rheinland eye-care certifications for comfortable viewing during long sessions. It also includes an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor with wet-touch support and press-and-slide enrollment for fast, dependable unlocking.

Triple Camera Versatility, Brought Closer
The POCO X8s features a versatile triple camera system designed to cover different shooting distances, from sweeping landscapes to striking portraits. The setup combines a 50MP main camera, a 50MP telephoto camera, and an 8MP ultra-wide camera.
At the center of the system is a 50MP Light Fusion 800 image sensor with optical image stabilization (OIS). The main camera captures clear, detailed shots with enhanced stability. Its OIS technology supports more stable image capture, complementing the sensor’s imaging capabilities.
For subjects that require a closer perspective, the POCO X8s includes a 50MP 2.5x telephoto camera. The dedicated telephoto camera expands the system’s shooting options, while the 8MP ultra-wide camera provides another perspective for capturing broader scenes.
The smartphone also supports Live Moment at resolutions of up to 1080p, preserving motion with greater clarity and detail. Together, the three cameras and Live Moment support give the POCO X8s a range of imaging options for different subjects and scenes.
An Elevated Everyday Experience, Powered to Last
The POCO X8s runs on the Snapdragon® 7 Gen 4 Mobile Platform, delivering responsive performance across app launches, multitasking, and entertainment. To help manage heat during intensive tasks, the smartphone uses the POCO 3D IceLoop cooling system, which helps sustain performance over time.
The device houses a 6,330mAh typical-capacity battery with 16% silicon content. The large battery capacity is accommodated within the POCO X8s’s compact body, maintaining the design’s focus on comfortable one-handed use.
For charging, the POCO X8s supports 100W HyperCharge. It also offers 22.5W reverse charging, allowing compatible devices to receive power while on the go. These features provide charging options for the smartphone and compatible devices.
The POCO X8s also carries an IP68 dust and water resistance rating, helping protect the smartphone against dust and water exposure. Dual speakers complete the device’s features with fuller, more immersive audio.
