The POCO X8s is POCO's compact option in the X8 line: instead of following the large-screen trend, it uses a 6.35-inch display with 1.5K resolution, an adaptive 1 to 120 Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of up to 3,500 nits. It also has symmetrical 1.18 mm bezels, a gently curved aluminium frame and IP68 dust and water resistance.
Performance comes from the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, built on a 4 nm process and clocked at up to 2.8 GHz, paired with 8 GB or 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB or 512 GB of storage. It runs HyperOS 3, based on Android 16, and uses POCO's 3D IceLoop cooling system with a 4,497 mm² dissipation surface.
The rear camera system combines a 50 MP Light Fusion 800 main sensor with optical stabilisation, a 50 MP telephoto camera with 2.5x optical zoom and an 8 MP ultra-wide camera. The front camera sits in a centred punch-hole in the display.
Despite its compact size, the phone has a 6,330 mAh silicon-carbon battery, 100 W wired HyperCharge charging and up to 22.5 W wired reverse charging. It measures 151.1 x 71.8 x 8.06 mm and weighs 187 grams.
In Vietnam, the first market in the official listing, the POCO X8s is on pre-order in white, blue and black, with list prices of VND 11,500,000 for 8 GB + 256 GB and VND 14,000,000 for 12 GB + 512 GB.
