The POCO X8 Pro 5G sits just below the Max, keeping the same 50 MP Sony IMX882 main camera with optical image stabilisation and 4K 60 fps video while switching to the Dimensity 8500 Ultra chipset and a 6500 mAh battery with 100W fast charging. Its 6.59-inch OLED display peaks at 3500 nits with Gorilla Glass 7i protection, and the 20 MP front camera records Full HD video at 60 fps. At ₹41,999, this page prices the 12 GB + 256 GB variant because the cheaper 8 GB + 256 GB base is out of stock — a step up in RAM that partly explains the price.
