Poco X8 Pro Iron Man Edition launches with special packaging

Poco X8 Pro Iron Man Edition joins the global Poco X8 launch

Xiaomi has teamed up with Marvel once again, unveiling a special-edition smartphone - the Poco X8 Pro Iron Man Edition - to coincide with the worldwide release of the Poco X8 range.

It comes in special packaging

The handset is built on the standard Poco X8 Pro, meaning the core specifications remain unchanged: a 6.59-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 120 Hz refresh rate, the Dimensity 8500 Ultra platform, speedy LPDDR5X RAM, and UFS 4.1 storage.

Battery, charging and cameras

It also keeps the same 6500 mAh battery with 100 W charging support, plus a camera setup featuring a 50 MP main sensor, an 8 MP ultra-wide lens, and a 20 MP front-facing camera. The phone is rated IP68 for protection.

Iron Man design, theme and exclusive extras

Where it does differ is the styling. The body comes in a black-and-gold finish inspired by Stark Industries armour, and the interface is enhanced with a custom Iron Man-themed design. The box also includes exclusive accessories that underline the special status of this edition.

Price and available configuration

That design and the added bonuses come at a premium: the Iron Man Edition is priced at $400, which is $100 more than the regular version. It is only offered in a single configuration with 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of flash storage.
