Why buy the Poco X8 Pro?

The Poco X8 Pro shows you don’t have to spend big to get strong mobile gaming performance. With this model, Xiaomi has concentrated on the areas that matter most to the target audience: the processor, display, battery life, and so on.

Poco X8 Pro performance

To continue this Xiaomi Poco X8 Pro buying guide, let’s start with the chipset. The phone uses MediaTek’s 8500-Ultra, which brings a 25% GPU performance uplift compared with the previous generation (used in the Poco X7 Pro), while also cutting power consumption. Another benefit is hardware-level ray tracing support.

Xiaomi also says the Poco X8 Pro’s AnTuTu score (a performance benchmark) is up by 15.8% compared with its predecessor. On top of that, Xiaomi uses a heat-dissipation technology that can lower the chip temperature by 3 °C, which also helps performance in demanding games and apps. On the software side, the operating system includes WildBoost technology, which further boosts performance. It’s designed to deliver a higher and more stable frame rate in the most resource-hungry games.

Technical specifications

On the display side, the Poco X8 Pro is equipped with a 6.59-inch AMOLED panel, with 1.5K resolution and a 120 Hz refresh rate. Touch sampling reaches 480 Hz, and peak brightness hits 3,500 nits across 25% of the screen area. In short, like its processor, the Poco X8 Pro’s display should provide an excellent gaming experience-even though it’s positioned as an affordable smartphone.

For photography on the rear, there’s a 50-megapixel main sensor plus an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor. Around the front, Xiaomi fits a 20-megapixel camera for selfies.
