The first POCO X phone with a telephoto camera

The POCO X8s camera module, with the telephoto lens.

The X8s adds a 50 MP telephoto with 2.5x optical zoom, which no earlier X-series phone has offered. The POCO X8 Pro in our database has only a 50 MP main and an 8 MP ultrawide, so the X8s is the better pick for portraits and mid-range zoom. The X8 Pro, in turn, has a bigger 6,500 mAh battery, a 6.6-inch display and the Dimensity 7200 Ultra.

Is the POCO X8s coming to India?

We have no Indian launch date or price for the X8s. For reference, our database lists the POCO X8 Pro at ₹38,999 in India. European pricing often runs higher than Indian pricing for the same phone, so the euro figures here should not be converted directly into a rupee price. We would wait for POCO India to announce it.
