The POCO F8 Series finally pushes POCO out of the value-only corner and straight into the premium flagship conversation. Launched in Bali, POCO F8 Ultra and F8 Pro arrive with aggressive specs, Sound by Bose tuned speakers, and Xiaomi HyperOS 3, while the new POCO Pad X1 and POCO Pad M1 extend the ecosystem so young power users can game, stream, and work across phone and tablet without feeling short-changed.
POCO F8 Ultra goes all in on performance and sound
At the top of the stack, the POCO F8 Ultra is built like a spec sheet fever dream: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 paired with the VisionBoost D8 chip, smart frame rate up to 120 FPS, and AI Super Resolution tuned for popular titles like COD Mobile and Honkai Star Rail. A 6.9 inch POCO HyperRGB display promises 2K-like sharpness with better efficiency, while a 6500 mAh battery, 100 W HyperCharge, and 50 W wireless charging keep long sessions going. LiquidCool IceLoop takes care of heat, and the triple speaker 2.1 layout with Sound by Bose tech aims to make this one of the few phones where you might not instantly reach for earbuds.
POCO F8 Pro as the everyday flagship driver
Sitting just below Ultra, the POCO F8 Pro keeps most of the series DNA but dials it into a more practical all round flagship profile. You still get the POCO HyperRGB display, now at 6.59 inches with a comfortable 199 g body, IP68 rating, and a metal frame. Inside, Snapdragon 8 Elite is backed by a 6210 mAh battery with 100 W HyperCharge that can top up in well under an hour. POCO also brings a dedicated 50 MP telephoto to the Pro for the first time, with 2.5x portraits and 5x lossless zoom, plus familiar positive and negative film filters on the software side for people who actually edit their shots instead of dumping them straight to social.
POCO Pad X1 and Pad M1 grow the HyperOS playground
While the phones grab the headlines, the POCO Pad X1 and POCO Pad M1 quietly turn this launch into a bigger HyperOS play. Pad X1 targets gamers and multitaskers with a Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 platform, 8 GB RAM and 512 GB storage, a 3.2K 11.2 inch panel up to 144 Hz, quad speakers with Dolby Atmos, and an 8850 mAh battery with 45 W charging. Pad M1 stretches things to a 12.1 inch 2.5K display at up to 120 Hz, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 4, a massive 12000 mAh battery, and seriously loud quad speakers tuned for living room style media binging. Both tablets run Xiaomi HyperOS, so they plug neatly into cross device clipboard, file sharing, and AI assisted productivity.
Premium era without abandoning the POCO attitude
Taken together, F8 Ultra, F8 Pro, Pad X1, and Pad M1 show a brand trying to claim a premium era without losing its spec hunter roots. F8 Ultra is clearly the poster child for mobile gamers and audio nerds, while F8 Pro is more realistic as an everyday flagship for most people. The two pads round out the story for students, creators, and couch gamers who want a bigger screen but the same ecosystem. Pricing and exact on sale dates will vary by region and channel, and POCO is directing buyers to its official channels such as POCO for local details, promos, and configurations.
