Is it any good?
The X8 Pro Max sits at the top of POCO's Indian range, starting at ₹46,999 for 12GB + 256GB and climbing to ₹50,999 for 12GB + 512GB. It is aimed at users wanting flagship MediaTek processing alongside heavy endurance, housing a 9,000 mAh battery with 100W wired charging.
The display is a 6.83-inch 120Hz AMOLED panel reaching 3,500 nits peak brightness, protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2. Unlike the global variant, POCO India omits a telephoto camera here, leaving a 50MP optically stabilised main camera and an 8MP ultrawide sensor for photography.
The catch is the physical footprint: accommodating that 9,000 mAh capacity means a 220g chassis. For ₹4,000 more, the 512GB version doubles storage while retaining four promised operating system upgrades and IP68 water resistance.
