The standard X8, meanwhile, is expected to carry a 9,000mAh battery, larger than even the existing X8 Pro and X8 Pro Max, suggesting POCO’s real pitch here is battery life over raw performance.

#### Where This Slots Into POCO’s Lineup

The X8 Pro currently retails around ₹39,999 and the X8 Pro Max around ₹49,999 in India, leaving a clear gap under ₹35,000 for the new X8 and X8 Power to fill. This positions the duo as accessible options built around battery endurance and durability rather than flagship-level chips.
