Poco M8x 5G Goes On Sale With 7900mAh Battery And 50MP Camera

Poco has started selling its latest M8x 5G smartphone in India, giving buyers access to a device focused heavily on battery life and everyday performance. The handset was introduced in the country last week and is now available through Flipkart.

The phone stands out mainly for its 7900mAh battery, which Poco says can deliver up to three days of usage on a single charge under suitable conditions. It also supports 45W fast charging and 22.5W reverse charging, allowing the handset to be used as a power source for compatible devices.

The M8x 5G is available in Blue, Leather Green and Black finishes. Its design includes a vegan leather rear panel, a golden camera decoration and a metallic finish frame, giving the phone a more premium appearance than its price segment might suggest.

Price And Storage Options

The Poco M8x 5G is now being sold on Flipkart. The supplied information lists a 4GB RAM with 128GB storage variant at Rs 20,999 and another variant at Rs 22,999. The available storage configuration should be checked on the retailer page before purchasing because the listing details may vary.

Poco has positioned the handset as a value focused 5G smartphone, with the combination of a large battery, high refresh rate screen and Snapdragon chipset aimed at users who want a phone for extended daily use.

Large 6.9 Inch Display With 120Hz Refresh Rate

The smartphone comes with a 6.9 inch HD Plus display supporting a 120Hz refresh rate. This should make scrolling through applications and supported content feel smoother compared with conventional 60Hz panels.

The screen is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i. Poco has also included Wet Touch Technology 2.0, which is designed to improve touch responsiveness when the display is being used with wet fingers.

For additional protection, the handset carries an IP64 rating against dust and water splashes.

Snapdragon Processor And Cooling System

Powering the Poco M8x 5G is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 processor. The phone comes with LPDDR4X RAM, with the supplied specifications mentioning 6GB of physical RAM that can be expanded virtually up to 12GB.

The handset also uses UFS 2.2 storage and includes a triple cooling system. These additions are intended to help maintain performance during longer periods of use, particularly when the phone is handling demanding applications.

The software experience is based on Android 16 with Xiaomi HyperOS. Poco says the device will receive four generations of Android updates along with six years of software support.

50MP Camera Leads The Rear Setup

Photography is handled by a 50 megapixel AI assisted dual camera system on the rear. The setup is aimed at everyday photography, including regular daylight shots and social media content.

For selfies and video calls, the M8x 5G has an 8 megapixel front camera with 2x in sensor zoom support.

Battery Is The Main Highlight

The biggest talking point of the Poco M8x 5G is clearly its 7900mAh battery. Poco claims that the large capacity can provide up to three days of battery life, although actual endurance will depend on factors such as network connectivity, screen brightness and usage patterns.

The 45W charging support should also help reduce the time required to recharge the battery. Reverse charging at up to 22.5W adds another practical feature for users who occasionally need to power compatible accessories or other devices.

Overall, the Poco M8x 5G combines a large battery with a 120Hz display, Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 processor and 50 megapixel camera. Its current pricing and feature mix put it firmly in the budget conscious 5G smartphone category, while the long battery life could be its biggest attraction for heavy users.
