Poco officially confirms the global launch date for its flagship F8 series. Arriving on November 27, the Poco F8 Pro and F8 Ultra promise cutting-edge Snapdragon performance alongside a completely redesigned acoustic system for enhanced gaming and multimedia experiences.
After weeks of speculation about a December debut, Poco Hong Kong's official promotional poster ends all rumors. The November 27 global launch event will unveil both the F8 Pro and F8 Ultra, continuing the brand's tradition of delivering flagship performance at competitive prices.
The F8 series introduces a completely new acoustic design -- a first for Poco's flagship lineup. This upgrade aims to deliver smoother, more immersive gaming and multimedia experiences directly through the device speakers, eliminating the need for external audio accessories during intense gaming sessions.
Poco F8 Pro: Elite-Tier Gaming Powered by Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, the F8 Pro targets hardcore mobile gamers and power users demanding flagship performance. This processor ensures smooth gameplay, rapid multitasking, and efficient power management for extended usage.
Poco F8 Ultra: Ultimate Performance The Ultra variant features Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 -- the latest and most powerful mobile chipset available. This bleeding-edge processor positions the F8 Ultra among the most powerful smartphones globally, competing directly with premium flagships at Poco's signature value pricing.
Following Poco's typical approach, the F8 series reportedly rebrands China-exclusive Redmi K90 and K90 Pro Max models for global markets. However, rumors suggest smaller battery capacities compared to Chinese counterparts -- a potential compromise for international variants.
The standard Poco F8 may launch later as a rebranded Redmi Turbo 5 Pro. Additionally, Poco is developing the Pad M1 tablet, likely a rebranded Redmi Pad 2 Pro.
