TL;DR

• POCO has launched the POCO F8 series in global markets.
• The POCO F8 Ultra comes with a rear Bose-branded subwoofer and is available in a Denim Blue variant with a denim-like appearance.
• The Ultra phone otherwise offers a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, a 6,500mAh battery, and a 50MP 5x periscope camera.

Xiaomi-affiliated POCO has been upping its game in recent years, and the POCO F7 Ultra was the firm’s first Ultra device. Now, POCO is back with the POCO F8 series, which consists of Pro and Ultra handsets.

The POCO F8 Pro and Ultra are effectively rebranded, global versions of the China-only Redmi K90 and Redmi K90 Pro Max. The Pro and Ultra devices only have a few things in common, though. Expect the handsets to offer 100W wired charging speeds, an IP68 rating, an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, the same display brightness figures, and the Hyper OS 3 skin. Both phones also get four major Android OS upgrades and six years of security patches. However, it’s clear that the Ultra handset is the standout offering here, and not just because of the traditional spec sheet.
