Xiaomi is preparing to expand its Poco lineup with the launch of the Poco M8, scheduled for January 8. The company says the new smartphone targets younger users who want strong performance paired with a bold visual identity.
According to Xiaomi, the Poco M8 adopts a design-first strategy aimed at refreshing the mid-range smartphone market. The brand describes the phone as built for a new generation that values both speed and standout aesthetics. This approach signals Poco’s focus on style alongside everyday usability.
While Poco has not shared the full specifications, it confirmed key design details. The Poco M8 measures just 7.35 mm in thickness and weighs 178 g. These figures make it the slimmest and lightest smartphone in its segment, according to the company.
An official image shared by Poco offers an early look at the device. The phone features a curved display and a squircle-shaped camera module on the back. The primary camera uses a 50MP sensor, although Poco has not disclosed further camera details.
Poco says the M8 aims to reset expectations for design and durability in its category. More information will be revealed at launch, when the company fully outlines what the Poco M8 brings to the table.
