POCO X8 Power 5G Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![Dhruv Joshi]()
Verdict
The POCO X8 Power is an excellent choice for users who prioritise battery life, with its 10,000mAh cell comfortably lasting around two days. It also offers a vibrant AMOLED display, reliable performance, durable build and long-term software support. The cameras and software are areas that could be better, but overall, it offers plenty of value beyond its massive battery.
Pros
- Around 2 days of battery
- Bright, vibrant AMOLED display
- Excellent build quality
- Reliable performance
Cons
- Lots of pre-installed apps
- Ultrawide camera needs improvement
- Slightly bulky
Design: doesn't feel like a power bank at all
+
The POCO X8 Power is a slightly heavy but well-balanced phone that manages its massive battery without becoming too unwieldy. Its design is fairly basic, but the good build, IP69K protection and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 give it excellent durability for a mid-range smartphone.

Battery: fulfils its promise
+
The 10,000mAh battery comfortably delivers around two days of use, with excellent streaming and gaming performance. The 100W charger takes around 80 minutes to fully charge the phone from 20 percent, making the X8 Power a good choice for users who prioritise long-lasting battery life.

Display: as good as it gets
+
The POCO X8 Power's 6.83-inch 1.5K AMOLED display is vibrant, sharp and well suited to both gaming and content. HDR10+ and Dolby Vision add to the viewing experience, while the stereo speakers work well. That said, the 400 percent audio boost can adversely affect sound quality.

Cameras: surprisingly capable in most situations
+
The POCO X8 Power's camera setup is rather capable for everyday use, with the 50MP primary camera delivering good daylight shots and surprisingly strong low-light performance. The 8MP ultrawide sees a big drop in detail, while the selfie camera's aggressive beautification may not appeal to everyone.
Read More
Performance: sufficient output for most tasks
+
The Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 delivers more than enough performance for everyday use, with smooth app handling and decent gaming. Demanding games can maintain 60fps on lower settings, while thermals remain reasonable, with around a 5-degree increase after 30 minutes of gaming.
Read More
Software: capable but riddled with pre-installed apps
+
HyperOS 3 offers plenty of features and AI tools, but with 83 pre-installed apps, it creates unnecessary clutter out of the box. Most can be removed, although cleaning everything up takes time. The four-year OS and six-year security patch commitment, however, is a welcome addition.

What is the competition like?
+
The POCO X8 Power's chief competitors are undoubtedly the Realme P4s and iQOO Z11 5G. Both phones carry a starting price of Rs 34,999 to compete closely with the X8 Power. The Realme P4s (review) is a gaming-focused smartphone with a similarly high-quality AMOLED panel, an 8,000mAh battery and slightly better cameras. However, it doesn't match the X8 Power's battery life or software support promise. The Realme P4s is ideal if you play a lot of games and want a good battery life phone that is still somewhat handier.
