The POCO X8s has received approval from Thailand’s NBTC, confirming the phone’s name and suggesting that its launch could be getting closer. The device has also appeared on other certification platforms, including Singapore’s IMDA and Europe’s EEC.
The NBTC listing identifies the phone by model number 2609CPC5FG. It does not reveal its hardware, but earlier leaks have offered a few clues about what POCO may be preparing.
Summary
- The POCO X8s has received NBTC certification in Thailand, bringing its launch closer.
- The phone has also appeared on Singapore’s IMDA and Europe’s EEC certification platforms.
- A Geekbench listing points to a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chip, 12GB of RAM and Android 16.
- The device is tipped to feature a 50MP main camera, but its other specifications remain unknown.
- A global launch is expected, with Europe among the potential markets, although POCO has yet to confirm the release date.
Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 and 12GB RAM
A previous Geekbench listing reportedly showed the POCO X8s with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor, 12GB of RAM and Android 16. If these details prove accurate, the phone could target the upper mid-range market.
The same report points to a 50MP main camera. However, we still do not know the screen size, battery capacity, charging speed or full camera setup.
I would not draw too many conclusions from the early benchmark details alone. The processor and memory look promising, but the display, battery and final price will help determine whether the X8s stands out from other mid-range phones.
Which markets will get the POCO X8s?
The certification trail suggests that POCO is preparing the phone for international markets. Reports point to a possible release in the European Economic Area, Turkey and Russia, while India may miss out.
The Chinese version is reportedly linked to the model number M583CF. However, POCO has not confirmed the phone’s regional availability or launch date.
Launch could be getting closer
Multiple certifications often appear as a phone moves through the steps needed for release. The POCO X8s has now cleared several of these checks, but that does not confirm exactly when it will go on sale.
For now, the name is confirmed, while most of the specifications remain unverified. The Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 and 50MP camera are worth watching, but we will need more details before judging the phone’s potential.
