Reportedly, POCO M8 will be the rebranded version of Redmi Note 15 5G, and POCO M8 Pro will be the rebranded version of Redmi Note 15 Pro+. However, a recent report revealed that the POCO M8 Pro Indian variant will arrive with a 50MP primary camera (like the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ 5G Chinese variant), while the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ 5G global variant comes with a 200MP main sensor. This indicates that the POCO M8 Pro global variant may arrive with different specs compared to the Indian variant.
Recently, the renders of POCO M8 and POCO M8 Pro also surfaced online. The Poco M8 Pro has already been spotted on multiple certification platforms, including the UAE’s TDRA, the IMEI database, FCC, and IMDA, and the POCO M8 5G model has bagged NBTC, IMDA, BIS, and TDRA certifications.
POCO is expected to soon start teasing more details about the upcoming POCO M8 series and announce its Indian launch date as well.
