The series is likely to include the Poco X8 Pro and Poco X8 Pro Max, and the company has now confirmed the chipsets that will power both models.
In a post on X, Poco revealed that the upcoming X Pro series phones will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 and Dimensity 9500s chipsets.

While Poco did not reveal the exact names of the upcoming phones, they are widely expected to be the Poco X8 Pro and Poco X8 Pro Max. The former is tipped to feature the Dimensity 8500 chipset, while the latter will likely be powered by the Dimensity 9500s SoC.
