The Poco F8 Pro has just picked up its NBTC certification ahead of its launch in Thailand. But while that means the release is near, a new leak suggests something less exciting — the phone might skip a charging accessory in the box.
Word for this comes from tipster Abhishek Yadav on X, who claims the Poco F8 Pro will not include a charging brick. However, it’s not entirely new for Poco. The Poco X7 Pro and F7 also shipped without chargers in Europe, so this could be another region-specific move.
Yadav also shared an image of part of the retail box showing a “Sound by Bose” logo. That’s interesting because Xiaomi’s new Redmi K90 series carries the same branding.
Bose branding hints at Redmi K90 rebrand
Given Poco’s long history of rebadging Redmi’s K-series phones for global markets, this adds weight to speculation that the Poco F8 Pro could be a rebranded Redmi K90.
If that’s true, the F8 Pro could share the K90’s 6.59-inch 2K LTPO flat display with a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 3,500 nits of peak brightness.
Inside, the Redmi K90 runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chip with an Adreno 830 GPU, paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage.
The camera system includes a 50MP Light Hunter 800 main camera with OIS, an 8MP ultrawide lens, and a 50MP 2.5x telephoto periscope lens. Up front, there’s a 20MP selfie camera.
Keeping things running is a large 7,100mAh battery with 100W fast charging. For audio, it has dual stereo speakers tuned by Bose. Other notable features include Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance, and a 3D ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner.
