Poco is adding another phone to its lower mid-range lineup. A new member of the M8 family has started showing up online, and it looks like it’s aimed squarely at people who want 5G at an affordable price.

The company has begun teasing the M8x 5G on Flipkart. The teaser reveals part of the rear design of the phone. Unlike the Poco M8 Power, it features a smaller camera island.

Based on the teaser, the device appears to have two rear camera cutouts. However, it wouldn’t be surprising if only one of those cameras turns out to be truly useful. For reference, the Poco M8 Power packs a 50MP main camera paired with a low-resolution auxiliary sensor.

The Poco logo sits right in the middle near the bottom. The flat middle frame also appears to have a gold accent, just like the camera module. Overall, it’s a pretty clean, straightforward look.

Beyond the rear design and the confirmation that it’s 5G, Poco hasn’t shared much else yet. Specs, price, and a firm launch date are still under wraps, though more details should drop in the next few days.

For context, the M8 Power has a 6.9-inch FHD+ AMOLED screen with 120Hz refresh rate, a Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 chip, an 8,000mAh battery, up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM, and 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage. It launched at ₹24,999. The upcoming M8x will probably land in a similar price range or a bit lower, sticking to Poco’s usual playbook of packing decent hardware into affordable phones.

The fact that a dedicated Flipkart page is already live usually means the official announcement isn’t far off. India’s budget 5G segment is already crowded, and the M8x looks set to jump into that mix with the usual focus on everyday performance, solid battery life, and no-frills design.
