Poco has already launched four phones in its X8 family this year: the X8 Pro<\/a> and X8 Pro Max<\/a> in March, then the vanilla X8<\/a> and the X8 Power<\/a> in early September. A fifth one is reportedly coming, and today it moved a step closer to launch. A phone with the model number 2609CPC5FG has been approved by Singapore’s IMDA.<\/p>\n

The listing names Poco as the brand and Xiaomi Electronics as the applicant, and it describes the device as a 5G mobile phone with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and NFC. That’s all it says. The same model number has also shown up before in Europe’s EEC and IECEE databases, which didn’t reveal much either.<\/p>\n

\"Poco<\/p>\n

According to a report from last month, 2609CPC5FG will be sold as the Poco X8s. It’s said to come to Europe, Turkey, Russia, and other global markets, but not India. A Chinese variant with the model number M583CF will allegedly be sold under the Redmi brand. The “2609” part of the model number points to September 2026, so the phone is a bit late by that measure.<\/p>\n

Details on the hardware are still thin. The X8s is rumored to have a 50MP main camera, with 0.6x, 1x, and 2.5x zoom steps in the camera app. It’s unclear whether the 2.5x step comes from a dedicated telephoto or just a crop of the main sensor. A Geekbench run for the same model number revealed that it’s powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset paired with 12GB of RAM and runs Android 16. If that’s right, the X8s should be a better performer than the X8, which uses the Snapdragon 6s Gen 4.<\/p>\n

Of course, none of this is official yet, and Poco hasn’t said anything about the X8s. Pricing and a launch date are also unknown for now, but with this many certifications behind it, the phone shouldn’t be too far off.<\/p>\n
