3. The Poco F8 Ultra is expected to be more drop-resistant than the Poco F8 Pro.

Earlier this week, Xiaomi caught fans off guard by announcing that it will be rolling out the Poco F7 Pro and Poco F7 Ultra (currently $732 on Amazon) globally before the year wraps up. Shortly after, the company shared more insights about the upcoming Poco F8 Pro and Poco F8 Ultra, highlighting their use of top-tier Qualcomm technology. Recent leaks hinted that Xiaomi has chosen to equip the two models with the Snapdragon 8 Elite and Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipsets, respectively.

Details Awaiting Launch Day

It’s expected that Xiaomi will keep some information about these smartphones under wraps until the official launch. Meanwhile, leaker Sudhanshu Ambhore has provided details about the Poco F8 Ultra, having also shared insights about the Poco F8 Pro earlier today. According to the data shared, the Poco F8 Ultra is anticipated to be more durable against drops compared to the Poco F8 Pro, at least based on tests from the EU.

Battery Life Insights

In addition, the Poco F8 Ultra is projected to last nearly 4.5 hours longer between charges than its Pro counterpart. However, this gap in battery life might not be as significant in everyday use. While the Poco F8 Ultra is built on the foundation of the Redmi K90 Pro Max, it will not feature the latter’s 7,560 mAh battery.

Ambhore mentions that the Poco F8 Ultra will come with a 6,500 mAh battery, supporting 50 W for wireless charging and 100 W for wired charging. Interestingly, despite having a smaller battery, the Poco F8 Ultra is said to weigh a bit more than the Redmi K90 Pro Max. On the flip side, the Poco F8 Ultra is expected to launch on November 26, sporting all the camera capabilities of the Redmi K90 Pro Max, which includes 50 MP for the primary, ultra-wide, and telephoto lenses, with the latter offering a 5x optical zoom.
