The phone will have a 6.83-inch AMOLED screen, a massive 6,500 mAh battery with 100 W charging capabilities, and a Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 processor. It’s also anticipated that the Poco M8 Pro 5G will come with a 50 MP main camera, potentially utilizing the f/1.6 and 1/1.55-inch sensor found in the original Redmi Note 15 Pro Plus sold in China.
