Poco is preparing to expand its X-series lineup in India with the upcoming Poco X8 Pro series. The company has already confirmed that the lineup will include the Poco X8 Pro Max 5G and the Poco X8 Pro 5G, both scheduled to launch later this month.
Now, a teaser from the Xiaomi sub-brand suggests that a special Iron Man Edition of the series may also arrive in India.
Iron Man Edition Teased Ahead Of Launch
In a recent post on X, Poco hinted at the arrival of an Iron Man-themed variant of one of its X-series phones. The company did not reveal the exact model name, but tech blogger Paras Guglani (@PassionateGeekz) claims the special edition will be based on the upcoming Poco X8 Pro series.
All we have to say is, it’s D***S day for all the BS because we are going full throttle with power.
Stay tuned to know more!

Marketing material shared by the tipster shows the phone with an Iron Man insignia on the rear panel, along with a Stark Industries mark. The device appears in a black finish, with Poco branding positioned in the top-right corner of the back panel.
The leak also suggests the phone could ship in a themed retail box and may include a custom phone case as part of the package.
Poco X8 Pro Series Price in India
Separately, tipster Yogesh Brar (@heyitsyogesh) has shared expected pricing details for the upcoming lineup.
According to the tip, the Poco X8 Pro Max 5G could start at around ₹42,000 in India. The standard Poco X8 Pro 5G is said to launch with a starting price of roughly ₹35,000.
If these figures turn out to be accurate, the Poco X8 Pro 5G would arrive at a noticeably higher price than its predecessor. For reference, the Poco X7 Pro 5G launched in India in January 2025 with a starting price of ₹27,999 for the base 8GB and 256GB configuration.
Launch Date And Key Specifications
The Poco X8 series is scheduled to launch in India on March 17. Once available, the phones will be sold through Flipkart.
Poco has already confirmed some of the key specifications. The Poco X8 Pro 5G will run on a 4nm octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Ultra processor and pack a 6,500mAh battery.
The Poco X8 Pro Max 5G is expected to feature a 3nm octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 9500s chip along with a larger 9,000mAh battery.
More details about the lineup should become clearer as the launch date approaches.
