POCO Flagship: India Gets the Heat
POCO isn't sitting idle. Their new flagship for India is confirmed with the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 or 9500s variants. POCO X8 series known for flagship killers, and this one fits the bill.
Expect a 6.7-inch OLED screen with 144Hz refresh, perfect for gaming. The Dimensity 8500 version might target the sub-₹40,000 segment, while the 9500s one goes premium. Cameras include a 64MP primary with OIS, and battery life is boosted by the chip's efficiency.
POCO X8 is adding unique features like customizable RGB lights and vapor chamber cooling. These help during long gaming sessions. The launch is expected in April 2026, after OPPO. With aggressive pricing, POCO could disrupt the market. It’s a great option for a high-spec phone at a lower price.
Performance: Benchmarks Speak
Let's talk numbers. The MediaTek Dimensity 9500s scores around 2.5 million on AnTuTu, beating Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 in some tests. Geekbench? Single-core at 2,800, multi-core over 10,000. For the Dimensity 8500, it's about 1.8 million on AnTuTu – still impressive for its class.
In real life, this means seamless 4K editing, AR experiences, and ultra-smooth scrolling. Both chips are compatible with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage, which means apps load in seconds. Heating is also well managed using a vapor cooling solution, making for one of the best in its class.
Battery Life and Efficiency Wins
All-Day Battery Without the Worry:
-
Optimized power usage helps battery life save , especially during idle time
-
Longer screen time for heavy users with fewer charging breaks
-
Smart charging support protects battery health over time
-
Safer overnight charging with adaptive charging algorithms.
Camera Magic with AI Boost
Cameras are a big deal. The MediaTek flagship chipset lineup enables pro-level photography. For OPPO Find X9s, AI scene detection auto-tweaks settings for perfect shots. Low-light performance? Enhanced by the NPU's noise reduction.
POCO X8 series might add fun filters and video stabilization. Both phones support 8K video at 30fps, thanks to the ISP (Image Signal Processor) in these chips.
Launch Dates and What to Expect
MediaTek announced these chipsets in January 2026. The OPPO Find X9s India launch
is expected to launch in India in March, with pre-orders starting soon. POCO’s flagship phone may launch in April, possibly at a big event in Mumbai.
Dimensity 9500s phones such as this one from OPPO would be excellent but value-focused handsets in terms of price. POCO X8 series Dimensity 8500 phones will be cheaper as well, they are likely to cost between ₹30,000 and ₹50,000.
Why This Matters in 2026
In 2026, AI and 5G are growing fast. The MediaTek Dimensity 9500s and 8500 bring flagship performance at lower prices. MediaTek now competes directly with top-end chips.
For India, there are options like OPPO Find X9s and the upcoming POCO X8 series that offer flexibility at lower prices. Creators get faster AI features. Gamers enjoy smooth performance. Average users receive more efficiency and extended battery life. This is a win for consumers and forces brands to innovate at an accelerated pace.
