POCO X8 Pro x Iron Man Confirmed Again: The Launch Is Just Around the Corner

The new smartphones in the X series are approaching their debut, but there are more hints about the Marvel-themed special edition than about the classic versions. POCO X8 Pro has appeared again in a certification, but this time it’s the Iron Man Edition, dedicated to the famous MCU character.

Everything suggests that the launch is just around the corner, and perhaps we already know quite a bit about Xiaomi’s upcoming models.

POCO X8 Pro Iron Man Edition getting closer to debut: what can we expect from the next mid-range

The new POCO X8 Pro Iron Man Edition has been certified by the NBTC authority both with the commercial name and with the code 2511FPC34G. In fact, this is not the first time we talk about the X8 Pro’s special edition: the device was teased by another certification dating back to December.

Over the weeks a lot has changed and we can now sketch a clear profile of the phone. The Marvel-themed edition’s design remains a mystery while the standard POCO X8 Pro’s look may have already been shown.

The bond between POCO and Redmi is very close, and the next X series should not be an exception either. In China, the launch of Redmi Turbo 5 is awaited, and in the meantime the company has started warming up with the first renders (and more). The device has also been spotted on Geekbench with the Dimensity 8500, MediaTek’s latest mid-range chipset.

Our POCO X8 Pro should be the Western rebrand of the Redmi device; moreover there would also be POCO X8 Pro Max. Returning to the Marvel character edition, this is not the first time the series has introduced a similar addition: already POCO X7 Pro debuted in the Iron Man Edition (which, however, did not arrive officially in Italy).
