Poco M8x

Not out yet. Here is when we think it lands, and exactly why we think so.

Reveal

The day it is shown to the world

Good guess · Right month, maybe not the day

6 September 2026

in about 3 weeks

Almost certainly between 21 August and 30 September 2026 — that is where eight out of ten of our guesses land.

Where it will almost certainly land Still possible, but unlikelyThe higher the shape, the more likely that date.
Where we started When Xiaomi usually launches No pattern for this model yet, so we started from the time of year Xiaomi normally picks.
Reports behind it 2 separate stories Found across 2 articles. When several sites repeat the same leak, we count it once — otherwise one rumour would look like proof.
Since last time No change Last worked out on 19 Aug 2026. We recheck every day.

Where you will be able to buy it

Likely one region first Based on how this product line usually launches

This line usually starts in one market and travels later, if it travels at all.

only India reported so far.

India around 21 Aug 2026 ± 15 days from ₹20,000 Reported 1 source
across 2 reports, they roughly agree

These are the places that have actually been mentioned in reports about this phone. A country missing from this list has not been ruled out — nobody writing about an unreleased phone lists the countries it is skipping, so we cannot tell either way.
