POCO has officially reintroduced its F Series to the Vietnamese market after a two-year hiatus with the F8 Pro, a flagship-level smartphone positioned in the near-premium segment. The launch event coincided with its global release, underscoring POCO’s ambition to reclaim its presence in a fiercely competitive market. The brand’s representatives highlighted that the F8 Pro is built around three core elements: performance, design, and entertainment experience—traditional strengths of the F Series.
The POCO F8 Pro is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, manufactured on a 3nm process, paired with 12GB of RAM and up to 512GB of storage. It runs on Xiaomi HyperOS 3, ensuring stable performance for both work and entertainment needs. POCO has also focused on software enhancements through HyperOS, optimizing resource management and app interactions for a smoother user experience.
Design is another significant upgrade on the F8 Pro. It features a unibody glass back with a color-shifting effect and a metal frame, offering a more premium feel compared to previous generations. POCO has also added high-standard dust and water resistance, along with an increased battery capacity for extended usage. While the fast-charging technology remains impressive, the brand emphasizes quick charging times rather than specific numbers.
The 6.59-inch AMOLED display supports a 120Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision, and HDR10+, with three eye protection certifications from TÜV Rheinland. Another highlight is the dual stereo speaker system tuned by Bose.
The POCO F8 Pro features a triple-camera setup, including a 50MP primary camera with OIS, a 50MP telephoto camera with 2.5x optical zoom, and an 8MP ultra-wide camera. The 20MP front camera supports AI algorithms for skin tone and facial detail optimization. Combining hardware and HyperOS 3 processing algorithms, the device enhances focus speed, dynamic range, and video stabilization, making it ideal for quick shots or vlogging.
The device boasts a 6210mAh battery, one of the largest in its segment, supporting 100W HyperCharge for a full charge in approximately 37 minutes. It also offers 22.5W reverse charging for other devices.
Alongside the F8 Pro, POCO introduced the POCO Pad M1, a tablet designed for entertainment and learning. It features a large display, four speakers, and a high-capacity battery. Positioned as an extension of the Xiaomi ecosystem, the Pad M1 allows seamless data synchronization and connectivity between smartphones, tablets, and other Xiaomi devices.
The POCO F8 Pro is available for pre-order from November 26 and will go on sale starting December 1, 2025. The 12GB + 256GB variant is priced at 16,990,000 VND, with a promotional price of 15,990,000 VND. The 12GB + 512GB variant is priced at 19,990,000 VND, with a promotional price of 16,990,000 VND.
