In this article, I will discuss everything you need to know about the POCO M8s, including its official price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.

Key Highlights

POCO has officially launched the M8s in Nepal as its latest mid-range smartphone.
The POCO M8s starts at NPR 37,999 for the 6/128GB model and NPR 44,999 for the 8/256GB variant.
The smartphone aims to deliver a balanced everyday experience with a focus on battery life and smooth performance.
The POCO M8s is now available for purchase through authorized Xiaomi stores across Nepal.

POCO M8s Overview

Design and Display

Starting with the design, the POCO M8s brings the modern flat-frame layout with a clear vertically placed camera island that sports a triple-lens layout along with the LED Flash. Here, you get the option to choose between “White" and “Black” finishes, and it also has the IP64 rating against dust and water splashes, adding an extra layer of durability to your phone for long-term everyday use.

Up front, the phone features a large 6.9-inch FHD+ IPS display so that the visuals on the screen remain sharper. It also has an 850 nits peak brightness, which is decent enough for outdoor visibility, but that's it. Besides that, this M8s has a smooth 144Hz refresh rate, so you should experience smooth gameplay while playing games, along with a smooth scrolling experience while using social media.

Additionally, it also has the triple TUV Rheinland certification in this phone to give protection to your eyes and let you use it for extended hours without worrying much.

Performance and Software

Under the hood, the POCO M8s uses the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 (6nm) chipset, which we saw in phones like the Motorola Moto G45 5G and Moto G85 5G. So, this phone should deliver a similar kind of everyday performance in areas like gaming, multitasking, and web browsing. While it is not built for intensive flagship performance, we can expect the basic day-to-day workload management to be decent.

If you are looking at this phone as an option for gaming, then it might not be the best option, though POCO claims to offer smooth gameplay performance in low to medium-graphic settings for games like PUBG and Free Fire. However, AAA games like “Genshin Impact” might not give the same experience.

Memory-wise, this phone comes with up to 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and up to 256GB of UFS 2.2 internal storage, and you can also expand the RAM up to 16GB. On the software front, M8s runs on the HyperOS based on Android 15—which is two generations behind—as Android 17 has already hit the market.

Camera and Battery

For photography, the POCO M8s opts for a 50MP primary rear camera and pairs it with an auxiliary sensor. With this setup, this phone should deliver decent shots in good lighting, while you might not find the same result in low-light shots. At the front, you get an 8MP selfie shooter for video calls and selfies. However, there are other phones like the Redmi Note 15 5G and Honor X8c with better cameras that you can consider in the same price bracket if you are looking for a mid-range phone for photography.

In terms of battery, the M8s packs a massive 7000mAh cell, making it one of the major highlights of this phone that POCO claims to last for more than a day for casual use. It also supports 33W wired fast charging as well as 18W reverse wired charging to quickly top up your device. Apart from this, it also has stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support so that you get an immersive audio experience when watching movies on this phone.
