Tipster Paras Guglani (@passionategeekz) on X has shared the leaked price and storage variants of the upcoming Poco device. The tipster says that the Poco X8 Pro 5G will be priced at 33,999 for the 8GB RAM/256GB storage model and 37,999 for the 12GB RAM/256GB variant.

Meanwhile, the X8 Pro Max is said to cost 41,999 for the 12GB RAM/256GB storage model and 45,999 for the 12GB RAM/512GB storage variant.

The company is also confirmed to launch an Iron Man edition of the Poco X8 Pro, which is said to come at a price of 43,999 without offers and 40,999 with offers.

However, since Poco will only confirm the official prices of the devices during the launch event, these leaked prices should be taken with a pinch of salt.
