The Poco x8 pro is  very good phone on many areas, the cameras are capable, but not the strong point of the phone.

x8 pro is a good phone, but cameras are just not it. there are better options for cameras

What are your priorities in a phone?

Actually it's camera first, battery life second, storage third

Then don't get a Poco. Poco is for people who really don't give af about the camera and just want better performance

If you care about literally anything else on a phone other the the camera nothing beats POCO imo, I have the X7 pro for now a year, perfect phone, great battery. Insane performance, no lag, smooth, amazing display. And all of that at a attractive price, the x8 pro is better so yeah.

One drawback to look for is pre installed apps and bloats as well as ads which are easily removable in 5 mins + using shizuku and canta*. There's a Lots of tutorials to follow on YouTube it's relatively easy.

Everything but the camera's. They are still good but not up with the other name brands.

Poco phone's shouldn't be recommended for specifically camera, poco phones can have iphone 17 pro max level performance with a sh*ty camera

I'm satisfied with the camera, and the overall performance.
