Xiaomi is reportedly preparing to introduce its next affordable flagship lineup, the Redmi K90 series. According to reports, the Redmi K90 Pro is expected to launch globally as the Poco F8 Ultra, and new leaks suggest it will pack a powerful, flagship-grade camera system. Here’s what we know so far.

Poco F8 Ultra To Get Flagship Camera Setup

According to Digital Chat Station, a well-known and reliable tipster on Weibo, the Poco F8 Ultra will feature an advanced periscope telephoto camera. Earlier reports indicated that this would be the Samsung ISOCELL JN5 sensor, a 50MP 1/2.76-inch sensor, previously seen in the Poco F7 Ultra.

However, Xiaomi is expected to pair the sensor with a periscope lens this time, allowing for a greater optical zoom range compared to the 2.5x zoom offered by its predecessor.

The leak also mentions that this periscope sensor will be accompanied by a 50MP primary camera featuring a 1/1.3-inch sensor, which is significantly larger than the one used in the F7 Ultra. This main camera was previously rumoured to be the OVX9500 sensor, hinting at improved light capture and detail quality.

Meanwhile, a past report from XiaomiTime suggested that Xiaomi will use the OV50M sensor, another 50MP sensor with a 1/2.88-inch size for the ultrawide shooter. This marks a clear upgrade from the 32MP 1/3.42-inch ultrawide camera on the Poco F7 Ultra, promising sharper and wider field-of-view images.

Digital Chat Station also added that the Poco F8 Ultra could include support for telephoto macro photography, a feature that enables users to take detailed close-up shots without physically moving closer to the subject.

Poco F8 Ultra – Expected Launch Timeline

Xiaomi has not yet revealed official details about this Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered flagship. However, reports suggest that the Redmi K90 Pro and consequently the Poco F8 Ultra will debut in October 2025.

If these leaks hold true, the Poco F8 Ultra is shaping up to be one of the most camera-focused smartphones in the Poco lineup. It also means the phone will be offering a versatile triple setup with high-end optical zoom, improved low-light performance, and macro capabilities, all at a potentially more accessible price point.
