Redmi Turbo 5 Likely to Launch Internationally as Poco X8 Pro After 3C Certification Appearance
Redmi Turbo 5, tipped to launch as Poco X8 Pro globally, has been spotted on the 3C certification site, signaling an imminent release. The listing under model number 2511FRT34C points to a China debut this month, with a global launch likely following under Poco branding. Leaks suggest the handset will feature MediaTek’s Dimensity 8500 chipset, a high-capacity battery (8,000–9,000mAh), and a metal frame with IP68 dust and water resistance. Certifications also reveal support for 100W fast charging, hinting at a high-performance device.
According to tipster Abhishek Yadav (@yabhishekhd) on X (formerly Twitter), the Redmi Turbo 5 could indeed make its global debut as the Poco X8 Pro, following the company’s strategy of rebranding its Turbo-series smartphones for international markets.

The phone’s Dimensity 8500 SoC is built on TSMC’s 3nm process, featuring an all-big core configuration: one Cortex-A725 at 3.4GHz, three additional A725 cores, and four efficiency-tuned A725 cores. Graphics duties are handled by the Mali-G720 GPU clocked at 1,500MHz, promising smooth performance for gaming and multitasking.
With its combination of a large battery, ultra-fast charging, and a premium metal build, the Redmi Turbo 5/Poco X8 Pro is shaping up to be a formidable mid-range contender. The official launch is expected soon, likely confirming these specifications and offering more details on pricing and availability.
