Repair parts Xiaomi Poco M8 5G
Receive it on tomorrow friday 30 october
In this category you will find spare parts for the Xiaomi Poco M8 5G, the 6.77-inch model with Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 that Xiaomi launched in January 2026. On the outside it is practically a Redmi Note 15 5G with a different finish, so some components work in both and others do not. Here we explain what fits, which variant is suitable in each case and what you need to check before placing your order.
The global Poco M8 5G carries the code 25118PC98G and shares its chassis with the Redmi Note 15 5G
The international version of the device is sold under the model code 25118PC98G and uses the internal name kunzite, identical to the Redmi Note 15 5G. You can check this code in Settings, under About phone, or on the label on the box. It is worth checking before buying, as the M8 family includes other models with very similar names.
The one that causes the most confusion is the Poco M8 Pro 5G, code 2510EPC8BG. This is a different device and its parts are not compatible with the M8. The global Redmi Note 15 5G, on the other hand, has the same dimensions (7.35 mm and 178 g) and an identical camera module design, although not everything can be swapped:
- Screen: both use the same panel, which is why the Redmi Note 15 5G one appears in this category.
- Main camera: not interchangeable. The Poco uses a 50 MP sensor, while the Redmi uses a 108 MP one.
- Back cover: the Poco's has two dark strips on the sides that make it easily distinguishable from the Redmi's.
A 6.77-inch AMOLED panel at 120 Hz, shared by the Poco M8 5G and the Redmi Note 15 5G
Out of the box, the Poco M8 5G comes with a 6.77-inch AMOLED panel with a 2392 x 1080 pixel resolution, a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz and peak brightness of 3200 nits. Since the Redmi Note 15 5G uses the same panel, the complete screen for Redmi Note 15 5G and Poco M8 5G is suitable for your phone, even though the product reference shows the Redmi model.
We currently have it available in Premium quality, a compatible spare part that is usually priced below an original one. It lets you restore the display and touch functionality at a modest cost, whether you are repairing your own phone or working in a busy workshop.
The point to watch out for is unlocking. The optical fingerprint reader on the Poco M8 5G sits under the screen and reads through the panel, so its performance depends on the panel you install. If you use fingerprint unlock daily, check the panel technology in the product details and whether it states that it is compatible with the reader before buying.
Two back covers for the Xiaomi Poco M8 5G: panel only or with camera frame
The back of the Poco M8 5G is distinguished by the two dark strips on the sides, which the Redmi Note 15 5G does not have. If you want the phone to keep its original look, choose a cover specific to the Poco. There are two variants in the listing and they differ in what they include:
- The back cover for the Poco M8 5G, currently available in Original quality, is just the back panel. It is useful when the camera frame and its glass are intact and can be reused.
- The complete back cover with camera frame, currently available in OEM quality and in Black and Green, comes with the camera module frame already integrated. This means you do not have to transfer that frame from the old cover to the new one.
To decide, check the condition of the camera trim. If it is intact, the panel alone is enough. If it is broken or peeling off, the complete version replaces both parts at once and the finish looks more uniform.
The Poco M8 5G and the Redmi Note 15 5G do not use the same sensor: 50 MP versus 108 MP
The rear camera of the Poco M8 5G features a 50 MP main sensor (Light Fusion 400, f/1.8) along with a 2 MP depth camera. Although the module looks identical to the Redmi Note 15 5G on the outside, the sensor is not: the Redmi uses a 108 MP one, so its camera is not a suitable spare part for the Poco.
For this model you have two parts available, depending on where the damage is:
- The 50 MP rear main camera for Poco M8 5G, currently available in Original quality, replaces the main sensor module.
- The rear camera lens for the Poco M8 5G, also in Original quality, is the outer glass covering the sensors. If only the glass has broken and the camera still focuses, this is the most affordable option.
The 45 W charging and 18 W reverse charging both go through the USB-C port on the Xiaomi Poco M8 5G
The Poco M8 5G supports 45 W fast charging and can deliver power to other devices over cable at 18 W, always through that same USB-C connector. If that connector fails, you lose regular charging, reverse charging and wired connection to your computer at the same time.
The USB charging port for Poco M8 5G is currently available in OEM quality. Next to it you will find the mainboard connection flex for Poco M8 5G, in Original quality, which links the mainboard with the rest of the phone's components. Before ordering, compare the photos in the product details with the part on your phone to see which area each spare part covers, especially if you repair different M8 family models in your workshop.
Most commonly asked about the Poco M8 5G: Redmi Note 15 5G, fingerprint reader and model code
Are Redmi Note 15 5G parts compatible with my Poco M8 5G?
It depends on the component. The screen is identical on both models, which is why you find it in this category. The main camera is not compatible, as the Poco uses a 50 MP sensor and the Redmi uses a 108 MP one. The Poco's back cover has its own finish, with dark strips on the sides.
Will the fingerprint reader still work after replacing the screen?
The Poco M8 5G uses an optical reader located under the panel, so it works based on the screen you install. Check the panel technology in the spare part details and whether it states fingerprint compatibility. Test the reader before sealing the phone.
How do I tell the Poco M8 5G apart from the Poco M8 Pro 5G?
Check the code in Settings, under About phone. The global Poco M8 5G is 25118PC98G, while the M8 Pro 5G is 2510EPC8BG. Parts for one are not compatible with the other.
Will the phone remain water resistant after the repair?
The Poco M8 5G comes from the factory with an IP dust and water resistance rating, and that protection depends on the original seal. Once the phone has been opened, it cannot be guaranteed. If this concerns you, seal the phone with new adhesive.
