"XR" was always supposed to be for their top tools/batteries. New tech has shifted the battery tiers so relabeling makes sense.
Originally "XR" on a tool meant pro grade brushless for extra runtime and reliability (daily use). In a battery it originally meant higher current and capacity, often from a second parallel set of 18650 cylindrical cells ("2P5S" = 10 cells).
The 8AH PowerPack XR (DCB2108) is using 21700 cylindrical cells but so was the 8AH XR (DCB208) it replaces. The Samsung INR21700-40T cells in the DCB208 are switched out for some new "tab-less" cells in the DCB2108. The "tabs" it refers to are internal to the cell so they should be the same physical size (21700) and capacity (8AH total) but higher current. Maybe now it'll finally hit harder than the 6AH XR with 10x INR21700-30T cells.
Yes, 30T is lower capacity, higher current compared to 40T. Those same monster 30T cells are in the 9AH FlexVolt (3P5S; 15 cells), which explains why it does even better in 20V Max tools.
One minor correction: PowerPack is launching with XR branding, not rebranding with it. Ignoring the "PowerDetect" and "FlexVolt Advantage" nonsense that's on the way out, the "boost" any tool might get from an XR battery is usually just that they could've used the extra current all along.
For increasing current at the same voltage:
Different formulas in the same physical cell size can trade capacity for current (30T>40T>50S).
Physically larger cells increase current (21700 vs 18650).
More parallel cells increase current (6P5S 15AH FlexVolt with 30x 18650 cells versus 2P5S 5AH XR with a third of the same cells).
Tab-less cells increase current (8AH PowerPack XR versus 8AH XR).
Stacks of pouch cells with their wide tabs increase current (PowerStack).
There is an ID pin that distinguishes old 1P batteries from higher current (generally 2P+) batteries but even that doesn't align with the XR/non-XR badging or any of the PDetect/FV Advantage stuff. Heavy duty tools probably use it to reject a 1.3AH battery from a Black Friday drill bundle.
Distilling all that down:
6AH XR, 9AH FlexVolt, and 5AH PowerStack have been the beasts of the 20V Max line for a couple years now. We'll see if the new 8AH PowerPack XR will join them.
Eventually we'll get the AI-enhanced Pro Plus Max Ultra HD Double-X Platinum S 5G Red Edition Prime and it'll blow everything out of the water!

Mine both came with one bar remaining on the charge indicator. One is currently on the basic (and ubiquitous) DCB107 and the other is on a revised DCB118 (two-stage fan-cooled 8AH fast charger). Both were charging fine when I left to work.

Always charge a fully drained battery ASAP! Lots of people leaving fully drained batteries over the winter find they won't take a charge when they need to use the blower, trimmer, or mower for the first time in months.

When I called ahead to confirm, they said none were available and "reallocated to online stock". I decided to visit nonetheless since it's 10 minutes away. They had the batteries, but were tucked away on overhead shelves.
Suwanee, GA had 3 in stock at the time of this posting if someone in the vicinity is interested. Happy huntin'.
The Home Depot just might be silly enough to move 'em out for style/rebranding but that's a huge hit to take. There's a fresh round of claims that they are dropping DeWALT all together but I've been hearing that for two years now.
