iQOO’s next flagship phone i.e. the iQOO Z1 is all set to go official on May 19. Ahead of the launch, the company is confirming the key specs of the smartphone. Yesterday, the company revealed its rear design and color variants. Today, the Chinese firm released two new posters on Weibo to confirm the battery size and charging capabilities of the iQOO Z1.
The iQOO Z1 will be coming with a large battery of 4,500mAh capacity and it will carry support for 44W ultra-fast flash charge technology. The iQOO Neo3 smartphone that went official last month also featured the same-sized battery and the same fast charging technology.
