Vivo‘s sub-brand for premium smartphones, iQOO, which has already launched a few devices in the market, is all set to launch its next-generation flagship smartphone named iQOO 3 on 25th February in China as well as in India.

Ahead of the phone’s official launch, several key specifications and features of the smartphone have been confirmed by the company. Now, in the latest development, the device has appeared on AnTuTu benchmark, registering the highest ever score.

The iQOO 3 has scored 597,583 points on AnTuTu, making it the highest scoring smartphone on the benchmarking platform so far. Currently, ASUS ROG Phone 2 has been ranked at the top in terms of performance with a score of 507,051.

Along with that, a new leak related to the device also confirms the battery specifications of the upcoming flagship smartphone. It has been confirmed to come with 4,440mAh battery along with 55W ultra-fast flash charge technology. It is claimed to charge the phone up to 50 percent in just 15 minutes.

While the company has not yet revealed the full specifications of iQOO 3, the TENAA listing of the phone has revealed almost everything. It features a 6.44-inch S-AMOLED display with a punch-hole screen that will offer full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2,400 pixels, an aspect ratio of 20:9 and 120Hz refresh rate.

The phone is expected to come powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC along with 6/8/12 GB of RAM and could be the first smartphone in the world to arrive with the latest UFS 3.1 storage technology.

It will be running the latest Android 10 operating system out of the box. As for the camera, the device could come with a front-faxing camera of 16-megapixel while the rear shell of the device has a 48-megapixel quad-camera system.

As iQOO 3 is set to debut on 25th February in China as well as India, we expect the company to launch a 4G-only variant as well, at least in the Indian market where the 5G infrastructure deployment is yet to take place.
